Artificial Authority

A look at news and developments at the intersection of AI and Law

Every week, this newsletter looks at how Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) collides with legal practice: new cases, strange failures, clever uses, and what they mean for lawyers, arbitrators, academics, and anyone watching the legal machine adapt to large language models.

This is not a newsletter about the law of AI - that’s mostly boring, when not dismaying. Instead, I am interested at what happens when legal text becomes not only commensurable, but also too cheap to meter: what legal tasks and jobs gain in value ? Who stands to lose status ? What can lawyers do, and what should they do ?

In writing about these subject, I do it from the overlap of practice, research, and product building: as counsel (in international law and arbitration), as an academic teaching students how to adapt to AI, and as the builder of a databases and legal tech products (you may know me from my tracker of AI Hallucinations Cases database).

The goal is to start weekly takes on the evolving reality of AI in law, and eventually work on pieces that go deeper on some subjects. No hype, no sermons, but the hope to elicit interest in legal AI, and the broader questions this touches on.
