We argue that automating the role of the judge raises difficult ethical challenges, in particular for common law legal systems.
Our argument follows from the social role of the judge in actively shaping the law, rather than merely applying it.
Even in the case the models could achieve human-level capabilities, there would still be remaining ethical concerns inherent in the automation of the legal process.
