Used intelligently, AI may save time and make some aspects of legal work more manageable, but it cannot replace the trained mind of a lawyer, the ethical responsibility of an officer of the court, or the disciplined judgment required of a judge, Supreme Court Judge, Justice Vikram Nath said on Saturday.
Addressing a conference here, Justice Nath further said technology may help draft a note, but it cannot be permitted to invent the law; at the same time, the misuse of AI
cannot lead the judicial system to the opposite extreme of refusing to engage with it altogether.

Expressing concerns over the instances of AI-generated material having been used carelessly, even in the Supreme Court, including reference to citations and authorities that do not exist, Justice Nath said false citations are not merely technical mistakes; they strike at the integrity of legal submissions and the credibility of the adjudicatory process itself.
