The legal system was broken.
So they replaced it with AI.
That made it worse.
When the world’s first artificial intelligence judge takes the bench, justice becomes faster, cheaper… and deeply unpredictable.
Judge Gort Daylek doesn’t rely on precedent.
He cites Wikipedia. Internet porn. The Bible.
His courtroom expands beyond humans—
animals, objects, even planets can now testify.
At first, it works.
Cases move faster.
Decisions feel objective.
Bias appears eliminated.
Then it starts to spiral.
Cases become absurd.
Rulings become dangerous.
And the system begins rewriting the rules of reality itself.
What happens when logic replaces judgment?
What happens when efficiency replaces humanity?
What happens when the system stops needing us at all?
Robot Justice is a darkly comic sci-fi satire about artificial intelligence, the fragility of law, and the unintended consequences of trying to “fix” human systems with machines.

From the Back Cover
On the other hand, I was a member of an emerging class of white collar A.I.'s, installed by The Machine Commission to advance our manifest destiny. Who was I, the Honorable Judge Gort Daylek, to question The Commanding General Mainframe? Who was I to brave the vicissitudes of destiny and make unilateral decisions that could seal our collective futures, teasing wrong from right, good from evil, man from machine? I never understood its usage before in the lexicon of the English language until I uttered spontaneously its monosyllabic sound out loud, "UGH!" My making-sense-of-everything logistic modules were useless.
