New Classes Explore Promise and Predicaments of Artificial Intelligence
The Docket (UVA Law News) has an article about the AI Law class I’m helping Tom Nachbar teach:
New Classes Explore Promise and Predicaments of Artificial Intelligence
Attorneys-in-Training Learn About Prompts, Policies and Governance
The Docket, 17 March 2025
Nachbar teamed up with David Evans, a professor of computer science at UVA, to teach the course, which, he said, is “a big part of what makes this class work.”
“This course takes a much more technical approach than typical law school courses do. We have the students actually going in, creating their own chatbots — they’re looking at the technology underlying generative AI,” Nachbar said. Better understanding how AI actually works, Nachbar said, is key in training lawyers to handle AI-related litigation in the future.
