Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools could significantly enhance the efficiency of the judicial system but it should not replace the decision-making capabilities of human judges.
This was stated by Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Indika AI, Hardik Dave.
Pointing out that AI can manage routine tasks, analyze vast amounts of legal data, and provide valuable insights, Dave said, it should complement and not replace the nuances and empathetic decisions of human judges.
