Abstract

Contextualization: During the early days of artificial intelligence research, computer scientists attempted to create algorithms that mimicked human intelligence by attempting to comprehend and recreate human cognitive processes has been predicted also to be used in a wide variety of tasks in international arbitration, including the appointment of arbitrators.

Objectives: This paper examine if and how artificial intelligence may be used to assist or even replace arbitrators in their role of resolving disputes. Notably, this article is not about online arbitration, which refers to procedures in which processes are simplified via the use of technology, such as electronic filings, but where human arbitrators continue to make decisions.

Methodology:The research uses the inductive method and a literature review.

Result: International arbitration, which is always criticized for being overly costly and time-consuming, must take the assertion made by certain artificial intelligence developers that computers can accomplish the job of 360,000 attorneys seriously. Further study is required to determine the optimal technique to mix human decision-makers with artificial intelligence to get the most efficient outcomes.
