A.I., Esq.: Reimagining Legal Practice in the Digital Age

The Loyola Law Review proudly presents the 2024 Symposium, “AI, ESQ.: Reimagining Legal Practice in the Digital Age,” a symposium focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence and the law. Each panel will explore various issues arising in, faced by, and stemming from recent developments in artificial intelligence. The four panels will address a variety of topics, including ethics, healthcare policy, and intellectual property. Additionally, speakers will contribute to a discussion on the use of algorithmic risk-assessment within the criminal justice system.
