UK Judge Backs AI in Court Cases

judge geoffrey vos, soon to retire as master of the rolls, thinks ai could help resolve civil disputes more rapidly and cost-effectively. he visited a court in shenzhen, china, where ai-assisted judges are already deciding cases. vos uses microsoft copilot for tasks like document location and text summarization. however, there are concerns about ai hallucinating case law and lawyers misusing the technology. vos suggests drawing a line on ai use, with human judges handling complicated cases.
