Ai In Indian Judiciary: A Comprehensive Study Evaluating Operational Deployments, Administrative Obstacles, And Supreme Court Directives

Aug 2026 · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

Abstract The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the Indian judiciary represents a paradigm shift toward modernizing legal administration, enhancing processing efficiencies, and addressing massive case backlogs that have historically strained the justice delivery system. India's judiciary, burdened by one of the largest case pendency figures in the world, has increasingly turned toward digital and computational tools to reduce procedural delay without compromising the constitutional guarantees owed to litigants. This comprehensive research article evaluates operational deployments, administrative obstacles, and Supreme Court directives governing AI usage under the e-Courts framework. It examines the operational boundaries established by the Supreme Court White Paper, the active AI assistive ecosystem (including SUVAS, SUPACE, and LegRAA), legal integrity and professional accountability concerning generative AI hallucinations, and structural process engineering integrated under Phase-III. The study further situates these developments within a constitutional and comparative framework, arguing that India's cautious, human-centred model of AI adoption offers a template that other developing judiciaries may study as they confront similar backlogs, resource constraints, and linguistic diversity. The paper concludes that sustained capacity building, rigorous ethical audits, and close collaboration between the legal profession and technologists will determine whether AI ultimately strengthens, rather than erodes, public confidence in the administration of justice.

ECCOLA - a Method for Implementing Ethically Aligned AI Systems

Various recent Artificial Intelligence (AI) system failures, some of which have made the global headlines, have highlighted issues in these systems. These failures have resulted in calls for more ethical AI systems that better take into account their effects on various stakeholders. However, implementing AI ethics into practice is still an on-going challenge. High-level guidelines for doing so exist, devised by governments and private organizations alike, but lack practicality for developers. To address this issue, in this paper, we present a method for implementing AI ethics. The method, ECCOLA, has been iteratively developed using a cyclical action design research approach. The method aims at making the high-level AI ethics principles more practical, making it possible for developers to more easily implement them in practice.

AI-powered Code Review with LLMs: Early Results

In this paper, we present a novel approach to improving software quality and efficiency through a Large Language Model (LLM)-based model designed to review code and identify potential issues. Our proposed LLM-based AI agent model is trained on large code repositories. This training includes code reviews, bug reports, and documentation of best practices. It aims to detect code smells, identify potential bugs, provide suggestions for improvement, and optimize the code. Unlike traditional static code analysis tools, our LLM-based AI agent has the ability to predict future potential risks in the code. This supports a dual goal of improving code quality and enhancing developer education by encouraging a deeper understanding of best practices and efficient coding techniques. Furthermore, we explore the model's effectiveness in suggesting improvements that significantly reduce post-release bugs and enhance code review processes, as evidenced by an analysis of developer sentiment toward LLM feedback. For future work, we aim to assess the accuracy and efficiency of LLM-generated documentation updates in comparison to manual methods. This will involve an empirical study focusing on manually conducted code reviews to identify code smells and bugs, alongside an evaluation of best practice documentation, augmented by insights from developer discussions and code reviews. Our goal is to not only refine the accuracy of our LLM-based tool but also to underscore its potential in streamlining the software development lifecycle through proactive code improvement and education.

Ethically Aligned Design of Autonomous Systems: Industry viewpoint and an empirical study

Progress in the field of artificial intelligence has been accelerating rapidly in the past two decades. Various autonomous systems from purely digital ones to autonomous vehicles are being developed and deployed out on the field. As these systems exert a growing impact on society, ethics in relation to artificial intelligence and autonomous systems have recently seen growing attention among the academia. However, the current literature on the topic has focused almost exclusively on theory and more specifically on conceptualization in the area. To widen the body of knowledge in the area, we conduct an empirical study on the current state of practice in artificial intelligence ethics. We do so by means of a multiple case study of five case companies, the results of which indicate a gap between research and practice in the area. Based on our findings we propose ways to tackle the gap.

Enhanced Sampling in the Age of Machine Learning: Algorithms and Applications

Molecular dynamics simulations hold great promise for providing insight into the microscopic behavior of complex molecular systems. However, their effectiveness is often constrained by long timescales associated with rare events. Enhanced sampling methods have been developed to address these challenges, and recent years have seen a growing integration with machine learning techniques. This Review provides a comprehensive overview of how they are reshaping the field, with a particular focus on the data-driven construction of collective variables. Furthermore, these techniques have also improved biasing schemes and unlocked novel strategies via reinforcement learning and generative approaches. In addition to methodological advances, we highlight applications spanning different areas, such as biomolecular processes, ligand binding, catalytic reactions, and phase transitions. We conclude by outlining future directions aimed at enabling more automated strategies for rare-event sampling.
