AI Cases In Supreme Court, Chief Justice Furious!

Artificial Intelligence has started to take over the world in terms of software development and other departments. Now, it has reached the law sector as well and this has now led to repercussions at the Supreme Court itself.

The latest developments are raising concerns from lawyers and legal experts about the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in preparing legal documents and petitions in courts.

Some lawyers are worried that people might start using AI tools to generate petitions, cases, or court decisions that look real but are actually fake or incorrect. They say that such AI-generated material could harm the integrity of the legal system if judges and lawyers cannot easily tell what is genuine and what is AI-made.

One of the senior judges mentioned in the article, Chief Justice of India (CJI) D.Y. Chandrachud (referred to with Justice Suryakant in the Telugu text), expressed concern about this trend. He warned that using AI to create petitions and legal paperwork without proper verification could lead to false cases, present non-existent quotes or laws, and mislead the courts.

This could damage trust in the justice system and create professional challenges for lawyers and judges. Because of these risks, it suggests that there should be clear rules and regulations for how AI is used in legal processes. Lawyers are calling for guidelines to ensure that AI tools don’t undermine fairness, accuracy, or ethical standards in the judiciary.
