Rethinking Legal Education in the AI Era
The University of Chicago Law School is taking up the question of how legal education should change as AI reshapes the practice of law.
Why this matters: Law schools train the people who will write privacy rules, argue surveillance cases, and decide what AI companies can and cannot do. If those people graduate without understanding how AI systems actually work, they are less equipped to hold anyone accountable. This is not just a curriculum debate. It shapes who gets to make the rules and whether they understand what they are regulating.
