Title: How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming Access to Greek Legislation

Abstract: Archimedes Research Unit is working to improve access to legal information through artificial intelligence. We introduce GreekBarBench, a unique framework for evaluating LLMs on Greek legal reasoning. Based on our findings, we developed Eureka, an AI-powered chatbot designed to assist with legal queries in Greek. Eureka provides citizens with clear answers to their legal questions, backing them up with direct references to official legislative documents. Together, GreekBarBench and Eureka are a first step toward changing how Greek citizens can access and understand their country's laws.
