Artificial inteligence in the Federal Supreme Court

the VICTOR Project and his impact on the dynamic of the Cour

Abstract

The technological innovations that increasingly affect society, could not fail to affect the law. An example of this is the VICTOR Project, machine learning artificial intelligence that aims to assist the Federal Supreme Court in its performance. As an apprentice, however, VICTOR is susceptible to develop according to what he is taught; if the teaching is correct, its performance will also be; if it is not, the result will not be. Therefore, this research was originated with the objective of, present the development of VICTOR project, as well as its operation and results obtained so far. The research followed the systemic method of Maturana and Varela, as a method of approach. It was possible to verify, from the results presented by the VICTOR project at the STF, that there was a marked gain in the speed of the procedural process. It is still a less complex function, but Artificial Intelligence has lived up to expectations, demonstrating its role as a precursor of disruption in the Brazilian Judiciary. Like any innovation, VICTOR needs to be accompanied by society in general, in order to guarantee the construction of a Judiciary that effectively meets its demands, with technology being a support aimed at this end.
