This book aims to provide and promote a deeper understanding and more responsive and inclusive governance of the automation and digital devices in public institutions, particularly the law and justice sector.
Concerns related to AI design and use have recently escalated due to the recognition of the discriminatory potential that can be embedded into AI applications in public service institutions. This book examines issues related to the allocation of responsibility in a public service produced and delivered through an automated mechanism. It encourages critical thinking about the legal services and justice institutions as they are transformed by AI and automation. It raises awareness about the potential transformation we face in terms of responsibility, agency, and the need to design a citizen-centered and human rights-compliant system of technology assessment and AI monitoring and evaluation. The book calls for a comprehensive strategy to enable professional practitioners and decision-makers to engage in the design of AI-driven legal and justice services.
The work draws on ongoing research and consulting activities conducted by the author across different countries and different systems in the legal and justice sector.
The book offers a critical approach to encourage a new mindset among legal professionals and justice institutions, thus empowering and training them to develop the necessary responsiveness and accountability in the justice sector and legal systems. It will also be of interest to researchers and academics working in the areas of AI, Public Law, Human Rights, and Criminal Justice.
