World’s first robot lawyer sued

This artificial intelligence, created by a startup called DoNotPay, could not be used due to the warnings of the court as it was preparing to appear in its first court on 22 February.

Today, DoNotPay’s artificial intelligence is in court. According to the allegations created last week and submitted to the court, this artificial intelligence is both against the rules of law and publicly deceiving users.

DoNotPay CEO could go to jail for fraud charges. Comment on Twitter he say: ” Bad news! Jay Edelson, America’s richest class action lawyer, is suing my startup @DoNotPay in California. Mr. Edelson, who has made billions suing companies, is attacking us for ‘unathorised practice of law’ and seeking a court order ending any A.I product.”

The documents submitted to the court also include comments made by several citizens who wanted to have their parking tickets removed using DoNotPay’s advisory system, complaining about paying more than double the amount they should have paid to the court because of the advice of artificial intelligence.

Commenting that DoNotPay received more than 90% bad reviews on the internet and social media as “a failed attempt and a large-scale fraud”, the lawyers judged the CEO of the company with the crimes of “fraud by persuasion” and “informatics fraud”, both imprisoning him and imprisoning him. It also wants to prevent such “fake advocacy” attempts.

In addition, the documents submitted to the court allege that there would be no problem if the artificial intelligence were described as a “legal adviser” instead of a lawyer, but that the company deliberately lied to market this software in a manipulative way.
