Mga korte, gumagamit ng artificial intelligence para mabilis na maresolba ang mga kaso

Supreme Court Case Acceleration and the Role of AI (Philippines)

The segment discusses how the Supreme Court has accelerated case resolution in the Philippines and how artificial intelligence (AI) may support—rather than replace—human judgment in court proceedings.

How the Supreme Court Expedites Proceedings

• The Supreme Court has adopted rules to expedite proceedings, including a judicial affidavit approach.
  • With this setup, witnesses’ direct testimonies are already prepared in affidavit form.
  • During trial, this means that during direct examination, only a few questions are needed, followed by cross-examination.

Technology to Monitor and Prioritize Cases

• The Court is also using technology to monitor cases, helping judges and justices track case progress.
• This supports giving priority to aging cases.

Recording, Transcription, and Potential AI Translation

• Testimonies during hearings are recorded and transcribed.
• The speaker suggests AI could further help by translating testimonies across languages/dialects—for example, converting testimony from one dialect into Ilocano/English.

Human Judgment First: AI as Support, Not Replacement

• Senator Grace Perala emphasizes that the judiciary won’t rely too heavily on AI.
• AI is framed as an option for verification/counter-checking, while humans remain responsible for decisions.
• The segment warns against overreliance on AI, noting that courts are not only “courts of law,” but also “courts of equity,” which require human judgment.

Clarification on AI in Bar Exam Claims

• The segment references earlier claims about AI in bar exams, clarifying that AI does not automatically “correct booklets.”
• It reiterates that human review still occurs. The senator notes she reviewed referred items and found they were not exactly correct.
