Society needs to consider ‘urgently’ how to ‘preserve the fundamentals of justice for humans’ in the ‘machine age’ of artificial intelligence (AI), the Master of the Rolls, Sir Geoffrey Vos has warned
Speaking at the Old Bailey last week, Sir Geoffrey said: ‘Human judges must be central to final justice decisions affecting people’s lives.’
He called for ‘an expedited resolution of several knotty, even existential, questions’, namely, what decisions should always be made by humans, when should an individual or business be able to consent to a machine-made judicial decision, and what rules of technologically verified evidence should be adopted?
