Edwina Rissland discusses developments in the interdisciplinary field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the law. AI technology, combined the structured models of legal argument, can enable lawyers to view patterns in legal reasoning from new and innovative perspectives. Rissland proposes that, by looking to the developments in AI technology in the legal context, as well as barriers to its deeper integration, lawyers can make substantial progress towards the creation of models of legal reasoning and prediction.
