Procedural problems in proving artificial intelligence crimes in Iraqi law.

Abstract

Abstract: Artificial intelligence has become a central tool in the development of various sectors, leading to effective technologies that help analyze big data and extract hidden patterns and relationships that traditional technologies cannot reveal. However, it also gives rise to many new types of crimes. Therefore, the research aims to highlight the role of the Iraqi criminal judiciary in proving crimes arising from artificial intelligence. In order for the research to achieve its goal, we adopted a precise scientific methodology that combines the descriptive and analytical approach to present the nature of crimes related to artificial intelligence. The researcher reached several conclusions, perhaps the most prominent of which is that the Iraqi legislative framework for digital evidence remains general and does not include explicit provisions covering evidence resulting from artificial intelligence systems. Therefore, the Iraqi criminal judiciary relies on digital evidence and technical clues, but faces difficulties in assessing their legal validity due to the absence of specific legislation. Therefore, Therefore, we recommend the necessity of amending the Iraqi Evidence Law No. 107 of 1979 by adding a special chapter on digital evidence that specifies the technical requirements for its admissibility.
