The paths to digital justice focus on the challenges of contemporary digital societies in reaching automated decision-making processes through software, algorithms, and information technology without loss of its human quality and the guarantees of due process. In this context, this article reflects on the possibilities of establishing judicial robots in substitution for human judges, by examining whether artificial intelligence and algorithms may support judicial decision-making independently and without human supervision. The point of departure for this analysis comes from the experience of criminal justice systems with software for judgment of the possibility of recidivism of criminal defendants. Algorithmic decision-making may improve the public good in support of judicial decision-making, but the analysis of current technology and our standards for due process of law recommends caution on the conclusion that robots may replace human judges and satisfy our expectations for explainability and fairness in adjudication.

数字正义之路：司法机器人、算法决策和正当程序

通往数字正义的道路关注当代数字社会在通过软件、算法和信息技术实现自动化决策过程的挑战，同时又不损失其人的素质和对正当程序的保证。在此背景下，本文通过检验人工智能和算法是否可以在没有人监督的情况下独立支持司法决策，来思考建立司法机器人替代人类法官的可能性。这一分析的出发点来自刑事司法系统的经验，该系统使用软件来判断刑事被告再犯的可能性。算法决策可以改善公共利益以支持司法决策，
