Pejabat Ketua Pendaftar akan keluar garis panduan pengunaan AI di mahkamah
Ketua Hakim Negara, Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh berkata badan kehakiman tak halang pengunaan AI tetapi ia perlu ada garis panduan.
Negeri Kepala Hakim, Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh, has announced that the Office of the Chief Registrar will issue guidelines on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in court proceedings within the coming weeks. During a speech at the Malaysia International Law Congress 2026, he emphasized that while AI can provide assistance, lawyers will still be required in the future.
Wan Ahmad Farid highlighted the potential of AI to save time and reduce the workload of the judiciary when used correctly. He also shared a story about a colleague at a Malaysian law firm who trained an AI system to handle case data analysis and legal issues, but the colleague was unsure if AI could predict the outcome of a case.
The Chief Justice advised lawyers to remain honest in their duties, stressing that technology can speed up legal administration but cannot create justice itself. He stressed that the responsibility lies entirely with humans who uphold the law.
