"“With a project like this, we need to be 100% accurate, and that’s really difficult with this technology,” said Stacey Marz, the administrative director of the Alaska Court System and one of the AVA project’s leaders."
With apparently so little understanding of the difference between difficult and impossible, she should probably not have been given the job.
"Once we get the minimum viable product, let’s get that out there, and then we’ll enhance that as we learn.”
“With a project like this, we need to be 100% accurate, and that’s really difficult with this technology"
Yes, the results may sound plausible but expecting accuracy from a probabilistic language prediction engine is a misapplication and an exercise in frustration.
Most companies trying to replace workers with AI will discover the same. There are not too many applications were AI slop is perfectly acceptable.

Make that definitely should not.
It sounds like the project leader cares in earnest about the quality of what they're building, but:
“With a project like this, we need to be 100% accurate, and that’s really difficult with this technology"
Is that a real requirement? If it is, then why did they proceed? It isn't just difficult.
