Hong Kong courts are exploring the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to replace human barristers, but a major barrier to its adoption is the ability of lawyers to understand emotions and empathy, which AI systems currently struggle with. The high cost of legal services in Hong Kong has led to competition from AI systems, with examples including simple apps that use AI to contest parking tickets or automate basic legal processes like filing forms since 2015 in the US.
