As part of the process of digital transformation of administration of justice in Spain, the Ministry of Justice of that country initiated in June 2022 the deployment of an advanced technology called “Sistema de Dictado Jurídico” (Legal Dictation System), which will allow the rapid and accurate production of specialised transcriptions of legal texts through voice recognition, helping to streamline and increase the effectiveness of the Spanish Justice system.

This system uses artificial intelligence technologies and deep neural networks that are useful for deep learning and incorporated into a voice recognition and translation software whose purpose is to serve as a tool for magistrates, judges, lawyers of the administration of justice or court clerks and prosecutors.

Artificial intelligence: the EU needs to act as a global standard-setter

The European Parliament’s Special Committee on Artificial Intelligence in a Digital Age (AIDA) adopted its final recommendations on Tuesday March 22, 2022, concluding 18 months of inquiries.

The adopted text says that the public debate on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) should focus on this technology’s enormous potential to complement humans.

MEPs pointed out, inter alia, that the EU should not always regulate AI as a technology. Instead, the level of regulatory intervention should be proportionate to the type of risk associated with using an AI system in a particular way.

Debate between a human being and an artificial system

In 2018, an IBM computer starred in a debate with humans in which it listened to the arguments of other speakers, refuted them, and then surprised the audience in what is considered an achievement in artificial intelligence. With “hundreds of millions” of documents at its fingertips, the vast majority articles from newspapers and academic journals, IBM’s “debater” system (as the device is called) was able to respond without knowing the subject beforehand.

The “debater” system, according to experts in the area, has shown the ability to build arguments and convince a human audience in debates between a human being and an artificial system.
