Legal Technologies
The interaction of law and technology has traditionally been understood as a one-way relationship whereby law and regulation facilitate technological innovations and restrain their excesses; think automobiles, planes, satellites, electronic banking, telecommunications, or biotechnologies. This course shows that the interaction of law and technology is in fact two-way: technology also impacts and disrupts law, legal practice and regulatory choices, and does so in significant ways. The course introduces you to recent technological developments - like generative and predictive AI - that are disrupting the legal profession, legal services and the regulator. It discusses the modus operandi of these technologies, their application to legal, judicial or regulatory tasks – and, importantly, their practical, theoretical, ethical and legal limitations.
