Nevermore Algorithmic Justice: The Future and The End of Law

This article deals with the possible impact of automated decision- making on law. It argues that such could constitute a death of the law. To demonstrate this point, the article describes the underlying technological process of machine learning. It describes its negative impact on possible future reinterpretation and development of law that reflects societal development. As such, the tools of automation represent an ideal tool for the conservation of the existing status quo. Further, this article deals with the idea that for law to be just it needs to be not only personalized but always made anew in each judgement. This is also made impossible due to the described nature of the automation which makes the law not only forever cemented in its ways, denying any contestation, but rids it of any justice, which is the legitimizing element of the laws’ violence.
