The Supreme Court has said that it is aware of fake videos being made through Artificial Intelligence (AI). Chief Justice Bhushan Ramakrishna Gavai (CJI BR Gavai) has said that he and his fellow judge Justice Vinod Chandran have also seen the fake video made about themselves. This discussion took place in the court during the hearing of a petition in which a demand has been made to make appropriate rules regarding the use of AI in the judiciary.
It is believed that the Chief Justice was saying this about the fake video of shoes being thrown towards him. Keep in mind that on October 6, 2025, at around 11:35 am, a lawyer had thrown his shoe towards the Chief Justice, which did not reach him. There was no clear video of the incident, but later a fake video circulated on social media in which the shoe was seen passing by the Chief Justice.
The Supreme Court has asked to put the petition up for hearing after 2 weeks. Chief Justice Gavai, who is retiring this month, indicated that he did not want to hear the case. He asked the lawyer appearing for petitioner Karthikeya Rawal, ‘What do you want. Should I dismiss the petition or should it be posted for hearing after 2 weeks?
It has been said in the petition that now the courts themselves also use AI, but it is being used for positive purposes. The court should also pay attention to the dangers of AI. Generative AI automatically reviews the available data and draws conclusions. There is a possibility of getting wrong or misleading information through this technology. The information available through this lacks transparency and may be full of bias.
The petitioner has demanded that the court should set guidelines for the use of AI technology so that the judicial process is not affected by false or misleading AI content. The petition also states that morphed videos of court proceedings can damage the credibility of the judiciary and create misconception among the public.
