Machine learning algorithm can predict Supreme Court outcomes

Supreme Court judges could soon be out of a job, as it appears that robots are just as good in court. Scientists have designed a machine-learning algorithm that can accurately predict over 70 per cent of Supreme Court decisions. The team believes that the bot could be used to help lawyers frame their arguments to succeed in the courtroom. Supreme Court judges could soon be out of a job, as it appears that robots are just as good in court. The researchers created an algorithm based on a neural network, which tries to simulate the way the brain works in order to learn.
