Don't Fear AI Hallucinations, Embrace Them, Scholar Says

When it comes to artificial intelligence, most early adopters fear the so-called hallucinations that the systems can produce. But one scholar says the creativity those hallucinations represent is actually a valuable feature lawyers should embrace. At the 25th annual Burton Awards, Law360 caught up with Megan Ma, a research fellow and the associate director of the Stanford Program in Law, Science, and Technology and the Stanford Center for Legal Informatics, also known as CodeX. Ma talks about just why hallucinations aren't all bad, the guardrails needed to stay on the right side of legal ethics, and the power academia has to help shape the future uses of AI in the legal profession.

The 96th annual Academy Awards is set to air on Sunday night.

Law360 Explores: Psychedelics

Psychedelics, a class of hallucinogenic drugs with powerful mind-altering capabilities, are having a moment. While some have been used by traditional healers for thousands of years, as a matter of law today they are federally illegal substances considered to have no medical value. But the field is at an inflection point. As clinical research grows, and state and local laws change, the future of psychedelics policy is being shaped by a wide range of interests, including healthcare workers, government regulators, pharmaceutical startups and traditional use advocates. On this episode of Law360 Explores: Psychedelics, we investigate the emerging medical promise, the grassroots decriminalization movement and the activists focused on fair access and equity, all of which will determine where the industry goes from here.

Law360 Explores: From Wolf Of Wall Street To First Street

How did some of the world's biggest tech companies come to benefit from a legal supershield making it almost impossible to sue them? The strange saga of Section 230 began 30 years ago with a notorious penny stock firm later made famous by Hollywood, and has now wound its way to the U.S. Supreme Court. This week, in a special partnership episode between our Supreme Court podcast The Term and our investigative podcast series Law360 Explores, we track down the story of how a law passed with little fanfare decades ago became an aegis for a fledgling internet industry, and why many critics now want to pierce its armor.

It’s time to take your seat inside the prestigious legal classroom, where law professors teaching a century-old curriculum engage in Socratic dialogue to shape you into thinking like a lawyer. But is that the most effective way of teaching, for all students?

The Pipeline To The Legal Profession

Before the law school journey even begins, you must first wind your way through a rigorous admissions process that includes not just letters of recommendation and statements of purpose, but the notoriously arduous LSAT exam. An exceptional score can open doors at the nation’s most prestigious universities, but is it the fairest way to measure candidates’ potential? On this episode of Law360 Explores: The Law School Promise, we investigate whether the law school admissions process makes sense, and whether a system that emphasizes a test score so heavily is leaving qualified law school applicants behind.
