Law School Calls for Presentations for Artificial Intelligence Conference
The School of Law is seeking presentation proposals for its upcoming conference Artificial Intelligence: Thinking About Law, Law Practice and Legal Education.
Slated for Friday, April 26, and Saturday, April 27, the conference is designed for lawyers, technologists, policy makers and legal educators.
Educators, practitioners, policymakers and computer scientists are invited to submit proposals for 30-minute or 50-minute presentations that demonstrate artificial intelligence’s effect on society, the law, the legal profession and legal education. The submission deadline is Monday, Dec. 3.
Artificial Intelligence: Thinking About Law, Law Practice and Legal Education is inspired by the significant impact of artificial intelligence on everything from autonomous vehicles and robotic surgery to smart phones and smart speakers.
Possible topics include:
- The use (and limits) of artificial intelligence in replicating legal reasoning
- The use of artificial intelligence to better inform legal rules
- Artificial Intelligence and e-Discovery
- The role of artificial intelligence in lawyers’ choices of courts and predicting the speed and results of judicial decision-making
- Changes in legal research instruction triggered by artificial intelligence
