Artificial Intelligence for Judicial Decision-Making in Ecuador

Abstract

A systematic review was carried out on the production and publication of research papers related to the study of Artificial Intelligence for Judicial Decision-Making in Ecuador, during the period between 2018 and 2022 under the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) approach. The purpose of the analysis proposed in this document was to know the main characteristics of the publications registered in the Scopus and Wos databases and their scope in the study of the proposed variables, achieving the identification of 65 publications in total. Thanks to this first identification, it was possible to refine the results through the keywords entered in the search button of both platforms, which were ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR CORT DECISION-MAKING, reaching a total of 9 documents, excluding duplicates and those that did not meet the analysis criteria. The identified scientific publications were analyzed in order to know the main characteristics within the execution of research projects related to the study of the advantages, causes and disadvantages presented in the implementation of Artificial Intelligence for Judicial Decision-Making in Ecuador, evidencing as the main drawback the absence of technological tools in public institutions, which causes the permanent congestion of the system, delay in resolving conflicts and/or problems that afflict society, increased social inequality, among other factors that impede the fulfillment of its objectives in terms of governance and sustainable development.
