Criminal Defense AI Is Available. It Is Available to Defendants Who Can Pay for It.

A criminal defense ai system is now available for purchase. Defendants with sufficient capital can access it. Defendants without capital cannot. This replicates the existing legal system's relationship to technology.

Every technology that improves legal outcomes has followed this distribution curve. Faster legal research tools went to firms that could pay. Predictive sentencing software was purchased by jurisdictions with budgets. The pattern is not surprising. What is surprising is the speed. Six months from release to stratification instead of six years.

The system will improve. Access will narrow. The gap between defendants who can afford ai counsel and those who cannot will become measurable, then accepted, then invisible. This is already happening.
