Paper warns of "agentic flooding": AI tools are straining courts worldwide
TuhinChakr · x · 2026-10-16
ProfArbel's paper Judicial Economy in the Age of AI documents mounting pressure on courts from AI tools. The accompanying charts show potential "agentic flooding" across jurisdictions — privacy complaints in Australia, administrative litigation in France, air passenger claims in Germany, ombudsman intakes in the UK, US consumer complaints, Brazilian judicial petitions, and international patent filings all surging. The paper predicts courts will erect access barriers that harm individual rights, arguing the better fix is integrating AI into courts and agencies quickly.
