Abstract

In today's digital era, the possibility of integrating artificial intelligence systems into the legal field has sparked a profound debate about automated justice administration. This article explores two paradigmatic approaches in conceptualizing a "robot judge": the rule-based and the adaptive. While the former focuses on an explicit encoding of the law, ensuring predictability and transparency, inspired by AlphaZero, the latter, inspired by AlphaGo, continuously adapts to jurisprudence, offering flexibility and evolutionary capacity. Through a detailed analysis, the advantages, limitations, and potential applications of both models are discussed. Likewise, two specific examples of a Robot Judge based on each of the models are shown, all based on Python and Tkinter, for AI resolution of lawsuits related to the termination of employment contracts due to delays in salary payments and on the review of permanent disabilities due to improvement.
