Answer:
Answer:
The author begins with an examination of the possible reasons why robots could replace our Chief Justices or the Judges in our Judicial system.
He outlines corruption as one possible reason and the tendency to be unbiased given that one of the most important roles/attributes of a Judge is to sit in a hearing and give an unbiased judgement. Also, he speaks to the superiority of AI in predicting the court rulings - about 75% compared to a 59% prediction of humans.
Conversely, he stresses that regardless of its ability to be unbiased, give razor-sharp judgements based on logic (untainted by human emotions), Artificially Intelligent Robots were still going to be limited.
The reasons are:
1. The essence of the law is not logic but experience. Several landmark cases which get to the Supreme court have already run out of guidance usually provided by precedence. As such, an AI judge can't give any incontrovertible ruling on such matters
2. There also arises the question about whether people would rather have a human judge than a robotic judge. The answer, at least in the short run would be in the negative.
Conclusively, human will always be preferred to AIs as judges.
