The article examines the legal and practical aspects of the use of artificial intelligence in the criminal procedure of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the context of the digital transformation of justice. The current criminal procedural legislation is analyzed in terms of its readiness for the integration of digital technologies, with a focus on gaps in the regulatory framework, the absence of necessary legal definitions, and the lack of mechanisms of legal liability in the use of AI. Particular attention is paid to the need for the statutory consolidation of key concepts and procedural limitations related to AI. The article substantiates the inclusion of the definition of AI in Article 7 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, with reference to sector-specific legislation. It proposes two directions for legislative development: selective amendments to existing provisions of the Code and the development of a separate article or chapter regulating digital technologies and AI in criminal procedure. The proposed measures are aimed at ensuring the use of AI in the interests of justice while preserving individual procedural guarantees.
