DIGITALIZATION OF CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS: REALITY AND FUTURE

Аннотация

The article analyzes the current state of the issue of introducing artificial intelligence into criminal proceedings, its legal codification in the European Ethics Charter (CEPEJ) and the Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. The author examines the issues of using algorithms in criminal proceedings in some foreign countries. The work substantiates the thesis that the inevitable digitalization of the criminal process should help assist the judge in organizational and legal activities, ensure openness, transparency of justice, guarantee the rights and interests of citizens, rights to defense, simplify paperwork and speed up trials. It is impossible to replace a judge with artificial intelligence, since sentencing is related to the moral values, professional and everyday experience of the judge, which cannot be provided by an automated system.
