What most of us didn&#8217;t expect on top of everything else is\u2026 robot lawyers? <br><br>We&#8217;ve all heard and anticipated that one day, artificial intelligence will take over the world. Whether it&#8217;s completely ludicrous or not, we can&#8217;t deny that <strong>AI is rapidly morphing into something beyond what we ever thought was possible<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next month, a robot &#8220;lawyer&#8221; heads into the courtroom to help a defendant battle a traffic ticket. This creation is the first of its kind and marks the beginning of the future of artificial intelligence performing human tasks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This robot actually runs on a smartphone. It listens to conversations and arguments held in court and formulates responses that the defendant can use. Through headphones, the AI creation tells the defendant what to say. Woah!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"997\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/DoNotPay.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/DoNotPay.png 997w, https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/DoNotPay-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/DoNotPay-768x394.png 768w, https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/DoNotPay-600x308.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 997px) 100vw, 997px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using tech for the first time in the courtroom definitely won&#8217;t come without judgment and skepticism, and the concept is fascinating and scary all at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If the robot loses its case, its company- <a href=\"https:\/\/donotpay.com\">DoNotPay<\/a>, will cover the fines<\/strong>. The good news for some is that the tech isn&#8217;t yet legal in most courtrooms. Each state has different rules, and most require that every party consent to being recorded. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a robot lawyer would involve a lot of work just to get the case going, and in fact, only two courtrooms were found feasible in a trial conducted by DoNotPay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CEO of the company is hoping the new tech helping defendants will encourage courts to change their rules. While they&#8217;re hopeful, they still have a lot to work out.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The ultimate goal of these AI-powered &#8220;robot attorneys&#8221; is to help people on a budget afford legal representation<\/strong>. We all know that hiring real lawyers can dig deep into our pockets. Because courts aren&#8217;t even close to ready to change their rules, the CEO of DoNotPay doesn&#8217;t expect the tech to commercialize in the near future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a short-term scale, he&#8217;s hoping AI lawyers will open the door to a system change.
