Międzynarodowy Trybunał Karny wkracza w przyszłość: dowody elektroniczne i sztuczna inteligencja

Przegląd Sądowy 2026, nr 1, s. 5-18.

Both the nature of international crimes and the scale of investigations conducted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) require specialized methodology and require the use of digital tools. The technological complexity of the digital data being assessed and its volume mean that algorithmic data management has to become an essential element of conducting investigations into international crimes. The ICC makes extensive use of open-source evidence (OSINT) and has adopted an innovative approach to the collection and analysis of such evidence. This article presents new digital tools for the investigative operations of the Office of the ICC Prosecutor (OTP) and the approach of the ICC Trial Chamber to evidence obtained from open sources and digital databases. It also discusses the OTP’s use of artificial intelligence for data analysis during investigations, which forces an analysis of the effects, and primarily the potential threats of this new tool.
