How AI is slowing down the justice system

The article discusses how the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) by individuals filing lawsuits, particularly at social courts in Germany, is causing significant strain on the judicial system. It highlights cases where AI-generated documents are excessively long, contain irrelevant content, and often suggest urgent procedures like expedited hearings even when they are not justified. The article cites examples from the Landessozialgericht in Stuttgart, noting that some documents exceed 300 pages and include remnants of AI-generated text such as automated greetings. Judges report increased workload and warn that while AI may help draft formal letters, it obscures the essential issues that need immediate attention. The trend is part of a broader increase in legal claims related to social welfare benefits across Germany.
