A nationwide field study in Pakistan found that a customized AI assistant called "JudgeGPT" increased annual case resolutions by 6.3% [1][2]. The trial involved 1,559 judges across the country [1]. This deployment aimed to address growing backlogs in the nation's trial courts [2].
Research presented at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) indicated that efficiency gains were highest when paired with staff training [3]. The tool, based on GPT-4, helped judicial staff manage documentation and legal research more effectively [1]. These results suggest AI can significantly impact public sector productivity [3].
