Abstract
The AI Contract Review Guidelines was issued by Japan’s Ministry of Justice in August 2023. This guideline is important as it is the first official stance on the relationship between AI contract review services and the Attorneys Act regulation (unauthorized practice of law), marking a significant step in addressing the evolving intersection of technology and legal regulations. In this paper, I address explores the implications of AI in legal practices, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that recognizes the capabilities and limitations of AI technologies in legal contexts, while also considering the regulatory framework to ensure these technologies are used
ethically and effectively within the legal profession.
