The idea that the Ministry of Justice's research priorities 'contribute' to a roundtable is not a victory for promoters. It's a competition, not a seminar, and mere thematic convergence is not enough to carry the forum. For a roundtable on AI to materialize, it requires a mandate or a binding authority, not just alignment. If the Ministry of Justice reorients its strategic objectives, as happened with the virtual courts reform program that lost momentum, this 'contribution' will have had no impact.
