The Plenary of the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) is expected to unanimously approve an ambitious plan this Wednesday to promote training in artificial intelligence (AI) among Spanish judges, although doubts about the project's funding persist. After renewing its committees in September, the CGPJ tasked members Esther Erice, Luis Martín Contreras, José María Páez, José Luis Costa Pillado, and José Antonio Montero with preparing a diagnosis on the use of AI in justice. The report, which will be voted on in the Plenary, aims to make AI training a strategic objective for the governing body of judges. According to José Antonio Montero, a Supreme Court judge and one of the plan's leaders, the proposal includes making AI training mandatory for all judges at the Judicial School and offering it to over 5,400 members of the judiciary. Additionally, an advanced specialization level is planned for between 150 and 250 judges. The CGPJ emphasizes the importance of this update, as its estimates suggest that 80% of law firms in Spain already use AI tools to draft documents. Although there are no official data, the scale of the phenomenon necessitates establishing internal guidance for judges on the proper use of these technologies. The initiative partly responds to complaints about the improper use of AI, such as using tools like Copilot or ChatGPT to search for case law or draft documents, raising concerns about data protection and evidence assessment. Montero stresses the need for training and regulation, although he acknowledges that the lack of budget is a barrier, as the plan is designed for the next five years and aligned with European guidelines. Regarding the European Regulation on AI, the CGPJ considers the use of generative AI in the legal field to be high-risk and requires a proactive approach, while ensuring that judicial decisions remain a human product. The Council also seeks to advance the convergence of systems among various judicial bodies, the Ministry of Justice, autonomous communities, the Prosecutor's Office, registrars, and the Police, aiming to automate records and strengthen cybersecurity, following cases of identity theft involving judges. The CGPJ aspires for digitalization and the implementation of AI to be strategic objectives, although securing funding, including potential contributions from European funds, will be essential. The Council takes the lead in regulating these technologies, aware that fundamental rights of citizens are at stake.
