Supreme Court releases draft AI regulations for court use. Public feedback is invited.
The Supreme Court has released draft regulations governing the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools across Indian courts, permitting AI for legal research, drafting, and court administration, while mandating human supervision and judgment. This move aims to modernize courts and protect judicial integrity, allowing AI as an assistive tool but strictly banning its use in verdicts, bail, and profiling decisions.
As we reported on related concerns about AI risks and regulations, this development is significant as it addresses the need for guidelines on AI use in the judiciary. The draft regulations emphasize human primacy, ensuring AI remains assistive and never overrides judicial authority. The Supreme Court's AI Committee has opened the floor for public feedback until June 20, inviting stakeholders to provide input on the proposed regulations.
What to watch next is how the public feedback process shapes the final regulations and how effectively these guidelines balance the benefits of AI with the need to protect judicial integrity and human dignity. The outcome will have implications for the Indian judiciary's adoption of AI and its potential to influence similar regulations in other countries.
