CJI Chandrachud Announces ‘SC Hackathon’, Says AI Will Be Used To Streamline Functioning

Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud announced on Friday that the Supreme Court will hold its 2nd hackathon, focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence to enhance the court’s operations.

During the day’s proceedings, the CJI highlighted that AI will be instrumental in improving the Supreme Court Registry’s processes, specifically in addressing issues like “removal of defects (in petitions) and formatting and sorting of judicial records.”

This hackathon, part of the Supreme Court’s 75th-anniversary celebrations, is being organized in collaboration with the Centre’s ‘MyGov’ application.

Justice Chandrachud stated, “This time, the hackathon will center on using AI to optimize the Registry’s functioning for tasks such as defect removal and petition formatting. We are fully transitioning to an AI-based system. I encourage all innovative young minds to participate… The last date for submissions is August 31, and assessments will take place on September 14.”

Encouraging participation, the CJI added with a touch of humor, “By young minds, I do not mean young in age.”

Hackathons, often referred to as “codefests,” are events where programmers and other tech enthusiasts come together to develop or enhance software programs.
