I don't remember that, probably because it happened in a different country than mine, but in any case it is an example that the problem already exists. The article does get close (but not quite) to addressing the problem when it suggests 'This means that beyond writing them, AI could help lawmakers understand laws', but by focusing on AI writing complex laws, the article is basically proposing the same problem — but now with AI™!
Laws don't need to be understood only by lawmakers, they need to be understood by the citizenry to whom they apply. If AI can be used to actually simplify the laws themselves, making them easier to understand as enacted to lawmakers and citizens [0], that is more than welcome! But this proposal, which appears to come from Bruce Schneider and a data scientist, rather than any legal or ethical scholar, is bonkers.
