Abstract

Artificial intelligence is becoming an integral part of human life, its implementation is quite intensive, including the sphere of legal proceedings. In this regard, the question arises about the ethical side of the use of artificial intelligence in the administration of justice. It should be noted that the general anthropocentric vector towards the development of the ethical foundations of the use of AI systems is characteristic of most States, which indicates the commitment of States to respect fundamental human values when using AI in judicial proceedings. The ethical principles of the administration of justice in many States are undergoing significant changes due to the formation of a new ethics of justice – justice using artificial intelligence. This article will be devoted to the study of global trends aimed at the formation of moral principles of judicial proceedings using artificial intelligence.
