The government of Brazil has entered into an agreement with OpenAI to develop tools for analyzing legal documents related to government lawsuits, which amount to thousands of cases. The aim is to reduce costs in instances where the government loses a case, leading to expenses and time wasted. The government seeks to focus only on cases with a high chance of winning.
The AI tool will analyze case details and assess only those cases where the government has a good chance of winning, based on various learned trends, allowing relevant officials to take further action. The Brazilian government representative did not disclose the cost of hiring OpenAI to run this service on the Azure cloud platform, but it is likely more cost-effective than the current method of handling multiple lawsuits where the government is on the losing end. Various processes still involve human decision-making on whether to proceed in court, showing that AI is used to streamline processes rather than replace human work.
The decision-making process stems from a significant accumulation of government debts from court cases over the past few years, prompting the government to select cases wisely and focus only on essential cases with a high chance of success.
