In the modern world, technological innovation is advancing at an unprecedented pace and artificial intelligence (AI) stands out as a transformative set of technologies with profound social and economic implications. AI is not a single invention, but a cluster of rapidly developing tools that increasingly affect all areas of professional and social life. Its functional nature—fast, widely accessible and highly adaptable—suggests that its impact on legal relations will only intensify over time, whether in routine tasks or complex processes.The aim of this research is to analyze the potential and challenges of integrating AI into the Latin-based notary system. While several European notary chambers have already adopted new applications—such as chatbots for client communication, automated drafting tools, data-verification systems, videoconferencing platforms and electronic notarial acts—Geor-gia remains in the early stages of technological adaptation. This study seeks to identify best practices from the European experience and propose strategies to ensure that Georgian notaries can deliver services that are efficient, secure and user-oriented.Methodologically, the research employs a doctrinal and comparative approach. Legislative fra-meworks, professional guidelines and existing technological infrastructures in European notary systems are examined, alongside an evaluation of risks linked to automation, data protection and reliability. The analysis is complemented by practical assessments of how such technologies could be introduced, considering both institutional capacity and public trust. The expected contribution of this research is twofold. First, it provides a systematic overview of how innovative services can be responsibly implemented in the Latin-based notary systems. Second, it highlights the risks of technological integration and offers recom-mendations to mitigate them.
The study underscores that the modernization of the notarial profession is inseparable from technological development and is vital for maintaining the relevance, accessibility and cre-dibility of notarial services in the digital age. Notaries should not be replaced by AI, it must be guided by notaries—We should overcome this fear together.
