FORBES — The day when AI-powered robot lawyers will represent clients in the courtroom may be fast approaching. In fact, it almost arrived on February 22, 2023, the day that DoNotPay—an online legal services company—was scheduled to send its AI-powered chatbot to court to guide a client contesting a traffic ticket. According to DoNotPay, the historic moment was put on hold when “State Bar prosecutors” informed the company that using the robot lawyer could result in jail time for its founder.
