Chief Justice Andrew Bell flags generative AI as major challenge for justice system as Supreme Court of NSW celebrates bicentenaryThe highest-ranking judge of Australia's oldest court has flagged generative AI as one of the biggest challenges facing the justice system.
"The power of AI, including not just documents but mimicking voices, presents huge opportunities for fraud or attempted fraud," he says.It offers "the ability to interrogate vast databases of material", therefore AI raises questions about expert reports in complex matters. In some senses, generative AI presents as a modern variety of forgery, which Chief Justice Bell points out isn't a novel issue.
Even from its early days, the Supreme Court often served as a form of theatre and a forum reflecting political and social issues. "There's great human drama in the courts and part of the role of judges is to resolve those disputes fairly and systematically, but also sensitively." They had been staying on a station at Myall Creek in a harmonious agreement with its owner, and then attorney-general John Hubert Plunkett decided the case should go to court.
There is also now a sentencing approach in NSW which identifies systemic disadvantage, along with the District Court's Walama List — a form of sentencing which involves Aboriginal elders and a focus on therapeutic justice. Women were barred from the legal profession in NSW until 1918, but even after that barrier was lifted, it wasn't until 1987 that the state saw its first female Supreme Court Justice, Jane Mathews, who Chief Justice Bell says was a trailblazer.
