RISKS OF PARTIAL EXPLOITATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE POTENTIAL IN ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS

Administrative proceedings are an essential part of public administration activities. Their outcome is typically the issuance of a decision that grants rights, imposes obligations, or interferes with the legally protected interests of natural or legal persons. Artificial intelligence is a phenomenon with the potential to be utilized in many areas, including administrative proceedings. The introduction of artificial intelligence into the process of administrative proceedings can not only increase their efficiency and speed but also contribute overall to improving decision-making processes. For now, it is appropriate to consider the gradual implementation of artificial intelligence in administrative proceedings, meaning its use only in certain phases of the proceedings or in specific types of decisions. The involvement of artificial intelligence in the legal process of issuing individual administrative acts also brings with it various risks that must be taken into account. This paper focuses on examining the risks associated with the partial use of artificial intelligence in administrative proceedings, while also considering and evaluating both the benefits and potential risks that this technology - even when only partially integrated into decision-making processes - may bring to legal practice.
