AAA launches AI arbitrator to assist arbitration
Understand this story
The American Arbitration Association (AAA) has launched AI Arbitrator, in which AI completes claim analysis, document summarization, and issue analysis, while human arbitrators review and issue the final award. The service is voluntarily selected under the AI Led Arbitration Rules and requires the consent of both parties; otherwise, cases still follow the traditional arbitration process. Parties can only see the final award issued by the human arbitrator, and cannot see the AI's issue analysis or draft award. AAA says that in construction disputes where both parties submit documents only, this process can save 35-45% in costs and shorten the time to award by 20-25%. The AI does not decide cases autonomously.
