While companies are finding all kinds of efficiencies and competitive advantages for themselves with AI, there's also a huge opportunity for individual consumers.

Today's episode offers a different perspective on the DoNotPay controversy – and ended up having an unexpected twist.   Earlier this year, DoNotPay, which described itself as the world's first robot lawyer, and its founder Joshua Browder became the subject of harsh criticism after paralegal Kathryn Tewson tested several of DoNotPay's self-help legal apps and concluded they were little more than smoke and mirrors – in some cases getting the law wrong, in others failing even to deliver the promised output.  In the wake of Tewson's allegations, this podcast recorded an exclusive interview with Browder, in which he called the criticism “a bit of a nothingburger.” I followed that Interview with one with Tewson, in which she described in detail how she tested the DoNotPay products and responded to Browder's dismissal of her critique.  Following those events, our guests today, Maya Markovich, executive director and cofounder of the Justice Technology Association and executive in residence for Justice Tech at Village Capital, and Tom Gordon, executive director of Responsive Law, an organization that represents the consumers' voice in the legal system, co-authored an op-ed in which they argued that reforms in the regulation of the practice of law, such as those implemented in Utah, could have prevented the DoNotPay debacle, since DoNotPay would have had to have been licensed and regulated. They submitted their op-ed to the American Bar Association's Center for Innovation, which agreed to publish it in the Center's biannual innovation trends report, slated to be released Aug. 1. In anticipation of that publication, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi recorded the interview you're about to hear with Markovich and Gordon, in which they discussed their op-ed and their views more broadly on regulatory reform. The interview was scheduled to post Aug. 1, in conjunction with the op-ed's publication that day.  But then the plan hit an unexpected twist. Instead of publishing the op-ed that day, the Center notified the authors that it had canceled the publication because of what it described as “political challenges” within the ABA, but that it had neglected to inform them of that.  Because this interview was recorded before the ABA canceled the op-ed, you will hear references to the ABA's publication of the op-ed. But since that never happened, Markovich and Gordon allowed us to publish the op-ed on LawNext. Ambrogi has also written a blog post detailing the whole sordid story.  Show links:   Opinion: DoNotPay Controversy Illuminates Urgent Need for Regulatory Reform.

Kathryn Tewson was a little-known paralegal when, on Jan. 24, she was suddenly thrust into the spotlight. That day, she published a scathing series of tweets recounting her investigation of DoNotPay, the company that describes itself as “the world's first robot lawyer.” She concluded that the company's supposed AI-driven products were little more than smoke and mirrors and that its representations about its products constituted consumer fraud.  Her findings stirred intense interest both on social media and in the traditional media. Soon after she published her findings, DoNotPay's founder Joshua Browder announced he was taking down the products she tested. Now, Tewson has filed a legal action against DoNotPay and Browder in New York state that is the first step in a potential consumer class action.  Last week on this podcast, Browder was our guest to respond to Tewson's allegations and other criticisms of him and his company that have come out over the past month. In the interview, he dismissed much of the controversy as “a bit of a nothingburger.” Today, Tewson joins LawNext host Bob Ambrogi to share her story of how she came to investigate DoNotPay, what she uncovered, and why she has now taken the first steps towards a potential class action. She also responds directly to some of what Browder said in last week's show.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Ep 193: ‘A Bit Of A Nothingburger': Joshua Browder Speaks To The DoNotPay Controversy

On this episode of LawNext: Joshua Browder, founder of DoNotPay. Browder achieved international recognition when, at just 17 years old in 2015, he founded DoNotPay, touted as the world's first robot lawyer, to help people appeal parking tickets. The company claims the app has saved motorists in the U.S. and UK many millions of dollars. DoNotPay went on to release a series of apps designed to help consumers – and, more recently, small businesses – solve common legal problems, all without the need for a lawyer, and, along the way, it has raised some $28 million in venture funding. In recent weeks, however, Browder has been the subject of harsh criticism, both on social media and in the news media. The criticism came on two principal fronts. One was what many viewed as a pair of ill-conceived publicity stunts – first when Browder offered to pay a lawyer $1 million to argue a case in the Supreme Court guided via AirPods by DoNotPay's artificial intelligence, and the other when Browder said he would send a pro se litigant into traffic court guided by DoNotPay's AI whispering in his ear. He canceled that plan after claiming that state bar officials threatened him with prosecution.  Then came a scathing series of tweets by Kathryn Tewson, a paralegal in Washington state who tried out several of DoNotPay's self-help legal tools, only to conclude that they were effectively smoke and mirrors, in some cases getting the law wrong, in others failing even to deliver the promised product. Following all that, Browder announced that he was taking down the legal tools from DoNotPay and would henceforth focus only on consumer rights.  What does Browder say about all this? In this exclusive LawNext interview, he describes it all as “a bit of a nothingburger.”    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Browder había encontrado una corte que técnicamente permite el uso de audífonos. Eso permitiría que el sistema automatizado escuchara la voz del juez y pudiera crear respuestas que el acusado podría repetir en la corte. Browder dijo a NPR que varios colegios de abogados estatales dijeron que presentarían cargos penales por ejercer la abogacía sin licencia si seguía con su plan, por lo cual abortó la misión.Para esta y más noticias, escucha todos los días el podcast de Noticias de Tecnología ExpressDisponible en Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2BHTUlynDLqEE2UhdIYfMaen Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/noticias-de-tecnolog%C3%ADa-express/id1553334024

In the show today, we will talk about two chatbots that can help you challenge your parking ticket and organise your work life. Also, are you looking for a secondary phone to take with you on that hike? We will talk about an option that is light, thin and small as a credit card.   Show Notes:   DONOTPAY   Chatbots are increasingly providing services today that humans did only a few short years ago.   DoNotPay is a chatbot which was developed by Joshua Browder and he calls it "the world's first robot lawyer".  When Joshua was about 18 years old he began driving and started to receive a large number of parking tickets. He decided to create a service – a computer program that can help him challenge these tickets.   It worked so great that a year later it successfully appealed over 250,000 tickets. He then expanded this service to cover emergency housing and now it helps asylum seekers.   Refugees can complete immigration applications in the US, Canada and the UK by using this service. This service uses Facebook Messenger to gather information about a case before providing advice and legal documents.   "It works by asking a series of questions to determine if a refugee is eligible for asylum protection under international law," he tells BBC Trending, "for example: 'are you afraid of being subjected to torture in your home country?'   "Once it knows a user can claim asylum, it takes down hundreds of details and automatically fills in a completed immigration application.”   The bot suggests ways the asylum seeker can answer questions to increase their chances of having applications accepted as well. It also provides locations to send their applications in along with other documentation and resources.   Currently, the lawyer bot is available via the Facebook Messenger app for Android and Apple users. Browder is looking to bring this service in other languages and apps including WhatsApp.   Astro   Astro is a native email app on iOS and Mac that separates your email into two groups - Priority and Other - and allows you to snooze emails until later. In addition to this the company is working on adding a chatbot to this service.   This service will help to create filters and mark VIP contacts. Also, it will monitor your usage and then offer to automatically do it for you like if you normally snooze emails from the family until the evening then Astro will offer to do it for you instead.   You can tell it to clear out old emails, or remind you to email your boss in the morning.   It will observe the emails you delete and ask if you just want to unsubscribe.   So what Astro is looking to do is to become an assistant that can eventually handle most of your daily tasks by working through different systems.   The Light Phone   The Light Phone is made to simplify your life and make it distraction free.   I know some people carry a second phone around, if you are considering such a move, the Light Phone is a good option to look at.   The size of the Light Phone is the exact size of a credit card with a thickness of about stacking about 5 credit cards together which is still thinner than the iPhone 7 plus.   Specifications   Color – Matte White Weight – 38.5 grams (iPhone weights about 100 grams more) Display – OLED Battery – 3 Days Standby SIM – Nano SIM Connector – Micro USB Language – English Connection – GSM 850/900 1800/1900 MHz OS – Android   In the U.S. you can set up this phone as a call forwarding from your primary smartphone, which will forward all incoming calls to The Light Phone. This comes with a $5 service fee. For international users, this phone can be used as a standalone with no service fee.   The Light phone is on pre-order for $150 US and you can place your order at theLightPhone.com.
