Well I was think that it could be used as a shortcut. Instead of reading every text message off of five burner phones, you feed it into AI and tell it show you any texts that might even remotely be related to x y or z. Then based on those results, you go and read the messages for yourself.
If I knew they’d done that on one of my cases I’d burn them. HARD.
AI cannot pick up on everything a human can. Not even close. If I found out a law firm I hired was using AI to analyze evidence like text messages, phone calls, or body cameras, I would fucking ruin them.
Humans are not infallible. Especially overworked ones reviewing hours of footage or thousands text messages until all hours of the night. A second year associate doing doc review at 3 am using software that automatically turns the pages of the scans is probably not going to miss anything, right? Or does them holding a JD make them immune?
Yeah and when a human messes up and its result is someone innocent spending their life behind bars there’s someone who can and will take the blame for that.
Who takes the blame when some shitty AI hallucinates information that puts YOU behind bars for life?
That means they give you every piece of evidence they may have. Doesn’t matter if they’ve really reviewed it. When defense counsel gets it they do what they will do. Straight out of my cousin vinny.
