Abstract
The advent of artificial intelligence technology is the telling sign of the fourth industrial revolution, which has deeply changed our social life. The advantage of deep learning and big-data analysis of artificial intelligence technology makes it widely used in legal research, e-discovery, analysis, and documentation. However, the positioning of artificial intelligence is still in dispute, and the application of artificial intelligence in legal practice might lead to potential risks. In this paper, research on the application of artificial intelligence in legal practice was analyzed by the informetric method. 2932 papers indexed in Thomson Reuters's Web of Science have been studied from the perspectives of keywords co-occurrence. The analysis of keywords co-occurrence shows the application of machine learning and deep learning in legal practice. We also analyzed the review literature on the application of artificial intelligence in legal practice in the Web of Science. We found that these papers can be divided into the following three categories: the application of artificial intelligence in legal services and judicial adjudication, the positioning of AI in legal relations, and third is the legal measures to prevent the potential harm of artificial intelligence.
