YANNICK PACE THE Baltic state of Estonia has become one of the first countries to start the devel- opment of an artificial intelligence-based system that can decide small claims dis- putes. Small claims are monetary disputes hav- ing a value of less than €5,000 in Malta which are decided by lawyers acting as ad- judicators at the Small Claims Tribunal. While Malta is some years behind Estonia – the country is already two decades into a project which has produced 'the most ad- vanced digital society in the world' – it ap- pears to be moving in the same direction. The island is embracing new and innova- tive technologies and citizens are able to access a range of services online, but how far is Malta from employing Artificial In- telligence in court? "Such a system would be possible, pro- vided that it is given the proper legal basis, is adequately tested before it is introduced and is properly supervised and still allows each case to be considered on its own mer- its," Justice Minister Owen Bonnici told MaltaToday, who did not rule out the use of robot judges when asked about the fea- sibility of such a system. He said that given AI's potential advan- tages, government was "following devel- opments", but stressed that one could not rush since it was a "delicate subject affect- ing the determination of people's rights". Chamber of Advocates president Louis Degabriele, asked whether a machine with the ability to learn could hypothetically oversee Malta's justice system, empha- sised the need for quality. "It's a matter of confidence really, of giving the public confidence that the system can work more efficiently and give the same quality of out- come as today's system." He agreed that small claims cases would be an ideal testing ground for such a sys- tem. "Unlike more complex cases, which he said could all be considered unique, debt claims are more straightforward and ame- nable to being decided by an automated system. "Quite frankly [in such cases] I either owe you money or I don't. There is a lim- ited number of defences that can be raised and I'm quite sure that this can be done through artificial intelligence," Degabriele said, adding that there would need to be assurances and system audits to offer those using the system, peace of mind. Degabriele also said that implementing an AI adjudication system would require an overhaul of the present system to en- sure that it is optimised for this purpose, since an AI can only be as good as the fed data. "The emphasis needs to be on qual- ity over quantity. If most decisions at first instance end up being appealed, we'd actu- ally be doubling the courts' work." Philip Manduca, a lawyer and small claims adjudicator, agreed that AI could be useful in small claims cases, given its straightforward nature, adding that it could significantly reduce the time within which disputes are resolved. "While hav- ing the system decide might require an Robot judges dishing out unbiased judgement free of human error... Could the justice system be revolutionised by artificial intelligence?
