According to Business Insider, the artificial intelligence was oriented to “solve very basic questions” such as claims derived from purchases or traffic fines.

However, after the announcement, several American Bar Association prosecutors threatened Browder with 6 months in prison, “even being able to refer the case to the district attorney’s office.”

Buenos dias! Bad news: after receiving threats from State Bar prosecutors, it seems likely they will put me in jail for 6 months if I follow through with bringing a robot lawyer into a physical courtroom. DoNotPay is postponing our court case and sticking to consumer rights:

Because of this, the CEO ruled out carrying out the project, as he wishes to ensure the rights of consumers “from outside prison”.

Despite the fact that the legal authorities of various districts of the United States do not see it favorably, Browder has indicated that “will continue to ensure legal representation accessible to all consumers.”
