Should courtroom juries be replaced by A.I. for a less-biased adjudication? For that matter, should an A.I. judge - the "just machine" (in Donald Fagen's 1982 hit song I.G.Y.) - replace human judges to reduce bias and ensure proper justice is levied? Would such an evolution be allowed under the Constitution? Would lawyers then become A.I. in order to properly and more fully present their cases? If the whole process is run by A.I., court cases could be completely resolved in a fraction of the time it currently takes in the human system. What would be the impact on society of "instant justice" under the ubiquity of legal precedent and history available to A.I.?
