Would twelve frontier models make a better jury? Paper says justice is about human process, not accuracy
davidmanheim · x · 2026-10-18
Stefan Schubert asks: which jury would be more accurate — a typical US jury or one made of twelve frontier models? David Manheim responds citing his paper: a key part of the judicial system isn't accuracy or speed but the process involving humans; optimizing purely for accuracy would be a very different goal than what the system was built to ensure. A draft of the paper is available on SSRN.
