Abstract: Through automation of judicial processes, judicial efficiency improvement, and access to justice, artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing legal administration across the globe. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides novel technology capable of helping the judiciary address increased case burden, citizens' desire for more transparency, and the complexity of issues in contemporary life. In the process, alongside, there are also arising issues of algorithmic bias, transparency, accountability, and safeguarding of basic rights of AI. According to the Pressure-State-Response (PSR) approach, the research investigates how these external pressures have reshaped the institutions' practices and engineered new policy responses through artificial intelligence (AI) in the making of legal rules. The Sustainable Development Goal 16 is about keeping institutions of high integrity and ensuring peace and justice, which this paper also reflects on the role of AI. By combining existing literature, case studies, and policy analysis, this research concludes that AI has the capacity to enhance judicial efficiency and access to justice. However, it emphasizes conducting the integration of AI with extreme caution to prevent compromising judicial judgment and procedural fairness. The research concludes by suggesting the means by which legal systems can embrace the practice of governance that is able to ensure AI is used responsibly, understandably, and human-centered. Should we be guiding this complicated technological transition towards sustainability and equity, the PSR model is ready now to assist us.
