Artificial IntelligenceIn the last month I have received four letters containing references and quotes from court decisions and statutes that were strongly opposed to positions I was taking that I was certain were correct. I work under the assumption that there is no certainty in anything we do or positions we take because at any moment a Judge somewhere could take a position that is contrary to what we think is the law. Moreover, one of the wonders of Common Law is its flexibility. I am well aware of the ability of Judges to reject a time honored statutory interpretation or legislatures who demand transparency from private institutions or, to paraphrase Nancy Pelosi, pass it and we will see what it provides. But this is not about human Judges reversing or distinguishing older decisions or legislatures changing statutory law, but a nonhuman source intervening to "make law."
