One of the most senior judges in the country has revealed that artificial intelligence (AI) is being used in the legal sector for “every purpose under the sun” as he weighs up the power of the technology to make decisions in court.
Master of the rolls Sir Geoffrey Vos, the second most senior judge in the UK, said AI was like a “chainsaw” at his address to the Legal Geek Conference, in that it was useful in the right hands, but “super dangerous” in the wrong ones.
