The National Center for State Courts will present a webinar on “Deepfakes - Evidentiary Issues for State Courts” Wednesday, April 16, from 1 to 2 p.m. via Zoom.
Courts are now exploring options to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance operations and support staff. This latest session in the TRI/NCSC AI Policy Consortium's AI and the Courts webinar series will feature a discussion of real-world applications of AI tools.
This webinar will discuss evidentiary issues raised by AI. While fabricated evidence is not a new problem in state courts, the accessibility of AI has made it easier to enhance, alter, or create evidence. Such evidence may take two forms: one where all parties agree that AI has been used in the production of evidence, such as enhancement of a photo or audio (acknowledged AI-generated evidence); and a second where AI has been used, or is alleged to have been used, without disclosure and with an intention to mislead (unacknowledged AI-generated evidence).
Panelists will address how judges can address both scenarios. Following the webinar, participants will be able to:
• Describe different types of AI-generated evidence.
• Recognize legal and technical frameworks for deepfake detection.
• Identify concrete steps courts can take and questions they can ask about potentially deepfake evidence.
Speaking at the webinar will be:
• Megan Carpenter, dean and professor of law, University of New Hampshire, Franklin Pierce School of Law
• Maura Grossman, research professor and eDiscovery lawyer, consultant, expert, special master
• Judge Erica Yew, Santa Clara County Superior Court
• Kelly Griffith, senior legal editor, Thomson Reuters
• Moderator Diane Robinson, principal court research associate, NCSC
