Ohio Judge One of First to Use Artificial Intelligence in the Courtroom

Artificial intelligence is quickly disrupting (usually in good ways) every sector of the economy, including the practice of law. Now Judge Anthony Capizzi of Ohio has become one of the first judges in the world to use artificial intelligence to help resolve cases. Judge Capizzi is using IBM’s Watson robotic system to rapidly organize, prioritize and analyze the large amount of information before him in each of the dozens of juvenile cases he may handle in a given day. According to Judge Capizzi, “I envision using the Watson system to give me more information in a more concise way to allow me to better treat the children and the families I serve.” This is a path-breaking innovation that will likely be followed by many other judges and courts to help create a speedier and more accurate justice system.
