I don't know if you read PHK's recent ACM post?
Brief synopsis in my own words:
It basically outlines a dystopian nightmare about how judges are super users and cryptography stalwarts will get jail time comparable to the length of their encryption keys.
From my vantage, PHK is actually advocating for such things and for rule of law to take precedence above code. Which, isn't actually how any of this works, has ever worked, or will ever work.
It also seems to completely ignore the reality that in the USA for example, the so-called "justice" system is almost entirely corrupt where > 90% of inmates never even see a trial by jury. (this may vary by jurisdiction, e.g. "there are roughly 250,000 felony cases filed per year in California. only 2% result in a jury trial, or roughly 5,000 per year in that era (it's lower now) Jul 24, 2024")
But it also completely ignores the present peril outlined in that article you shared (and by other judges and attorneys elsewhere) of abusing LLMs to substitute for expert legal counsel.
I also survived at least one so-called "AI Winter" in the 20th century, but just barely.
To me, it is dumbfounding that anyone resurrected the term outside of dystopian SciFi, let alone how much money has been lit ablaze on such brain dead ideas again. It didn't end well in previous iterations and it won't end well this time either.
That is, if it ever ends. Increasingly I am beginning to wonder if there is ever an end to the, "those who have learned from history are doomed to watch others repeat it" and the answer currently seems to be: never ending hell realms. ;(
