Listen

Description

All right. So, welcome to uh another deep dive.

Yes, welcome.

And today we're going to be talking about uh something that um that you sent in that you'd been chatting with an AI about.

You had a great conversation.

And it's um

it's AI.

It's a really really interesting idea. And so we're going to be taking a look at that conversation and kind of, you know, looking at

it's kind of like

diving into your thought process.

Exactly. With the AI.

So, uh without further ado, let's jump right in.

Yeah. I was really struck by um how quickly you you got to the core of this idea.

You know, you started off by asking that this AI can law be represented using nodes,

right?

And then you really dove straight into like how that would actually work and like what the implications were.

Yeah. I was really curious about the practical applications of it.

Yeah. And and the AI actually used a really um a really simple analogy to explain it.

They said that um you know you can think of nodes as legal concepts like contract, minor, property.

Yeah.

And then the edges that connect them kind of illustrate the relationships between those concepts.

Okay.

So like for example, a minor cannot enter into a binding contract without guardian approval.

I see. Good sense.

Yeah. So you can kind of map out all these different legal concepts and how they relate to each other, right,

in this kind of network.

And and you had brought up I think in the chat with the AI that Japan's digital agency was already working on something along these lines, right?

Yeah. You brought up this real world example which is really cool. Like this isn't just some abstract idea. It's something that people are actually working on,

right?

Um and then you had another great point where you were talking about

how you know maybe legal terms themselves should be defined as nodes within this network.

Yeah. Because that would then standardize the the vocabulary so there's no ambiguity.

Yeah. It's like having a universal legal language that everyone understands.

Right. Exactly.

And the AI pointed out a bunch of advantages to doing things that way.

Mhm. First of all, clear definitions

minimize misinterpretations, which is a huge source of legal disputes,

of course.

Then second, it makes it much easier to understand

complex laws, right?

Yeah.

Like imagine being able to see how all these different legal concepts connect and interact.

Yeah.

It would be like having an interactive map of the legal system.

Exactly. Exactly.

Uh and then the AI also said that, you know, it it would be really easy to add new laws or precedents Yeah.

as they come up.

Mhm. And then finally

get updated.

Yeah. And then finally uh you know AI itself could use this kind of structured information

to apply laws to specific cases like a

like a legal GPS or something.

Legal GPS. That's

so you you had a great point where you were like

okay but could this make trials faster?

Right.

You immediately went to the like

I mean

practical applications.

Yeah. And the AI outlined some pretty compelling possibilities.

Mhm.

You know, for example, legal research would be way faster,

right?

Because you could just like search for any relevant case law or precedents

instantly. Yeah.

Instantly.

Instead of having to pour over, you know,

Exactly. Right. And then, uh, you know, AI was talking about how you could compare cases really quickly.

Uhhuh.

And find precedents and potential loopholes.

And you could even automatically check evidence.

Oh, wow. For relevance and inconsistencies.

That would be huge.

And the whole trial process would become much more transparent because everything would be clearly documented and accessible.

Mhm. That makes sense.

But the AI did say that human judgment would still be really important, especially for the emotional and moral aspects of the case.

Of course. Of course.

But this would be like a powerful tool to make those decisions,

right? A framework.
