A inteligência artificial no poder judiciário brasileiro e a efetivação dos princípios processuais: desafios e avanços tecnológicos do sistema jurídico

Abstract

This study aims to highlight the growing and significant integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the Brazilian Judiciary, primarily analyzing the scenario of high judicial demand and the pursuit of a swift and efficient legal system. Thus, the research addresses the issue of delays in the Brazilian legal system and the need to adapt to technological innovations to effectively implement procedural principles, particularly those of celerity, reasonable duration of proceedings, and procedural economy. To achieve the established objectives, bibliographic and documentary research is employed, including an analysis of legal doctrine, legislation, and statistical reports, focusing on information published by the National Council of Justice (CNJ). Accordingly, the research analyzes data presented mainly by the "Justice in Numbers Report 2025" (corresponding to 2024 statistics), also considering that CNJ Resolution No. 332/2020 was in effect during this period. This study adopts the deductive method, starting from general concepts of procedural law and the current context of the Judiciary's overload to apply them to practical examples of AI systems used by the Courts. As a counterpoint, the research highlights the ongoing ethical debate regarding the replacement of the "artisan judge" by the "robot judge," questioning the potential loss of the essence of Law. This approach opens a discussion on the need to analyze the risks and consequences of implementing Artificial Intelligence excessively and without due observance of legislatively imposed limits, requiring careful use by legal professionals to mitigate its risks.
