Laws often do not regulate phenomena in society, especially those related to technology, especially in Indonesia. One thing related to technology that is not yet regulated in Indonesia is artificial intelligence (AI). This of course has the juridical consequence of creating dualism in the legality of the use of AI, including by the Panel of Judges in law enforcement. Regarding this problem, the problem formulation in this article is first, the characteristics of the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement and second, the urgency of using artificial intelligence by the panel of judges in law enforcement. This research is legal research with statutory, conceptual and comparative approaches. The data in this article is secondary data in the form of primary and secondary legal materials. The results of this article are first, the characteristics of the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement vary according to the qualifications of the law enforcer. There are law enforcers in the world who are already using AI in law enforcement, Police, Prosecutors, Judges and Advocates. Second, the urgency of using artificial intelligence by the panel of judges in law enforcement is that AI can be used as a tool to make it easier for judges to make decisions. With judges being able to make decisions faster, it will increasingly bring about fast, simple and low-cost justice, as mandated in Article 4 paragraph (1) Law Number 48 of 2009 concerning Judicial Power.
