Senior UK Judge Geoffrey Vos Says AI Could Adjudicate a Large Number of Civil Cases, Pushing Judicial AI Discussions Before His Retirement
on October 28, according to WIRED, Geoffrey Vos, the Master of the Rolls—the highest position in England's civil justice system—will retire in a few days. He believes that artificial intelligence can adjudicate a significant number of civil cases, with the key issue being where to draw the boundary for its use. As one of his final initiatives before stepping down, he hopes to use this opportunity to prompt cross-sector discussions on whether judges should employ AI and how it should be used.
