Several arbitral institutions have published guidance on the use of artificial intelligence in arbitration: SVAMC, SCC, CIArb, VIAC and CIETAC, while the ICC has a working group dedicated to the subject.
The documents differ in form, but three principles come back in all of them. Human oversight: the decision stays with the tribunal, and artificial intelligence may support its work, never replace its judgement. Confidentiality: case data is processed only with tools that protect it, with the agreement of the parties. Transparency: the use of artificial intelligence is disclosed, and its effect on the proceedings can be explained.
For tribunals, counsel and parties, the practical question is how to put these principles into a procedural order. The CIArb guideline, for example, comes with model agreements and procedural orders that can be adapted.
