Watch Video of What ‘AI Lawyer’ Replies To CJI DY Chandrachud At Inauguration Ceremony Of National Judicial Museum And Archive

Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud inaugurated the National Judicial Museum and Archive (NJMA) at the Supreme Court on November 7, with other Supreme Court judges in attendance.

During the event, CJI Chandrachud engaged with an “AI lawyer,” asking, “Is the death penalty constitutional in India?” The AI responded affirmatively, explaining that the death penalty is constitutional but reserved for the “rarest of rare cases,” as established by the Supreme Court.

On the same day, the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) reiterated its demand for the allocation of vacant space within the Supreme Court grounds for a library and café/lounge for its members instead of the newly inaugurated museum.

Previously on Wednesday, the SCBA’s Executive Committee emphasized the importance of consulting with the Bar regarding all major decisions affecting the Supreme Court Complex.

This ongoing dialogue highlights the SCBA’s concerns about space allocation and the need for facilities that benefit its members while reflecting on the significance of the newly established National Judicial Museum.
