Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on legal decision-making processes. The rapid advancements in AI technology have raised significant questions regarding its role in the legal domain, particularly in decision-making processes that have traditionally been the prerogative of human judges and lawyers. This study aims to investigate how AI is being integrated into legal systems, the implications of this integration, and the challenges and opportunities it presents. The introduction provides an overview of the research topic, outlining the background of the study and the problem statement that motivates this research. The objectives of the study are to analyze the impact of AI on legal decision-making, identify the limitations of current AI applications in the legal field, and assess the scope and significance of integrating AI into legal processes. The structure of the thesis is outlined to guide the reader through the research findings. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review that examines existing research on AI in the legal field. The review covers topics such as AI technologies used in legal decision-making, the benefits and risks associated with AI in the legal domain, and the ethical considerations surrounding the use of AI in legal contexts. Chapter Three details the research methodology employed in this study. The chapter includes discussions on the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and data analysis procedures. The methodology aims to provide a rigorous and systematic approach to investigating the impact of AI on legal decision-making processes. Chapter Four presents the findings of the study, highlighting the key insights gathered from the data analysis. The chapter discusses how AI is currently being utilized in legal decision-making, the challenges faced in implementing AI technologies, and the potential future developments in this area. The findings shed light on the opportunities and risks associated with AI in legal contexts. Chapter Five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings and implications of the study. The conclusion reflects on the research objectives and discusses the broader implications of integrating AI into legal decision-making processes. Recommendations for future research and practical applications are also provided to guide further exploration in this evolving field. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on the impact of AI on legal decision-making processes. By examining the current landscape of AI technologies in the legal domain, this study offers insights into the opportunities and challenges that AI presents for legal practitioners and policymakers.
