Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging technology in the field of justice, which, though only used in limited fashion, is likely to bring potentially disruptive changes in the future. This study examines some of the most significant characteristics of AI that make it suited, and at the same time unsuited, to application during litigation. Specifically, the problems of opacity in decision making by machine learning algorithms and the lack of a way to project flexible human morality on such systems is emphasized. The author concludes that AI will be a useful tool for preparation of litigation; however, it is less likely to replace the human judge, as adjudication presupposes understanding of human sentiment and the sense of justice, which requires some degree of bias in a positive sense.
