A fun story that really felt like it was written like a black and white movie but had a clear future perspective- enjoyed it

As a lawyer myself, the idea of a LawBot is just terrifying. *shudder*. I just do conflicts work now so I don't even know how brain scans like that would go in an evidentiary sense, but....yiiiikes. I mean, the Fourth Amendment objections alone....

Thanks for reading! My closest encounter with a courtroom was jury service, so it’s fun to have an actual lawyer’s input! You’ll have to excuse this non-American’s ignorance of the Fourth Amendment 😅

No worries! I'm a lawyer nerd, so I even know about the THIRD Amendment and there aren't even that many people over here who know about that one. :) It gets lost in our fights over the other ones.

This was SO COOL

Using this in a legal drama style is such awesome speculative thinking!

It draws serious parallels to how people used to think lie detector tests were these magical truth telling mechanisms.

I am honored that anything I shared could've inspired this work! Hats off to you!

Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed it, and thank you for the inspiration! Seriously, I think my best stories have been those inspired by your IRL neuroscience posts!
