Legal AI can be deployed to identify and correct existing bias in law

Evidence

Algorithms that can help the human actors in the legal system mitigate racial bias can also exacerbate bias unless they are implemented with caution and care. Computational decision-making tools need a careful framework for their development and implementation. In this chapter, we have outlined five essential tasks that, if accomplished, will maximize the good and minimize the risk. In adhering to our framework and accomplishing these tasks, legal decision makers might be able to achieve something that has not been heretofore achieved: more equal justice for all. β€” Joseph Avery, Jim Sidanius, Joel Cooper, Gregory Davis, Amanda N., Bias in the Law, 1223
