Global Toolkit on AI and the Rule of Law for the Judiciary
AustLII's Datalex is a tool designed to help transform legislation into code, making legal rules easier to understand and apply through an AI-driven system. The key component of Datalex is its use of the yscript language, which allows legal texts to be converted into code that can be run interactively. This process supports automated legal consultations by generating conclusions or reports based on user-provided facts, making the law more accessible. Additionally, the ylegis pre-processor converts text from legislation into yscript, enabling developers to create applications that translate legal frameworks into actionable digital formats. Through the DataLex development tools, users can import legal documents, edit them into yscript code, and then run consultations to test the code’s functionality. This system is particularly useful for developing "rules as code" applications, where legal language is translated into a form that computers can process to assist with legal decision-making or guidance.
