Bulgaria recently is shaken with corruption scandals in the judicial system. It made me think where the fault is. Trying to look through different angles, I always seem to end up finding the error in the human act of knowingly breaking the rules.
So why don't we remove the human error factor and simply automate justice as a set of rules, defined by the law makers, executed by developers, with unit tests accompying every law? Lawyers and prosecutors can each present a logical argument on why they think their side should win, (a jury will decide), and an AI will give out the sentence. Should the issue hit an exception, a judge can intercept the case manually.
Am I missing anything? Because this, excluding the politics (unavoidable human factor), sounds too easy.
