Abstract

We evaluate the ability of transformers to test if they can reliably predict the recom–mendation by a euthanasia commission on whether, given the report of the commission, euthanasia was justified. As evaluation strategy we prompt the transformer to give binary yes/no answer in chatbot mode, which we then compare to the final verdict on the 72 publicly available cases as gold standard.
