The Danger of Reverse-Engineering of Automated Judicial Decision-Making Systems

18 Dec 2020  ·  Masha Medvedeva, Martijn Wieling, Michel Vols ·

In this paper we discuss the implications of using machine learning for judicial decision-making in situations where human rights may be infringed. We argue that the use of such tools in these situations should be limited due to inherent status quo bias and dangers of reverse-engineering. We discuss that these issues already exist in the judicial systems without using machine learning tools, but how introducing them might exacerbate them.
