LAW 7343 - Artificial Intelligence and Law

Credits: 3

This introductory course exposes students to a broad range of legal issues posed by the increasing use of artificially intelligent systems across various sectors of society and business. Beyond the mechanics of the relevant technology, this course examines how the emergence of artificial intelligence (“AI”) in various forms, from algorithmic decision-making in social media to the use of AI in surveillance, poses new challenges to the legal order. In doing so, this course considers the broader jurisprudential impact of cyberlaw on AI systems while simultaneously drilling down to very practical considerations faced by lawyers encountering such systems in client products or litigated disputes.
