There's a way of looking at this as pretty much normal. I think we have yet to really face the fact that systems of common-law are ad-hoc LLMs (in contrast to statutory-law, which is more similar to standard programming). In particular, common-law uses an enormous "model" of case precedents that gets incrementally updated by human curators with minimal influence over it.
