What this bill does
H.R. 9715, the Intelligent Arbitration Act of 2026, proposes to allow parties involved in arbitration to use artificial intelligence. Specifically, it would permit AI for tasks like identifying relevant laws and case law, recommending document organization, filing supporting documents when facts are not disputed and there's a legal question, and delivering final decisions. This bill would apply to parties in arbitrations conducted under Title 9 of the U.S. Code.
The use of AI would require written consent from all parties involved. If AI is used, parties agreeing to its use cannot later seek to overturn or change an arbitration award based solely on errors resulting from that AI usage. However, the bill explicitly prohibits the use of "generative artificial intelligence."
This bill was introduced in the House of Representatives on July 15, 2026, and has been referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. It is currently in the early stages of the legislative process.
