Judge Armstrong began by acknowledging AI’s widespread presence, noting its ability to streamline tasks and reduce costs for creatives and businesses. However, she emphasized the ethical concerns surrounding AI, particularly its use of data without consent or compensation. “AI is popular and everywhere,” she stated, “but it’s taking content without payment or consent, which can lead to trust issues.”

One of the most pressing issues Judge Armstrong highlighted was AI’s bias, especially in law enforcement. She explained how AI struggles to accurately recognize individuals with darker skin tones, putting lives and liberties at risk in courtrooms. “We absolutely need equal protections in AI,” she urged, advocating for diverse data inputs and minimizing errors and biases.
The conversation also touched on the economic impact of AI. Judge Armstrong pointed out how AI-generated search summaries at the top of search results can divert traffic from businesses, leading to revenue loss while companies still pay platforms like Google.
Legal challenges surrounding AI were another focal point. Judge Armstrong mentioned lawsuits against tech giants like Apple and Google for issues ranging from false information to wiretapping. She also expressed concern over a proposed federal bill that could restrict states from enforcing their own AI-related laws for a decade.
Judge Armstrong’s advice to listeners was clear: “Always fact-check, frequently check your site for errors, and contact Google if needed.” Judge Armstrong’s insights serve as a wake-up call for the need for ethical AI practices and stronger legal protections.
