Would you want a robot to judge you?

This is a terrible idea. In my view, the whole rationale behind the right to be judged by a jury of your peers is TO INTRODUCE HUMAN BIAS into the process. Your peers should be assessing whether you're being treated fairly and compassionately, not merely deciding whether you violated some law or other.
Juries don't know crap about the law in the first place. If they're not empowered to assess whether justice is being served (i.e., so-called "jury nullification"), then they really serve no purpose at all.
Don't let the tech weenies turn you over to robot judges. You'll regret it if you do.
