Some Speculation about Artificial Intelligence and Legal Reasoning

Classics

JOINDER OF CLAIMS, COUNTERCLAIMS, AND CROSS-COMPLAINTS: SUGGESTED REVISION OF THE CALIFORNIA PROVISIONS. Research in artificial intelligence, a branch of computer science, has illuminated our capacity to use computers to model human thought processes. In this Article we will argue that the time has come for serious interdisciplinary work between lawyers and computer scientists to explore the computer's potential in law. Interdisciplinary work between the lawyer and the computer scientist has floundered on the misconceptions that each has of the other's discipline. As a result, no one has yet attempted computer programs incorporating complex techniques of legal reasoning. Even efforts in legal information retrieval have been hampered by these misconceptions. In retrieval, lawyers have viewed the computer as, at most, a storehouse from which cases and statutes might be retrieved by skillfully designed indexing systems. But the lawyer rarely looks for, or even expects, clear answers. So far, the efforts in legal retrieval have given little consideration to the possibility that computers might operate on the legal data base the way a lawyer does. Yet the work in both fields law and computer science -,suggests that the computer modeling of legal reasoning would be a fruitful area for research. In this Article we speculate about the dimensions and possible directions of this research. Under the most promising of outcomes, interdisciplinary research could lead both to a greater understanding of the legal reasoning process and to the design of machine methods for performing parts of it. The prospect of using computers to model legal reasoning processes is likely to prompt a typically lawyer-like response: So what if we understand legal reasoning or legal argument formation better? Knowing more about the ways in which lawyers search and manipulate the legal data base might lead to improving the lawyer's skill at his work. We recognize the possibility that the work of many lawyers might actually involve little use of the legal data base for argument construction or dispute resolution.



AI: Will artificial intelligence ever rival human thinking? - MarketExpress

#artificialintelligence

Some of the world's most advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems, at least the ones the public hear about, are famous for beating human players at chess or poker. Other algorithms are known for their ability to learn how to recognize cats or their inability to recognize people with darker skin. But are current AI systems anything more than toys? Sure, their ability to play games or identify animals is impressive, but does this help toward creating useful AI systems? To answer this, we need to take a step back and question what the goals of AI are.

Time is a critical context for understanding how things function. It serves as the digital history for businesses. When you think about institutional knowledge, that's not just bound up in people. Data is part of that knowledge base as well. So, when companies can capture, store and analyze that data in an effective way, it produces better results.


EAB - Why Deepfakes aren't the Real Challenge for Remote Biometrics

#artificialintelligence

Suddenly, deepfakes are questioning the integrity of automated identity verification, which undeniably is the way to go for securing trust and efficiency in our digitized world. With money laundering and identity theft at stake, sophisticated anti-spoofing measures are required. While liveness detection is a trusted mechanism to secure the real user's presence, deepfakes are now creating new attack vectors. What are deepfakes even and what can biometrics do against them? And are they the real challenge for identity verification?


Azerbaijan to develop national artificial intelligence strategy

#artificialintelligence

Nowadays, practically everything around us that comes from the realm of technology appears to have some aspect of artificial intelligence (AI). Artificial intelligence, in computer terminology, is the programming and development of computers and systems capable of utilising and processing information in a way analogous to human activity. In other terms, it is a technology that allows robots to accomplish jobs that would ordinarily need human-like reasoning. Artificial intelligence offers a wide range of potential applications, including transportation, healthcare, education, agriculture, cybersecurity, and so on. It has the potential to increase worker productivity, stimulate economic growth, and improve the lives of millions of people.


How big data and product analytics are impacting the fintech industry

#artificialintelligence

The fintech industry is growing at an accelerated pace, driven by new technological innovations and evolving needs. In many cases, the modern enhancements across many IT sectors have had secondary effects across industries – and particularly on fintech products and services. For example, artificial intelligence (AI) now drives a large number of applications and major predictive market models/systems. Of particular note are big data analytics and product analytics. Both industries get a lot of news coverage, though normally in relation to social media or marketing.

Through an enormous experimental effort the structures of around 100,000 unique proteins have been determined, but this represents a small fraction of the billions of known protein sequences. Structural coverage is bottlenecked by the months to years of painstaking effort required to determine a single protein structure. Accurate computational approaches are needed to address this gap and to enable large-scale structural bioinformatics. Predicting the three-dimensional structure that a protein will adopt based solely on its amino acid sequence--the structure prediction component of the'protein folding problem'--has been an important open research problem for more than 50 years. Despite recent progress existing methods fall far short of atomic accuracy, especially when no homologous structure is available.

#artificialintelligence

Over the past few years, there has been a growing interest in statistics and machine learning. Today, machine learning can help us make smarter decisions, and big data controls everything in our lives. It influences how we work, shop and do business. Data even help the police determine when and where the next crime is likely to happen. But how is it all happening and how did it all start?


How will AI and Machine Learning affect cyber security?

#artificialintelligence

Like it or not – artificial intelligence is here, and it is going to stay. Researchers predict that by 2020, artificial intelligence technologies will be implemented in the majority of new software products and services, which will inevitably change the way we live, work, and do business. The machine learning technology is only in its infant stage, but it has already proven its efficiency in performing routine tasks in a broad array of industries, from retail, manufacturing, and healthcare to education and cybersecurity. However, while AI can be a huge help in detecting and fighting the latest cyber threats, experts are worried that artificial intelligence techniques could also bring more risks and even fuel cybercrime. "As AI capabilities become more powerful and widespread, we expect the growing use of AI systems to lead to the expansion of existing threats, the introduction of new threats and a change to the typical character of threats," a report warns. Researchers strongly suggest that before completely trusting the benefits of deep machine learning, it's crucial to take into consideration potential misuse of the artificial intelligence technology.
