Her commitment to strengthening German-Chinese economic ties has been truly invaluable.

We wish her all the best in her next chapter! 🌟

In late January 2026, the Supreme People’s Court (SPC) of the People’s Republic of China (中华人民共和国最高人民法院) convened the annual “Judges’ Forum” under the theme “Digital Empowerment for Enhancing Judicial Quality”. This gathering was not merely a routine assembly but a significant signal of a profound transformation underway: the large-scale integration of artificial intelligence into the judicial process. Across the country, from first-instance courts to the SPC itself, AI-powered systems are being rolled out, fundamentally altering the landscape of Chinese justice. While popular media often dramatizes this as the advent of a “digital judge”, reality is a more nuanced, yet equally revolutionary, implementation of AI as a cognitive partner in the courtroom. The central question is not whether AI will replace judges—a possibility explicitly rejected by the SPC—but rather how the synergy between human adjudicators and machine intelligence is reshaping the very definition of judicial fairness and efficiency.
