Description

At a time when AI is already being integrated into the criminal justice systems of the US and other countries, and legal professionals are considering the accuracy and impact of using AI in their preparatory work, this succinct volume provides much-needed insights.

Written by an author team who combine experience of AI policy and regulation with the legal practitioner's perspective, this unique book brings those working in criminal and cyber law up to date with how AI has already been, and will continue to be, integrated into different phases of the criminal justice process and will therefore likely impact on their practice.

It covers the core questions and issues facing legal practitioners from an overview of core AI concepts and data protections that we need to be aware of, to use of AI in preparing Skeleton Arguments and Writing Submissions. It also explores the use of AI by criminals in England and Wales and abroad, given practitioners need to be aware of how new technology is increasingly facilitating criminal activity particularly fraud, money laundering, and theft of private information.

This title is also available within Bloomsbury Professionals Cyber Law online service.
