Artificial intelligence will have a significant impact in the field of justice

John Roberts, the chief judge of the United States of America, in a report on the occasion of the end of 2023, made predictions, including about new technologies. He claimed that artificial intelligence will have a significant impact in the judiciary.

In a report published on the US Supreme Court's website, Roberts believes that justices won't be out of a job anytime soon, but that artificial intelligence will have a big impact in the future. “I predict that judicial work, especially at the court level, will be heavily influenced by artificial intelligence,” he said.

The chief judge of the United States of America says that the changes caused by artificial intelligence will not only change the way judges work, but will also affect their understanding of the role of this technology in cases. Roberts emphasized that technology is evolving, so courts must be able to find appropriate uses for it.

The benefits of artificial intelligence should be used in the judiciary

According to Roberts, artificial intelligence can undoubtedly help the existing judicial system to deal with cases in a fairer, faster and cheaper way. However, he reminded that the use of this technology should be accompanied by caution. He specifically mentioned the problem of “illusion” in artificial intelligence, which causes the technology to produce unreal content.

A few days ago, it was announced that “Michael Cohen”, the former lawyer of “Donald Trump”, used false artificial intelligence data in legal documents.

Roberts also emphasized that technology cannot completely replace key people in the courts, and judges can even evaluate the honesty of the statements of the defenders of a case with the help of artificial intelligence. This technology can be used to detect hand tremors, voice, perspiration, pauses and even eye movements. But human decisions should be used to make correct judgments about these data.

The current report was published in a situation where less than a month ago, a group of senior British judges published guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence in the courts of England and Wales.
