SC senior associate justice Marvic Leonen warned against “cognitive offloading,” or excessive reliance on AI systems that could weaken critical thinking and empathy among judges.
SC chief justice Alexander G. Gesmundo emphasized the transformative role of technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), in reshaping the judicial landscape.
