Mireille Hildebrandt, Human Judgment, Prediction, and Machine Learning in Law
New machine learning technology boast claims that their results that are identical to that of a human lawyer.

This leads to exclusions that are unrealistic, and raises concerns about replacing human judgement in law with these technologies.
