WTF: Ki-Vatar as “lawyer” before New York Court

Artificial Intelligence (AI) no longer stops in the judicial sector. The import of automation technology in the legal world does not run smoothly. Around March 26, it was shown in the first judicial department of the court of justice of New York State. Under a light-riddled glass dome, a judge wanted to listen to an American citizen named Jerome Developed. In a labor law dispute against the insurance company, he complains of a kind to an alleged arbitration section in his job contract.

The plaintiff clearly wanted to save a lawyer and still left a permanent impression. This strategy only acted partially. “The complainant presented a video for his argument,” said Judge Salli Manznet-Daniel According to the recording of the session published on YouTube In theory, a visual -visual is open to insert. “Okay. We will hear this video now.”

But the show takes only a few seconds. On the screen, a smiling, almost suspected young men are with a well hairstyle, shirts and sweaters appear on it. This figure humbly congratulates the court and presents himself as “a modest representative” on his behalf to a body of “five respected judges”. But despite the flattery, the stant tree comes as a hindrance, as the presiding judge AI pleases the roast. “Ah, ah”, the orange-daniel shows briefly. “Stop!” The order and asks: “Is this lawyer in the incident?”

Judge leads on the nose

“I made it. It’s not a real person,” Developed says stuttering like a guilty student in a bad sketch. From there this is to be misunderstood: The complainant has sent an avatar into the race with the help of AI. “I don’t appreciate being misled,” explains the judge. He had to clarify whether he may need illness and support. “Do not use a court room for the presentation of a professional idea”, agree with the charter-deniel riots. Then she becomes loud: “Close it.”

The judge gives the complainant to tell about things for five minutes. The old gentlemen are looking for a solution on their smartphone. Over -times he taps on his cell phone and stutches some chunks. After all, he catches himself and still brings his case smoothly without taking the audience with a rhetoric fireworks.

“You finished me enough”

One thing is clear: According to the current legal status, AI should not represent a citizen in court in Germany. The lawyer’s compulsion, ability and lack of responsibilities, often have hallucinations for generative chatbott and require personal conversations against it. In the United States, the situation is more complex and still in flow. In general, however, it also applies here that AI is currently not allowed to talk to a citizen in court. In many cases, technology already serves as a tool for human lawyers, but not as replacement. In 2023, two American advocates had to pay a fine in New York as they invented a fictional example that chat was invented.

Associated press agency Explained the developmentHe initially applied for permission to play the video recorded from the court. He then made an avatar using a solution from a tech company from San Francisco. He should actually look at him equally, but he could not do so before hearing. The complainant now knows that he did not have a bright idea: “The court was very angry about it. They prepared me a lot.” A new decision in his case did not exist until the end of the week.
