FutureLaw 2017 at Stanford CodeX
Yesterday was the 5th Annual Future Law Conference at Stanford CodeX. As always, it was an exciting day to see the best in cutting edge technology (including chatbots, predictive analytics and rules based A.I.). I moderated a morning panel entitled The Perils and Promise of Predictive Analytics in Law. Overall – it is clear that the community is growing both domestically and abroad.

Harvard Law Seeks to Attract STEM Students
There is an old adage which states that “Innovation is doing the obvious before it is obvious to others.” Suffice to say – this is a totally obvious – getting at least some STEM folks to help lead law forward is really important for the future of this field. Kudos to Harvard for this.
“School officials particularly hope to lure students interested in science, technology, engineering and math to the field of law, because advanced technical knowledge and skills are in demand. “It’s incredibly valuable to have your attorney understand the underlying biology or the underlying coding systems or the underlying physics that are driving the legal questions,” said Jessica Soban, associate dean for admissions and strategic initiatives.
This is sort of framed here as working to develop lawyers for technology – which is the right way to sell this idea to a conservative (intelligent but not technically inclined) faculty.
The obvious flip side of this is that some subset of these same folks will also help champion technology (and innovation) for law itself. I would expect HLS to try to make some sort of play in this direction … perhaps they could consider a Joint Venture with that other academic institution in Cambridge ? #Innovation #Obvious

Lexpo 2017 Amsterdam – The Legal Innovation Event
Legal Innovation is a global phenomena. US, UK, Canada, Australia, Continental Europe, South America, Asia, Central America, Africa, etc. (and new events in new places popping up everyday).
My view is that despite jurisdiction differences – lawyers are lawyers. No matter where I travel they are a recognizable species with similar business, technology and process improvement challenges.
Lexpo 2017 brings this conversation to the Netherlands for the second straight year. I will be presenting on Artificial Intelligence and Law.

Robert Ambrogi on Harvard’s Statement re Ravel Law’s Acquisition By LexisNexis
Coverage from Bob Ambrogi here. The Harvard Law statement notwithstanding – I doubt that either Lexis, Harvard Law or Ravel will provide yield the pathbreaking access at scale that was advertised in the original announcement. So I take this is a fairly negative development for this space – but feel free to prove me wrong …
