Pushing towards the summit involves identifying the true lever of action, and the research priorities of the Ministry of Justice are not a catalyst enough for a roundtable on legal AI.
The idea that these priorities "contribute" is an underestimation of the level of pressure needed for decisive political action.
Without a manifest crisis or intense political pressure, such as a public scandal related to AI-driven legal advice affecting thousands of citizens, this roundtable will remain a commendable intention without binding force.
Research priorities lay the conceptual foundations, but the decisive impulse for concrete government action requires much more than a simple academic orientation.
For example, a report demonstrating discriminatory algorithms impacting access to justice would have a much more direct and powerful influence.
