Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
How does AI-assisted arbitration work?
AI-assisted arbitration uses artificial intelligence to support and streamline parts of the dispute resolution process, such as organizing case materials, summarizing submissions, and identifying key issues. The AAA's AI Arbitrator is its primary AI-enabled arbitration offering, using AI to review and summarize submissions, analyze the case materials, and draft a proposed award. Human oversight remains an essential part of the process, with safeguards in place to ensure transparency and procedural fairness.
How do the AI Led Rules promote fairness, transparency, and responsible use of AI?
Every AI-led arbitration case on the AI Arbitrator platform follows the AAA’s ethical frameworks and disclosure requirements. Parties will always know who their arbitrator is, how the case is handled, and what the final decision is. Oversight from the AAA’s AI Governance Committee further supports transparency, accountability, and responsible use of the technology.
In AI-led arbitration, does the AI decide cases and issue a final award on its own?
No, a human arbitrator always decides the outcome of a case and issues the final award. The AI Arbitrator does not make case decisions on its own. Rather, this tool helps make the arbitration process more efficient by organizing and summarizing case submissions, identifying and analyzing key issues, and supporting human review throughout the proceeding.
How often are the AI Led Rules updated?
The AAA updates its rules periodically to reflect changes in its dispute resolution practice. Previous versions remain accessible through the archived section. The AI Led Arbitration Rules may also be refined over time to align with advancements in technology and evolving standards for the responsible use and governance of AI.
