Prospects of Using Artificial Intelligence in Notary Activity

The article discusses the prospects and main scientific and applied problems of using artificial intelligence technologies in notary practice. The authors also noted that the intensive development and implementation of innovative technologies made it possible to introduce artificial intelligence, including generative intelligence, into all spheres of society, and the activities of notaries were no exception. However, in practice, there may be certain risks and legal problems with the use of the technologies in question, which are addressed in this study. Logical, comparative, empirical, descriptive and others were used as the main methods of cognition during the research. In the course of the research, an analysis of the modern concept of an electronic notary was carried out.; It is determined that, firstly, in the era of digital transformations of socio-economic relations, notary activity has also undergone transformation, in which online technologies, business processes, integration of artificial intelligence, management of legal documents in digital format have become quite actively used, as a result of which, and secondly, artificial intelligence has the potential to increase the efficiency of notaries in verifying documents and identifying citizens, especially in verifying the authenticity of documents. Additionally, the conditions for the creation and signing of electronic documents by notaries without the physical presence of the parties to the contract are defined. Based on the results of the research, the author's definition of a digital notary is formulated and the main parameters of the digital notary concept are outlined.
