Professor Richard Susskind, a global thought leader on technology in the law, gave the 2023 Lionel Cohen Lecture at The Hebrew University on the unique relationship between the British and Israeli judiciaries and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the law. He stressed the need for legal professionals to adopt a different mindset towards the use of technology and distinguish between automation and innovation. Susskind predicts a few law tech startups will emerge and fundamentally change the legal landscape by 2030, and while AI will play a fundamental role in the transformation of law and legal institutions, it won't move at that pace due to cultural, regulatory, and commercial reasons. He warns that machines will be more capable than humans in almost all respects and will redefine what it means to be human and work.
In a lecture at The Hebrew University, Professor Richard Susskind discusses the potential of technology to become embedded within humans, leading to transhumanism, and the challenges this poses in terms of power and ethical boundaries. He believes that AI will transform the legal profession beyond task substitution, leading to new ways of solving problems through technology and the potential for incorporating a wider range of discourse into judicial decision-making. Susskind emphasizes the importance of regulating AI development, ethical and philosophical discussions, and deeper considerations of what is worth preserving in the legal system, rather than surface features. Additionally, he raises concerns about unregulated AI being concentrated in companies and the potential for machines to convict people before committing a crime, emphasizing the need for more dialog and critical decision-making.
