Artificial intelligence (AI) is a form of machine intelligence that enables computers to do tasks significantly faster than humans. This article is about a branch of computer science that has facilitated the completion of time-sensitive tasks in the blink of an eye.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the hottest subjects in technology today. Recent growth in artificial intelligence has led to an avalanche of study and development in numerous fields, including law. Most individuals have heard about artificial intelligence (AI). An AI system consists of multiple components, including a control unit that receives and processes data and a processing component that makes decisions depending on the data received. Although the concept of a human-like AI is still in its infancy, its underlying technology is rapidly developing. In the near future, AI could revolutionize the way we work and live.

In light of recent developments in the relationship between AI and law, this essay will explore some of the potential legal implications of Artificial Intelligence. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of artificial intelligence and its legal consequences in a manner that is advanced but accessible to readers without technical knowledge. Artificial intelligence will influence the future of law. It increases the likelihood that lawyers and judges will become obsolete.

Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly popular in the legal profession. It is utilized to make more educated legal decisions. On the one hand, it aids end users in understanding legal documents and navigating the legal system. On the other hand, AI systems are used to defend human rights, assure fair trials, and protect the lives of individuals who are in danger due to their race, gender identity, or disability. Individuals residing in the most remote regions of the world, where few resources exist, may find it challenging to access the law.

AI enters the picture by providing these individuals with access to an online system where they can raise, address, and resolve their legal difficulties. Legal systems throughout the world, particularly in India, are dynamic and constantly evolving. Meaning that fresh issues of significance to the legal and judicial systems are addressed constantly. Most of us in the legal field are already familiar with the term Judicial Precedent, which refers to a decided judgement that can be used to decide future legal issues of the same nature.

Thanks to AI-assisted search engines, AI has enabled legal practitioners to quickly obtain these precedents with a single click of the mouse. Due diligence is another time-consuming and laborious task that has been simplified with the emergence of search engines driven by artificial intelligence. In this process, an AI-assisted platform can help them save time and speed up. AI will have an enormous impact on the due diligence processes of law firms, allowing them to verify facts, give data, and resolve previous cases.

Due diligence is a time-consuming task for humans, but the robotic aspect of AI will aid improve the process's accuracy. Recent deployments of artificial intelligence on a modest but successful scale have occurred in a range of businesses, including robotic hotel concierges, automated entertainment, and cell phones. A range of industries have been changed by artificial intelligence.

In terms of technology, the Indian legal industry has seen little innovation, with lawyers still using and relying on solutions and methods devised decades ago. Artificial intelligence has the potential to revolutionize the job of attorneys and the perception of the law in India. Artificial Intelligence has the potential to make one of the most major changes in the field of legal study. The Indian legal system is vast and constantly evolving, but with Artificial Intelligence, lawyers may acquire unique insight into the legal field in seconds.

Currently, a considerable number of man-hours are required to accomplish legal research, which severely limits a law firm's profit-making potential; but, with Artificial Intelligence, the entire legal community may be brought into balance. An artificially intelligent research platform may complete research in only seconds, and artificial intelligence can balance the costs of legal research while preserving quality regardless of the size of the law practice.

It can even provide lawyers with unique and very effective tools to assist them in advising clients and litigating more effectively. SpotDraft, CaseMine, NearLaw, Pensieve, and Practice League, along with other Indian legal tech entrepreneurs, are creating Natural Language Processing (NLP)-based applications and delivering next-generation legal research platforms to help law firms go beyond simple keyword searches and save time.

Numerous legal startups are aggressively developing their AI research capabilities, with some even creating their own AI research laboratories. Attorneys are now arguing whether the introduction of artificial intelligence into the legal industry will result in the replacement of attorneys and legal analysts, or whether AI-based solutions and platforms would increase firm and attorney efficiency and productivity.

Numerous innovations in the legal area have increased the efficiency of attorneys, including contract analysis, trademark search software, and legal research software, among others. However, none of the AI-based software or programmes are designed to replace attorneys, and all IA-based software and programmes enhance the veracity and outcome-orientation of research and analysis.

Important parts of the legal profession that cannot be automated include analysis, decision-making, and representation. Software and programmes based on AI can drastically reduce the time and effort required by a lawyer. In India, the legal industry is still in the process of developing, and more IA-based and automated support tools and software are on the horizon.

On the other hand, these IA-based and automated assisting tools and software will not replace the lawyer's profession, which involves analysis, decision-making, and strategizing, but will make them more efficient and competent while automating various clerical tasks. There is a common misunderstanding among lawyers and law companies that Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning poses a threat to their existence, or that AI will replace lawyers.

As proven by other industries and verticals such as e-commerce, healthcare, and accountancy, Artificial Intelligence will only enable lawyers and law firms to do more with fewer resources, hence becoming far more productive than their predecessors. I hope that the application of artificial intelligence will begin at the "Bar" and move to the "Bench," where even judges may use the power of NLP Summarisation to summarise the arguments of both parties. According to the relevant statutes and the most recent case law in the relevant area of law, judges could quickly assess which side of the argument has merit.
