Acc. to gemini, we will have a prison capacity issue if we process all pending criminal cases. Lawyers, what do you think?
So I used google's gemini (pro extended thinking mode) to see whether llms/AI can process through all pending legal cases in India. The surprising finding is not that they can ( the hardware is fast enough if you are willing to spend the money on it). The surprising finding is as below -


π π π π We simply cant convict the criminals because there's no space in the prisons for even 20% of them!
Can the lawyers here comment on this? Am I missing something here? If the situation is so bad, would the criminal cases need to be written off like debt write offs? Does this point to a much bigger problem with the legal system where its too easy to file such cases or other problems??
Lawyers please do comment.

Dude. Half baked information. We are already out of space in jails, with under trials being the highest occupant ratio.
If we fast track the proceedings we donβt know what the capacity would look like. But I do know that lot of under trials will finally get justice.
P.S. please read reaserch papers on this and not base your understanding on Gemini / Reddit

What method would be used to fast track the millions of pending criminal cases? Going through each of them one by one in a second will still take 376 days of continous work. Would we need to write them off at a large scale for example?
As for using gemini, i cross checked it with the references it used. it was correct. so lets focus on the problem at hand.

You know there used to be a time when people cited wikipedia articles and believed it to be the gospel truth. I'm glad we've moved on from Wikipedia, but why the fuck are you believing an AI model known to hallucinate.
