Abstract: This paper focuses on how criminal processes have changed as a result of the advancement of digital technologies in the global arena, where artificial intelligence has a vital role to play. We show that the United States uses a range of digital technologies in court cases, and that legal start-ups that specialise in artificial intelligence (AI) are able to predict the details of a future court ruling with a high degree of certainty. It is evident that the majority of Member States of the European Union (EU) have already incorporated cutting-edge technology into their legal systems and legal support. However, a more thorough examination of how artificial intelligence complies with the principles of the European Convention on Human Rights is necessary in order to use it in court (ECHR). The European Ethical Charter on the Use of Artificial Intelligence, which specifies five essential standards for the use of AI in legal proceedings, may be helpful in relation to the aforementioned. The most current advancements and uses of AI in the realm of criminal justice are the main topics of this essay. This paper also incorporates the latest empirical data and developments up to 2024 to provide a current analysis of AI in the criminal justice system.
