Predictive Justice and AI: When Algorithms Enter the Courtroom
Predictive justice covers AI tools that forecast judicial outcomes and reoffending risk. In the US, the COMPAS algorithm was accused of racial bias and later upheld in court under strict limits. In France, the DataJust project was abandoned. The EU AI Act classifies these systems as "high-risk." While AI can streamline civil litigation, using it in criminal justice raises serious questions about transparency, discrimination, and accountability.

Transfer Learning: How AI Stops Relearning Everything From Scratch
Transfer Learning allows an AI to reuse knowledge from a pretrained model to tackle new problems. Less data, less compute, better performance: it powers GPT, BERT, and medical imaging AI. But it also inherits biases, risks negative transfer, and creates dependency on a handful of tech giants. A foundational mechanism for understanding how modern AI actually works.

Artificial Neural Networks: What They Are and How They Actually Work
Behind ChatGPT, facial recognition, and autonomous vehicles lie artificial neural networks, inspired by the brain but grounded in advanced mathematics. They learn from data to recognise, predict, and generate. From their origins in 1943 to the deep learning revolution of 2012, this article unpacks how they work, their real-world applications, and their ethical and environmental limits.
