ABSTRACT
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the legal domain presents profound philosophical and practical challenges, reshaping traditional concepts of agency, responsibility, personhood, and justice. AI's ability to automate legal tasks, predict outcomes, and assist in judicial decision- making introduces efficiencies but also raises ethical concerns about accountability, transparency, and bias. This article explores the philosophical foundations of AI in law, examining its applications, the redefinition of legal personhood and agency, theories of responsibility, and the ethics of surveillance and big data. It also addresses algorithmic fairness, the "black box" problem, and the implications of technological determinism for legal norms. By analyzing these dimensions, the article underscores the need for adaptive legal frameworks that balance technological innovation with ethical integrity to ensure a just society.
