Until we see a major, society-changing breakthrough in artificial intelligence, robot lawyers won’t dispute the finer points of copyright law or write elegant legal briefs. But chatbots could be very useful in more straightforward areas of law…
Two movies are my favourites: Star Wars: Rogue 1 and Star Wars – The Last Jedi. What fascinated me the most was the power of humans to reach any supra-mental level and behave like gods, humans, and machines at the same time. What I saw was that besides true intelligence which people view as intangible, the Star Wars franchise propagated that the future lays in intelligence that was tangible and artificial. And, I could very well relate that to the Bhagavad Gita, with Lord Krishna himself delving into this topic when he preaches to his disciple Arjuna, that humans are perishable but not the soul and the soul takes forms differently in different times and migrates into a higher version of forms. Similarly, the intelligence in the universe is not intangible but takes forms from time to time varying from humans to machines, with both having the ability to think. With this, I became interested in the world of artificial intelligence and how it can make human lives a lot simpler, especially in the legal world.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is designing machines that have the ability to think. It is the intelligence of machines. The discussions about the importance of artificial intelligence in our lives have gained momentum in recent years. Whether it is a boon or a bane to the future of human existence is an ongoing debate? The very idea of creating artificial intelligence is to make the lives of humans easier. Researchers of artificial intelligence want to bring in emotional quotient to machines along with general intelligence.
