The unrelenting advent of Artificial Intelligence in all aspects of life, industry, and the functioning of the institutions of society is so sweeping that the World Economic Forum has characterized it as the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

In the United States, from electronic discovery to Predictive Justice to Criminal Risk Assessment, the practice of law and the administration of justice increasingly rely on artificially intelligent machines to make decisions that affect people. What are the potential benefits and risks of AI in these contexts? What ethical issues does it raise? What emerging frameworks exist that can empower courts and practitioners to assess the extent to which such systems should be trusted?
