Would be nice. But that will require a very serious rewriting of all the laws.

For example, many crimes require a specific kind of intent. I don't know at this point how a piece of code can determine an intent.

1* Burglary is an act of breaking and entering of the dwelling place of another with the intent to commit a felony therein



Code doesn't determine intent - a judge/jury decides that. The model will merely state that if there is intent to do X => consequence of intent X.

The code atop the model should be an open source inference engine.
