AI in justice and elections: reliable, explainable and under human oversight

AI that supports judicial authorities or influences electoral behaviour touches the rule of law and is high-risk. We support a careful, transparent and well-documented deployment, with the human in the lead.

Detail per situation

Support of judicial authorities

AI that supports judges or dispute resolution must be reliable and explainable and keep the human decisive. We assess and document that.

Elections and voting behaviour

AI that can influence elections or voting behaviour requires strict transparency and safeguards. We set those up and record them.

Frequently asked questions

Does this also apply to legal-tech vendors?

If your AI supports judicial authorities, you have your own obligations as a provider. We deliver the evidence that buyers need.

How do we keep the human decisive?

By keeping the AI advisory, making decisions reviewable and recording the human role. We set up that process.
