Baden-Württemberg & Hesse Team Up for AI-Driven Court Efficiency

Baden-Württemberg and Hesse are teaming up to make court proceedings more efficient. They're launching a joint project, 'JANO', to anonymize judgments using artificial intelligence. This aims to ease the burden on courts and facilitate wider publication of decisions.

The project is spearheaded by Baden-Württemberg's Minister of Justice and Migration, Marion Gentges, and Hesse's Minister of Justice, Roman Poseck. It aims to expand and test the AI-supported tool 'JANO' at courts in both states next year.

'JANO' automatically recognizes and suggests personal data in court decisions. These suggestions are then checked and approved by justice employees. With 'JANO', Baden-Württemberg will have three AI tools in use at its courts, and Hesse will have two centers for innovative AI systems.

Minister Gentges praised Baden-Württemberg's pioneering role in AI use nationwide. She sees this as another step in equipping the justice system with intelligent assistance systems. Both ministers thanked all employees involved and emphasized the potential benefits for the entire justice system.

The 'JANO' project aims to reduce the workload on courts and increase the publication of anonymized court decisions. It's a collaborative effort between Baden-Württemberg and Hesse, with AI tools developed jointly. In the future, anonymized decisions created by 'JANO' could also serve as training data for further AI applications.
