I love seeing Suffolk Law at the top of this list! Although this doesn't show up on a list made up of upcoming solely AI law classes, I also taught classes on ethical generative AI use in legal practice for both the IP and Entrepreneurship Clinic seminar and the Transactional Clinic seminar at Suffolk in both 2023 and 2024. I believe other legal clinics in Suffolk's outstanding clinical programs department also touch on generative AI use at least a bit as well! #AILaw #artificialintelligence
