Missing the point of the analogy, but I can work with that.

Yes, they do, but even then they still have a human pilot at the controls in case the auto-pilot goes awry or a situation it's unprepared to deal with comes up (which still happens from time to time), and there's an entire regulatory apparatus that oversees the implementation of auto-pilot and that has procedures to sort out what to do if it does go wrong.

Are airplanes not usually on auto-pilot for most of the time other than landing and taking off ?

They asked it “when did you stop beating your wife?”

What I really want to see is AI taking elected official's jobs. I would actually prefer voting for a machine that can be manipulated by a single corporation or group instead of whoever pays the person the most money that election cycle. Sure, it'll be largely the same thing anyway but at least we won't have to pay for their retirement, security, travel expenses, housing, and medical crap anymore.

In short, vote for my upcoming Republican AI. It'll be the easiest politician to simulate.

Nah, they're going after it because it's some jackass using the court system as a marketing stunt for technology that is currently nowhere near at the level it would need to be to make effective arguments, and there's no ethical or legal framework for how to actually implement the tech.

Or to put it another way: that AI is not legally an attorney. Client-attorney privilege wouldn't apply for any information you put in to support your side of the case. If it fucks up your case (and it will fuck up a good number of cases, because AI is good at regurgitating data but it doesn't actually understand it, and the law requires a good understanding of nuance), you can't appeal on the basis of insufficient counsel. There's no standard of ethics for AI lawyers.

And that's just a few of the more obvious issues.

I'll put it this way. Imagine you're a pilot, then some asshat with no piloting experience comes along and tries to stage a marketing stunt by having his under-tested, unregulated, fully automated plane that still has some pretty concerning design elements take off from and land at a busy regional airport. You'd be pretty fuckin alarmed too, even if it does somehow work, because nobody's actually ready for that technology to be in use and there's no oversight to make sure it keeps working.

I hope he dressed a teenager up as himself to complete the illusion.

Lawyer is the prime job to be done by robots in the future. That's going to be an interesting power struggle as lawyers and large rich corporations fight against automation while the average person sits idly by as they're blasted by propaganda about how bad robot lawyer automation is.

Wait, did I say power struggle? I meant massacre.

But can they serve up a heaping spoon of Maine justice?

These PEDs are getting out of hand!

Sure, if you have absolutely no idea how AI works that is

They fixed the glitch at the factory.

It’d be a good head start for citing other cases, assuming AI doesn’t already do that.

Huh. I didn't think that thing would work, but apparently the actual lawyers did, or they wouldn't have bothered going after it.

The actor in a netflix high school movie:

That's just what the government wants you to think, man.

They’ll never know

Someone somewhere was like "And you'll pay me how much? Sure, I don't care what it's for man, I'll get you the pigeons, and they'll be the right color"

The grandparents better not complain when they get stuck in a shitty assisted living home

This just in, company PR team drums up news articles with non-existent tech.

DontPay comes up in my google searches a lot. I don't find the advice particularly useful so assuming they already use AI to help research and write articles, having the realtime version cant be better.

But these lawyers won't make a peep when robots replace other jobs...
