LEVERAGING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN EDISCOVERY: ENHANCING EFFICIENCY, ACCURACY, AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS
Developments in digital technologies over the past few decades have profoundly affected every area of law, from the practice of individual lawyers to court procedures. Today, systems can draft documents, conduct legal research, disclose documents in litigation, conduct due diligence, provide legal guidance, and even resolve litigation online. The traditionally conservative legal profession is now compelled to embrace these changes to stay relevant in the changing world. Discovery is a crucial part of court procedure in common law jurisdictions. It allows each party to obtain the information needed to prepare for trial, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of their case, and develop strategies for success. As more information is stored electronically, the need for an electronic form of this litigation phase emerged. Since 2006, electronic discovery (eDiscovery) has been officially recognized. Electronic discovery, or eDiscovery, refers to the process of identifying, collecting, and producing electronically stored information (ESI) in response to a request for production in a lawsuit or investigation. ESI encompasses a wide range of digital data, including emails, online documents, spreadsheets, databases, digital images, presentations, audio and video files, social media posts, and websites. The primary purpose of eDiscovery is to support litigation, but the processes of identifying, preserving, collecting, and analyzing ESI are applicable to any organization facing legal or regulatory compliance requirements. Companies in EMEA and APAC regions, even without formal eDiscovery rules, use the technology in anticipation of litigation or regulatory action, to redact sensitive information, conduct internal investigations, perform fact-finding audits, and manage company data. In this article we are going to analyze the eDiscovery process in general, including its phases, advantages, and disadvantages. It will also examine the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on eDiscovery. Given that both AI and eDiscovery are highly complex and rapidly evolving fields, the aim of this article is to provide a preliminary overview of AI’s use in eDiscovery and to explore potential future developments.

Artificial Intelligence 2024 - 2034: What to expect in the next ten years
In this public communication, AI policy theorist Demetrius Floudas introduces a novel era classification for the AI epoch and reveals the hidden dangers of AGI, predicting the potential obsolescence of humanity. In retort, he proposes a provocative International Control Treaty. According to this scheme, the age of AI will unfold in three distinct phases, introduced here for the first time. An AGI Control & non-Proliferation Treaty may be humanity’s only safeguard. This piece aims to provide a publicly accessible exposé of the most pertinent current issues in the governance, ethics and social impact of Artificial Intelligence.

Perspective. Can AI resolve the argument?
AI could cause ‘social ruptures’ between people who disagree on its sentience
Significant “social ruptures” between people who think artificial intelligence systems are conscious and those who insist the technology feels nothing are looming, a leading philosopher has said.
The comments, from Jonathan Birch, a professor of philosophy at the London School of Economics, come as governments prepare to gather this week in San Francisco to accelerate the creation of guardrails to tackle the most severe risks of AI.
Last week, a transatlantic group of academics predicted that the dawn of consciousness in AI systems is likely by 2035 and one has now said this could result in “subcultures that view each other as making huge mistakes” about whether computer programmes are owed similar welfare rights as humans or animals.
… “I’m quite worried about major societal splits over this,” Birch said. “We’re going to have subcultures that view each other as making huge mistakes … [there could be] huge social ruptures where one side sees the other as very cruelly exploiting AI while the other side sees the first as deluding itself into thinking there’s sentience there.”

Am I alone in thinking?
… Tom quotes Robert Long, executive director of the research organisation Eleos AI: ‘Evolution was not trying to build conscious creatures, it was trying to make creatures that would survive and reproduce. In the course of navigating the world and thinking about the world, that resulted in consciousness.’ What, he asks, if AI reaches the same destination?
