Justice PS Narasimha of the Supreme Court of India said contract law principles may need reevaluation as artificial intelligence and smart contracts reshape obligations, speaking at the launch of A Historical Introduction to the Indian Contract Act.
The Supreme Court of India flagged serious concerns over a trial court’s AI-generated judgment citing non-existent precedents. Justices P.S. Narasimha and Alok Aradhe termed it an institutional issue, issuing notice to the Attorney General, Solicitor General, and Bar Council of India.
The Delhi High Court has restrained the release and circulation of an AI-generated film that used the name, image and voice of Akira Nandan, son of Pawan Kalyan, without consent. The Court held that such unauthorised AI and deepfake content violates personality, publicity and privacy rights and directed immediate takedown of infringing material.
