Description
This talk introduces the Oxford Institute of Technology and Justice, co-founded by Philippa Webb and Amal Clooney, and its mission to harness AI to close the global justice gap. It covers the AI-powered tools the Institute is building — a WhatsApp chatbot helping women and children in Malawi access legal support, a journalist safety tool with the Committee to Protect Journalists, an automated protection order tool for lawyers, and a Fair Trial Adviser for judges navigating AI-related challenges. The talk emphasises co-design with affected communities and the urgent need for responsible governance as AI enters courtrooms worldwide.
