Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.50 Significant changes in a variety of industries are being driven by algorithms, which are at the heart of advances in machine learning, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. However, their enormous worth is frequently contrasted with difficulties in intellectual property law, especially when it comes to figuring out if they qualify for patent protection. Algorithms are crucial in forming economies, civilizations, and industries in the current era of technological progress. Algorithms provide the foundation of numerous revolutionary technologies, ranging from financial applications to artificial intelligence. At the nexus of technology and intellectual property law, the patentability of algorithms is still a controversial topic. As crucial elements of contemporary inventions, algorithms propel developments in finance, artificial intelligence, and other cutting-edge fields. With an emphasis on how international frameworks and pragmatic tactics arc influencing the legal environment around algorithm patentability, this article offers a thorough overview and explores the wider ramifications for competitiveness, creativity, and society.

AI AND THE LEGAL FRONTIER: BALANCING INNOVATION AND CHALLENGES IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Md. Jewel Ali, LLM Student at Department of Law, Aliah University, Kolkata Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.30 Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the legal profession, bringing significant benefits in efficiency, cost reduction, and access to justice, while also introducing challenges related to employment, legal accountability, and data privacy. AI-powered tools are automating the tasks like legal research, document review, and contract analysis, allowing lawyers to perform these duties faster and more accurately. This automation, however, raises concerns about the future of entry-level legal jobs, as junior lawyers and paralegals traditionally handle much of such labor-intensive work. As AI takes over these tasks, fewer entry-level positions may be required, forcing law firms to reconsider traditional billable-hour models and adapt to a new pricing structure. At the same time, AI is creating new opportunities within the legal field. Lawyers who can manage AI technologies, interpret AI-driven insights, and integrate these tools into legal practice will be in high demand. The profession is likely to see new roles emerge, including AI ethics advisors and legal technologists, reflecting the growing need for expertise in the intersection of law and technology. In conclusion, AI offers transformative potential for the legal profession, streamlining processes, and enhancing access to justice, but it also presents ethical, legal, and practical challenges. Legal professionals who can harness the power of AI while ensuring compliance with legal standards and ethical guidelines will thrive in this new era. However, regulatory frameworks must evolve to adequately address the unique risks posed by AI, ensuring that its benefits are realized without compromising fairness, transparency, or accountability in the legal system.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) IN LAW: FROM FICTION TO REALITY Rohit Arora, Advocate, District & Sessions Court, Kurukshetra. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The future has already been created and AI is the future which has the ability to dominate the entire world. The use of AI has already started but without regulations, it will be like playing with fire. AI is the most powerful and risky tool, which was prepared in very less time while it should have taken double or more of it. It is powerful because it can learn and improve itself automatically without human intervention. More questions will be asked from AI powered chatbot or integrated with existing technology, and the more intelligent it becomes, and it is risky because it has the ability to dominate the entire world. Technology is the output of imagination and imagination doesn’t cost anything, but technology does. Today, some AI powered tools are free for everyone which means the data of individuals is a consideration and regulation regarding this is very much needed to secure it. AI can be used in both positive and negative ways, as it totally depends on the user. AI gives more accurate solutions than humans and it has the ability to replace humans, but not completely. The developers of AI are also giving hints about the risks to humans in the future due to this technology. AI can be used in every field and legal field is no exception. Everything is possible with technology and the whole world is witnessing the revolution of the Internet and AI is the next revolution in the tech industry in, so it should be adopted by everyone and used in the best possible way with due care.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE

Volume I Issue II /

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE Subramanyan H,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Shivamm Kansal,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a concept that has been in the spotlight ever since the day when Sophia, the first ever globally recognized robot citizen of Saudi Arabia mentioned taking over the world during a programme in April, 2017. Recently it rose to prominence when Elon Musk remarked about AI taking over the world in the coming years. AI notions are undoubtedly alien to the majority of us in today’s society but it can be understood briefly as the process by which it is possible to programme computers to imitate human intellect. Sir Stephen Hawkings once remarked that “it seems probable that once the machine thinking method had started, it would not take long to outstrip our feeble powers. They would be able to converse with each other to sharpen their wits. At some stage, therefore, we should have to expect the machines to take control.” Some believe AI to be extremely helpful since they can relieve the humans from tedious and harmful jobs while others believe that they will take over the human role hence creating lack of jobs resulting in poverty, deaths and other unwarranted causes. Thus, it is crucial to comprehend artificial intelligence (AI), their impact on human existence and how the Constitution of India could be read in the near future in order to incorporate AI. The objective of this Article is also focused on persuading the reader to comprehend the likelihood of robots having “rights” within the next 40 to 50 years.

STATUS OF MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME IN BIHAR

Volume 1 Issue 1 /

STATUS OF MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME IN BIHAR Purnima Singh, Law student at The ICFAI University, Dehradun Sweety Kumari, Law student at The ICFAI University, Dehradun Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The PM Poshan Programme was introduced by the Government of India in the year 1995 with the objective to provide cooked mid-day meal to school going children and improve their nutritional level. This scheme was introduced in the state of Bihar in the same year. But it seems that the aim of this programme is far to achieve in the state. In this article we will analyse why this scheme has not become a success in Bihar and how this is prejudicially affecting the nutritional status of the children. The article further articulate that what rights were promised to the school going children through this scheme and how these promises remain unfulfilled. Further we will also look whether this scheme stood the test of time during the Covid 19 pandemic.

ROLE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS IN MAINTAINING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE – CRITICAL EVALUATION

Volume 1 Issue 1 /

ROLE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS IN MAINTAINING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE – CRITICAL EVALUATION Abhinav Singh, Law Student at Amity Law School, Lucknow Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Recent scandals have damaged India’s business image among international investors, despite the independent director’s role in promoting corporate governance. Satyam and Enron instances have stressed the necessity for independent directors. Clause 49 of the SEBI listing agreement, Birla report, CII suggestion, Narayan Murthy Committee, and J.J. Irani Committee reports didn’t help. Tata and other examples illustrate that the independent director is operating in a promoter’s line and has failed to prevent undue enrichment by management and promoters. This article found a disconnect between IDs’ actual function and their intended purpose. Independent directors should vote and participate in corporate matters impartially since they have no stake in the firm. The Independent director may be removed by a majority shareholder vote. Independent directors may oppose one-sided initiatives to defend minority shareholders’ interests. In Corporate Governance, Independent Directors are crucial to defending minority shareholders’ interests. This article examines the Indian corporate governance instrument of the independent director. Due to the independent director’s independence from management, this analysis is significant.

IMMORAL TRAFFICKING OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN INDIA​

Volume 1 Issue 1 /

IMMORAL TRAFFICKING OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN INDIA Saniya Mishra, Law Student at Svkm’s Narsee Monjee Institutue of Management Studies, School of Law, Indore Shivansh Mishra, Law Student at Renaissance Law College, Indore Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Human trafficking of women and children is one of the most heinous crimes against humanity. However, estimating the scope of the problem is difficult because trafficking is linked to child labor, bonded labor, child marriage, kidnapping and abduction, and prostitution, even though these issues can exist independently of trafficking. Human trafficking of women and children is one of the most heinous crimes against humanity. Women’s trafficking is one of the most heinous forms of human rights violations, and it has been identified as one of the most serious issues in the current situation. Human trafficking is not a new or unique issue in India, as history has shown. It’s frequently compared to prostitution. One of the main reasons for the prevalence of immoral trafficking in India is poverty. Poor families are often forced to send their children to work, and traffickers prey on these vulnerable children. In addition, gender inequality is also a significant factor, with girls and women being more likely to be targeted for trafficking than boys and men. However, estimating the scope of the problem is difficult because trafficking is linked to child labor, bonded labor, child marriage, kidnapping and abduction, and prostitution, even though these issues can exist independently of trafficking. The Immoral Traffic Prevention Act does not adequately protect children from commercial and sexual exploitation. After drugs and arms smuggling, it is the third most profitable category of organized crime in terms of profit.
