Artificial intelligence now influences nearly every stage of the criminal process—from data driven policing and digital forensics to sentencing algorithms. Yet the opacity of these tools raises urgent questions about fairness, accountability, and the right to a transparent defense. This symposium explores the ethical and evidentiary implications of AI in criminal law, focusing on algorithmic bias, trade secrets, police surveillance, and the tension between technological innovation and constitutional protections.
