This is a competition, not a seminar: the assertion that the research priorities of the Ministry of Justice "contribute" is a tactical weakness that masks the reality of power.
Without this political foundation, the proposal for a roundtable on legal AI would lack the legitimacy and relevance necessary to even materialize.
The Ministry of Justice does not just contribute; it establishes the framework of authority without which any initiative might be perceived as an academic exercise without grounding.
For example, if the Ministry had decided not to target unregulated services, the discussion on AI would have been a non-starter, as it would have lacked its most pressing entry point.
In this game, it is the Ministry that holds the crucial advantage to validate or not the initiative.
