⚖️ Putting justice on the fast track
How AI is making sure that we don't have to hire more court clerks.
In Brazil, lawsuits are simply part of daily life. Someone buys a faulty product, another rows with a neighbor over noise, bills go unpaid, and off to court they all go.
More than 76 million cases are now stacked up in the system, a number so heavy that judges can barely keep pace. Clerks sift through endless paperwork while people wait years for a simple decision.
Faced with this mountain, the courts have reached for an unusual fix. Instead of hiring more clerks, they’ve turned to one that never sleeps: artificial intelligence. AI tools are now combing through precedents, drafting rulings, and helping to push files along.
But here’s the twist: AI isn’t just on the judges’ side. Lawyers are using it too, drafting filings at speed and sending even more cases into the system. So while technology is easing one bottleneck, it’s also fueling the very flood it was meant to tame.
Brazil’s story is a glimpse of the future of justice: faster on the surface, but tangled in new questions about fairness and balance.
