Abstract
By automating processes, improving decision-making, and altering the parameters of legal practice, artificial intelligence (AI) is reinventing the legal profession. This study examines the many ramifications of AI in the legal system, emphasizing its revolutionary potential and moral dilemmas. The paper examines how well-liked AI technologies are among legal professionals, looks into privacy issues raised by networked AI bots, and imagines the emergence of AI lawyers who can make and present cases on their own. In light of technical breakthroughs, the research paper emphasizes the necessity for fair regulation, moral AI development, and the preservation of fundamental legal principles.
