There was a lot of dancing around how AI should be regulated today. I have not been swayed from my initial position that AI should be regulated the way every other technology that came before has been regulated.
"Rich people get lawyers and poor people get robots" - Well, first rich people's lawyers are often robotic, if not actual robots, and second it's a false duality - people aren't paying for AI drop-ins for lawyers. @SateeshNori
Getting heat in your apartment is perceived as a life problem, not a legal problem. @SateeshNori
In NYC, people spend more than $1B annually, and only about 1/10 to 1/100 of viable cases are represented. @SateeshNori
Microsoft has adopted responsbile AI standards and accountability to address sensitive use cases, and legal services are definitely a sensitive use case - Beth Henderson See microsoft.com/en-us/ai/respo…
American Arbitration Association has really adopted AI to make tools for those appearing before them, particularly to help unrepresented parties represent themselves well. - @MarkovichMaya
Simple speech to text or simple handwriting recognition would dramatically improve access to justice in the global south - @orgho12 #AIforgood
People complain that it takes too long to resolve cases in the US today. According to @orgho12 it takes an AVERAGE of 14 years to resolve any case in India.
My personal favorite on @margarethagan 's list is the trend spotter. Just knowing where the pain points are will go a long way to providing the greatest good to the greatest number of people.
There are many tasks that may be offloaded to AI, from intake interviewing to settlement reviewing which could increase acceess to justice: not replacing any person's job, but providing more representation for low income recipients. - @margarethagan
AI for acceess to justice panel as last #AIForGood panel of the day featuring @orgho12 @margarethagan @MarkovichMaya @SateeshNori Beth Henderson, and Lisa Dewey.

Starting off #AIForGood panel with a spicy provocation — @zevdatascience: “when the robots take the jobs will the male robots get paid more than female robots?” ‼️
The C-Span model in the early cable days is a great way to look at how to get good governance: cable companies contributed a share of revenue to fund government coverage. @marcidale
UN Law of the Sea - the US never signed on to the treaty, but it is still out there and relied upon... (audience contribution)
Governing capacity is something that definitely needs expansion worldwide. Governments are not able to keep up with technology. - @marcidale
A third party auditing infrastructure is the lynchpin to any AI regulation worldwide. - @nathanielpersi5
The ability to fit new governance with existing regulatory tools is a challenge to adoption as well. @HengWANG_law
To establish international standards AI regulators have to recognize network effects over quality and ease of implementation. - @HengWANG_law
AI standards are going to be set by traditional bodies that set standards in whichever field applies. Energy, sustainability, infrastructure, etc. it all comes under existing bodies - @nathanielpersi5

When the federal government starts talking about people "hiding behind the First Amendment," look out.
The Department of Homeland Security announced today it is formalizing the censorship practices it has engaged in for the past three months. By surveilling visa and green card holders and targeting them based on nothing more than their protected expression, the administration trades America’s commitment to free and open discourse for fear and silence. Unfortunately, that chill appears to be the administration’s aim.
FIRE is seeking a copy of the memo and will have more soon.
