'AI Can Expedite Justice Delivery': CJI At Conference On Tech, Dialogue Between SCs of India And Singapore
Supreme Court has organised a two-day conference on 'Technology and Dialogue between The Supreme Courts of India and Singapore' on April 13-14.
With the aim to explore the intersection of technology and the legal system, focusing on the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence in judiciary, the Supreme Court organised a two-day conference on technology and dialogue between the Supreme Courts of India and Singapore. Chief Justice of India Justice D Y Chandrachud and Chief Justice of Singapore Justice Sundaresh Menon on Saturday attended the conference.
While addressing the two-day conference CJI DY Chandrachud spoke about the adoption of hybrid system by the Supreme Court and said that Artificial Intelligence has the "potential to expedite and streamline justice delivery."
He also spoke about the advantages of using AI in the legal realm and stated: "In the legal domain, the adoption of AI might accentuate inequality by favouring those with access to advanced technology, but it also opens the door for new players and services, disrupting existing hierarchies. That is one of the reasons why in the ecosystem project, we are increasingly turning to open APIs so that we expose our data to startups, and new ventures who want to use that data to provide efficiency in the legal system."
CJI further stressed on the benefits of incorporating AI into the judicial landscape and stated it was time to embrace evolution in the legal system and witness how technology can be utilised to its fullest in the legal profession.
"The adoption of the hybrid mode here by the Supreme Court of India represents a significant shift in the country's judicial landscape, with far-reaching implications for access to justice and the legal profession... In the field of law, this translates to the potential for AI to expedite and streamline justice delivery. The elo of maintaining the status quo is behind us. It is time to embrace evolution within our profession and explore how we can harness the processing power of technology to its fullest," Chandrachud stated.

Shedding light on how indirect discrimination can manifest in two crucial statges in AI, the CJI said, " In the realm of AI, indirect discrimination can manifest in two crucial stages. Firstly, during the training phase, where incomplete or inaccurate data may lead to biased outcomes. Secondly, discrimination may occur during data processing, often within opaque black box algorithms that obscure the decision-making process from human developers."
He further mentioned the European Commission's proposal for EU regulation of AI, which "highlights the risks associated with AI in judicial settings, categorising certain algorithms as high risk due to their black-box nature."
"The Council of Europe's initiative to draft the Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence, Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law reflects a commitment to developing global standards for AI governance," he added.
