Abstract
Justice is blind is a phrase that refers to the idea that the legal system is unbiased and objective. With the coming of artificial intelligence (AI), can justice be mechanized? The influence of Artificial Intelligence on the legal field is no longer a secret. The use of AI in the legal field, however, also invokes many legal ethics concerns regarding equality, accountability and accuracy. This paper attempts to look into the impact of AI on these three values and aims at exploring these concerns in depth, evaluating whether the benefits of AI in terms of efficiency and accessibility outweigh the ethical challenges it presents. Ultimately, the aim of the paper is to assess if AI can truly supplant human judgment and expertise in the legal profession or if it should remain a supplementary tool to ensure justice is served effectively and ethically.
