Artificial Lawyer wrote about the new French law that seeks to prevent people analysing and sharing statistical data on named French judges’ decisions. The story went global and created a huge reaction.
But, now here is a Guest Post from someone in France who writes that he was right at the centre of the events that led up to the law passing this year. It gives some fascinating extra detail and some more context to what happened.
The author, Michaël Benesty, is a machine learning (ML) expert and qualified lawyer in France. He currently works at Lefebvre Sarrut at Neuilly-sur-Seine, Paris. This is his personal story and his views on what happened are from his own perspective and in his own words.
