Professor Mihoko Sumida (Hitotsubashi Institute for Advanced Study) contributed as an editor to the book AI Jidai no Shihō o Kangaeru (“Considering the Judiciary in the Age of AI”), published by Koubundō. The book was referenced in a recent media interview with Supreme Court Justice Masami Okino, who cited it in her responses to questions regarding the future of AI in the judicial system. The volume brings together a range of perspectives on how advances in AI technology may influence Japan’s judicial processes and legal frameworks. As discussions on the role of AI in the judiciary continue to expand, the fact that Justice Okino referred to this work highlights the broader societal relevance of Professor Sumida’s research and contributions in this emerging field.
