ABSTRACT
The rapid evolution of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly altered the landscape of legal theory and judicial practice. This paper examines the concept of digital jurisprudence—an emergent field that explores how digital technologies and AI are transforming judicial decision- making, legal reasoning, and the administration of justice. The research provides a historical context for digital integration into legal processes, discusses the theoretical underpinnings of digital jurisprudence, and offers a critical evaluation of AI’s impact on transparency, accountability, bias, and due process in judicial settings. Through comparative analysis, case studies, and regulatory reviews from multiple jurisdictions, the paper articulates the opportunities and challenges presented by AI integration into the courts. In conclusion, comprehensive recommendations for legal reform, interdisciplinary collaboration, and ethical implementation are proposed as strategic imperatives for ensuring that the digital transformation fortifies, rather than impairs, the foundational values of justice.
