Generative AI Resources for Law Students: Introduction

This guide provides an overview of generative AI tools, including ChatGPT, and addresses how these tools may be used in law school and in legal practice.

Introduction

Generative AI is driving transformative changes across many fields, including law.  In response to the tidal wave of GenAI news and resources, we are curating the resources that we think will be useful for law students in this dynamic environment. This guide focuses on GenAI terminology, tools, resources, news, and other information relevant to both law school and legal practice.

We know that students want to navigate GenAI effectively and responsibly.  Before diving into this guide, please make sure you have reviewed the Berkeley Law Generative AI Policy.

Below are links to other resources we're working on. Given the fast-paced evolution in this space, we will be updating these resources regularly.

GenAI Resources for Faculty & Staff

Here's a link to our original Generative AI Guide, which is still regularly updated. Going forward, this guide will focus on pedagogical implications of GenAI, targeting the interests of Berkeley Law faculty and staff.  If you are interested in the teaching-related aspects of GenAI, take a look!

GenAI Zotero Group Library

We’re collecting a broader group of resources in a GenAI Zotero group library. For for information on Zotero, see the Main Library's Zotero guide
