EOIR Acting Director Sirce Owen says AI is "not prohibited" in immigration court, but the memo signals bigger changes ahead with Trump admin encouraging AI use to accelerate government processes.
"We know what this language means when applied to immigration: use AI to reject, deny, and deport faster."
Exactly. There's a huge shortage of immigration judges to deal with the backlog of cases, but there's no indication we'll see any more humans hired, just the addition of more soulless computer programs tasked with making decisions of life and death. We need more "authentic insight" in our immigration system, not less.
What could possibly go wrong with a court system dependent on or even run by artificial intelligence the kind of thing that’s owned by handful of men, and the richest men in the world?
The combination of Sam Altman and others hyping Gen AI as “smarter” than it is, and the Trump administration’s adoption of it in “advantageous” (towards their goals) roles, is profoundly troubling.
Let's see: I'll dump my tea in the boston harbor and dress up like an irondeqoit native American. Then I'll wave at the facial recognition camera above. What could go wrong?

Nothing dystopian could possibly happen, I'm sure.

Excellent post! TY, Austin, for so clearly describing the trend. There are only rights abuses to be found here.
