Ga. Law School's AI Policy Includes Required Course In Tech

Law360 · · International · AI Governance

A Georgia law school has adopted an AI policy that includes a required course covering artificial intelligence as part of its curriculum. The move reflects growing institutional attention to how legal education addresses emerging technology.

Why this matters: Law schools train the people who will write AI contracts, argue AI liability cases, and advise companies on what they can get away with. If lawyers graduate without understanding the technology, that gap does not stay in the classroom. It shows up in courtrooms, boardrooms, and policy offices. Making an AI course required is a small structural choice with a long tail. The legal profession shapes the rules. It helps if the people writing those rules actually understand what they are regulating.
