CJI Surya Kant Says AI Supports but Does Not Replace Judicial Conscience
Chief Justice of India Surya Kant stated that artificial intelligence (AI) can support judicial reasoning but cannot replace judicial conscience. AI is currently used in limited support roles such as legal research, judgment translation, and providing case information to citizens. Draft regulations permit AI for administrative tasks but prohibit its use in assessing witness credibility or bail eligibility. A permanent apex body is proposed to oversee AI adoption and accountability. India and Germany plan to deepen judicial cooperation, including on digital justice and dispute resolution.
