Episode notes
Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the world as we know it, including the American justice system. With the advent of advanced algorithms to enhance predictive decision-making for police work and parole hearings, there is a growing debate between factions seeking new efficiencies for these systems and those concerned that human bias will produce machines that will continuously violate civil liberties.
Legal scholar Dr. Ryan Copus – who focuses his work on the application of AI to the justice system – joins Radius of Reason to discuss the role of AI in the legal system, whether or not AI can be biased, and if a robot will be sending you to prison sometime soon.
