👉 AIが人を裁く時代が来たら、あなたは安心できますか？
AIが裁判官や検事の役割まで担って人を裁く——。
そんな近未来を描いた映画「MERCY マーシー AI裁判」を観てきました。
最初は「さすがに荒唐無稽かな」と思いながら出かけたのですが、これが予想以上に引き込まれました。
舞台は、凶悪犯罪が増え続ける近未来。
「人間の裁判は感情や先入観が入る」という世論を背景に、AIが厳格に判断する裁判制度が導入されます。
ところが、その制度を推進していた警察官が、ある事件をきっかけに今度は被告として裁かれる立場に。
しかも無実を証明できなければ処刑という極限状態です。
この作品の面白さは、戦う相手が人間ではないところ。
AIが算出する「有罪率」という数字を、限られた時間の中で下げていかなければならない——。
この設定がスリリングで、観ている側の心拍数まで上がっていきます。
AIは感情も先入観もなく、膨大なデータから確率で結論に近づく。
だからこそ「人間よりミスが少ない裁判」になる可能性も感じます。
もしあなたの有罪率がAIに数値化されたら——どう感じますか？
If an era comes when AI judges people, would you feel at ease?
I recently watched the near-future film MERCY: AI Trial, which depicts a world where AI takes on the roles of judges and prosecutors to pass judgment on human beings.
At first, I went in thinking, “Surely this is a bit far-fetched.”
But it drew me in far more than I expected.
The story is set in a near future where violent crime continues to rise.
Amid growing public opinion that human trials are influenced by emotions and bias, a new judicial system is introduced—one in which AI delivers strictly data-driven judgments.
However, the police officer who helped promote this system suddenly finds himself on the other side of it, standing as a defendant after a certain incident.
And unless he can prove his innocence, he faces execution—an extreme and desperate situation.
What makes this film compelling is that the opponent is not human.
The protagonist must lower the AI-calculated “probability of guilt” within a limited time frame.
This premise creates intense suspense, raising even the viewer’s heart rate.
AI has neither emotion nor prejudice; it approaches conclusions through probabilities derived from vast amounts of data.
That is precisely why it also suggests the possibility of trials with fewer mistakes than those conducted by humans.
If your own probability of guilt were quantified by AI—
how would that make you feel?
