Chief of the US Supreme assured that AI will revolutionize justice

The Chief Justice of the United States, John Roberts, issued a strong opinion on the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the judicial system, highlighting potential risks such as the invasion of privacy and the dehumanization of the law.

In his annual report, traditionally devoted to an issue of relevance to the federal justice system, Roberts provided an analysis of how technologies, including AI, have modernized justice in recent decades. They questioned the future role of human judges, predicting that, although they will continue to be needed, judicial work, especially in trials, will be significantly altered by AI.

Roberts anticipated a change in court operations and underscored the importance of judges understanding the role of this technology in the cases they handle. It also projected increased access to information for lawyers and other participants in the system.

The judge warned about the dangers of using AI, emphasizing the threat to privacy and the potential to dehumanize the law. He referred to recent incidents where an AI tool caused errors, leading lawyers to cite non-existent cases. He urged prudent and humble use of technology.

Despite other burning issues, such as the Supreme Court’s new code of ethics announced a month ago, Roberts focused solely on AI. He mentioned that several committees of the Judicial Conference are investigating the appropriate uses of AI in litigation, among other things.
