Abstract

The study aims to define what artificial intelligence (AI) is and how it can be used as an expert in criminal justice. The main question of the study is what is the difference between using AI as experts in the future to give expert evidence and to assist the judge in decision-making in an adversarial system or in an inquisitorial system? The study, which is based on a comparative analysis of evidence systems, also aims to compare human experts with AI experts. The study considers situations in which AI could be used to give evidence in court, and raises the following key questions on the subject. It discusses the relevance and admissibility of expert evidence and whether there is a level of certainty to accept, for example, the AI expert’s opinion as always true. In different legal systems, the process of adapting artificial evidence as expert testimony is different, and therefore different legal adaptations are needed, coupled with different directions of extensive research and development. AI can only provide its expert opinion based on the data stored in its algorithms. Lack of input means lack of experience in interpreting and evaluating data. The main result of the comparative analysis is that if we consider AI as an expert in an adversarial or inquisitorial, or even mixed, system, the aim should not be to replace human expertise, but to allow AI and human experts to coexist, and eventually to identify the domains in which AI could be developed and used more than in others. Dactyloscopy, image identification, graphology are typical areas where AI is being used successfully and further reinforcement is welcome. The study also highlights the use of AI in the legal profession in general and the issues surrounding the use of AI as a human expert witness.
