For this, 66 papers obtained from the Scopus, Scielo and Dialnet databases were reviewed. Among its results it was found that the largest number of authors investigated the application of Artificial Intelligence in the Judicial System The cases in which artificial intelligence is most applied is for the prevention/prediction of crimes and judicial decision-making.
