What Is This LibGuide?

This Guide is a topical guide on artificial intelligence and how it interacts with the practice of legal research, and it is also designed for a law student/law faculty audience. In this Guide, we will:

Review integral concepts underpinning legal research,
Learn integral concepts underpinning how AI works,
Review/Learn Terms & Connectors/Boolean legal research concepts,
Learn how to do AI-powered research, and
Learn about some excellent resources that the Rinn Law Library has in its collection about AI.

In addition, the AI Learning Resources - Faculty page of this Guide serves as a bibliography or works cited page for my forthcoming law review article AIALR: AI-Assisted Legal Research - An Overview.

Library Titles on A.I.

Understanding A.I.: Fundamentals and Applications
This is an introductory book for professionals and undergraduate students without any background in artificial intelligence. The book describes how the new artificial intelligence technology, neural networks, totally changes our everyday life
A.I. and Intellectual Property
This edited volume provides a broad and comprehensive picture of the intersection between Artificial Intelligence technology and Intellectual Property law, covering business and the basics of AI, the interactions between AI and patent law, copyright law, and IP administration, and the legal aspects of software and data.
Regulating A.I.
This book assesses the normative and practical challenges for artificial intelligence (AI) regulation, offers comprehensive information on the laws that currently shape or restrict the design or use of AI, and develops policy recommendations for those areas in which regulation is most urgently needed. By gathering contributions from scholars who are experts in their respective fields of legal research, it demonstrates that AI regulation is not a specialized sub-discipline but affects the entire legal system and thus concerns all lawyers.
A.I. and Academic Integrity
AIAI raises student awareness of the importance of 1) using generative AI tools like ChatGPT responsibly; and 2) understanding how academic integrity facilitates learning and prepares students to become ethically responsible in the practice of law; 3) researching and reading their school’s code of conduct, and 4) understanding the policies of individual professors with respect to the use of generative AI tools.
