Supreme Court of India AI Regulations 2026 public comment deadline

The deadline for public comments on the draft Regulations for Use of Artificial Intelligence in Courts, 2026, closed on July 15. The framework emphasizes human oversight, prohibits AI for judicial decision-making, risk scoring, or determining bail/credibility, and establishes oversight committees. It promotes AI for administrative tasks like transcription and translation while barring personal data use for training without approval. This represents a significant step in structuring responsible AI adoption in India's judiciary, balancing innovation with judicial independence and accountability.
