Supreme Court nominee, Justice Kweku Tawiah Ackaah-Boafo has emphasised the urgent need for Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy within Ghana’s judiciary to keep pace with technological advances and ensure responsible use.
Appearing before Parliament’s Appointments Committee for his vetting, he stated, “I will highly recommend the judiciary to be AI literate. The judiciary of Ghana must endeavour to make the judiciary AI literate because that is the new trend.”
Justice Ackaah-Boafo cautioned about the importance of careful engagement with AI.
“We need to be very careful engaging this because if we are all literate as to how it operates, then we are at the front end and we will be able to know the dangers associated with it.”
He also pointed out that several countries, including Canada and the UK, have established guidelines for judges on the use of AI.
“Many countries like Canada and the UK have guidelines for judges, and so whilst I recommend that AI literacy should be embraced by the judiciary, then we would be required to have guidelines to guide judges so that when lawyers are found in processes with hallucinations, we will be able to know it and address it.”
