Discredited CitizenDiscredited Citizen by Robert Kiesling
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In 2030 Artificial Intelligence rules our Criminal Justice System. Human lawyers are deemed irresponsible and too corrupt and AI are factual, impartial, and not driven by emotions. The AI systems that rule the Justice system and most everything else are controlled by one major corporation. This corporation is corrupt at its core and wants to increase its profits at any costs. When one of the few remaining human lawyers is tasked to defend a drunk doctor accused of murder, he quickly starts to realize that the “perfect” system has more flaws than advertised. Through his discoveries he starts to become targeted while he attempts to build a case that will expose the horrors of this system, while still playing by its rules.
An interesting and intriguing dystopian novel that will have you thinking twice about the convenience of AI and robots in your life and how they can easily become humanities biggest nightmare. While some things seemed far-fetched, it all worked well together and being a SciFi book, I begin reading knowing some of my expectations will be pushed to the limits of what could theoretically be possible.
