An international conference at Lviv Polytechnic brought together members of Ukraine’s judiciary and experts from across Europe to consider the opportunities and limits of artificial intelligence in justice. The Telegram channel @people_of_action reported on the event on Friday, November 13.

Andrii Hodyk, first deputy head of the Lviv Regional State Administration, addressed the participants and thanked the organizers for again choosing the university as the venue. He urged delegates to develop clear positions on where AI may assist court proceedings and where safeguards are required.

Discussions were divided into three areas: international standards, judicial independence and human rights; the digital transformation of courts based on Ukrainian and foreign experience; and AI applications in taxation and public administration. Speakers represented institutions from Ukraine, the Netherlands, Finland, Austria, Lithuania, Ireland, Portugal, Germany, Slovakia, Italy and the United Kingdom.
