Let's have a bit of a guessing game.
We all know lawyers are on the hit list, eventually, for AI. Will they be completely eliminated?
That is the question.
So do you think AI will completely eliminate the need for lawyers, if so, when, and why?

I was thinking to myself that humans would still have an edge in detecting the inflection in peoples voices. But hey, put a good mic in them and and an intelligent robot might even surpass us at that.

I am in the camp that what humans can do better than machines/computers gets smaller by the day.
We are at the peak, right now of what we can do better than computers. Tomorrow, there will be a little less. They are rapidly improving their skills; us not as much.

I think AI along with other things will get rid of lawyers. After all, if code is law, why do we need lawyers? Obviously there is a lot more out there than smart contracts so this will take a while.
I think lawyers will be pretty much gone by 2040.

I think there was a electronic block chain for smaller court related stuff. Supposedly you get an anonymous internet jury.

Yes I remember that. I guess it is still being developed. Obviously there will be a lot still that needs to be done. But with each area, it eats a way a bit into what these people do.
Enough paper cuts can be fatal.

I do not think they will completely be eliminated. Why? Because people will never fully relegate control over to AIs. I think most of them will probably be replaced though. And to be frank there are too many lawyers who are not good at their job. I learned a lot and you would want a body language expert to help you pick your jury. If you don't, your doing a disservice to your client.

That is true, there are a lot who are awful at what they do. Of course, in the US there are a ton of them so not all can be good.
As for trusting AI, that is now. I wonder if this will change in the future. I guess it depends upon how things progress in that field. If we come up with some dependable stuff, I think people will rely upon it.

I think AI will replace the bad lawyers. Because they will still rely on good lawyers since they can bring out points that the AIs have a hard time adapting to. After all, it all depends on people's understanding of the issue.

True but isnt that the case since that is all we had to depend upon. We never really had anything else to depend upon. Thus could AI or synthetic viewpoints/understanding end up even exceeding our capacity of understanding?

I think some people overestimate how much we can really trust humans vs AI. If you get technical, trust has a lot to do with predictability and AI is a lot more predictable than any human being will ever be.

Look how we trust our bank accounts and all other things we get. Most of the bills we pay are based upon computer calculations. Does anyone think our electric bill is manually computed?
We are just going to keep edging forward in this area without realizing how much we truly trust it. It will just keep growing.

I think they could be replaced one day but for that to happen, I think the whole legal system would have to be changed first. I think a complete substitution will take a few decades still but there will be a transition period where lawyers will be relieved of a lot of their attributions.
As an example, this morning I had to get out of my house to get a "verified copy" (I don't know the proper English translation) of some of my documents so I could give them to a lawyer that's taking care of some stuff for me. And it cost me some ridiculous amount of money considering it's a sheet of paper with a stamp on it.
If we had a blockchain with a decent AI for that, I wouldn't even have to leave my bed this morning.
That kind of thing would be replaced in a blink of an eye.

Yes we would see a lot of things changed about the legal system but technology is starting to change our system, something I question as to whether the law is catching up with or not.
In fact I think it is falling further behind.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's definitely way behind.
This data thing is a small portion of what technology is bringing and it already meant a lot of trouble law wise. The gap is enormous

I imagine AI would speed things up but I wouldn't feel comfortable being represented by a machine, what if the machine all of a sudden goes: "fudge it, he's guilty AF" :)))

With you, it is likely you are so justice would be served. LOL

Good thing you are not my lawyer lol :)))

I am not an AI either. So you are safe on both counts.
