Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that has revolutionized numerous fields, including criminal prosecution. Currently, AI systems are being developed that are capable of analyzing large amounts of data, which can help courts make more informed and accurate decisions. The aim of this article is to explore and analyze the role of this tool in the improvement and optimization of criminal proceedings, in each of their stages or phases. Through a bibliographic methodology, all the information has been collected to understand the use of AI in the criminal process to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the criminal process, as well as the identification of patterns in large data sets. As a result of the present research, it was possible to evidence, among others, AI-based systems to study the most likely suspects and crime patterns that can help prevent future crimes. After the analysis performed, in addition to arriving at several other conclusions, it is important to point out that the use of AI in the criminal process also raises concerns about privacy and data security, as well as questions about how AI can affect judicial decision making, as some fear that AI algorithms may be biased or discriminatory.
