Professor Andrew Murray on the rise of 'robot lawyers'

Andrew Murray-2015

Professor Andrew Murray was quoted in a recent Guardian article on 'robot lawyers'.

The article considers how developments in the fields of virtual reality, robotics and artificial intelligence will create a changing legal landscape, from the legal implications of self-driving cars, to new legal career opportunities in tech companies.

This changes the role of the lawyer. An algorithmically-regulated self-driving car would theoretically be unable to speed or to breach dangerous driving laws. This means we will reduce towards zero criminal prosecutions for driving.
