This reminds me of that one judge that let prosecution use an AI approximation of a dead man against someone that killed the dead man to speak in the dead man’s voice and I just wanted to throw the justice system INTO THE OCEAN cause wtf.
Judge Todd Lang of Maricopa County Superior Court ultimately sentenced Pelkey’s killer Gabriel Paul Horcasitas to 10.5 years for manslaughter — although the state had asked for only 9.5 years — and 12.5 years in total, including an endangerment charge.
“I love that AI. Thank you for that,” Lang said, a recording of the hearing shows.
WTF.
Yeah, ain’t it great that judges can be easily swayed by some bullshit? Good country, ethics really well here.
How is that even admissible in court? It’s worse than hearsay, it’s madeupsay.
If your honour pleases, we have used AI to turn this child’s crayon drawing into the defendant pleading guilty! I’ll allow it.
For fucks sake.

What? Come on! It made the judge “feel” something! Not like someone’s died or something! /s
