Artificial Intelligence Initiative

Michigan Law students present their findings during the 2026 AI Law and Policy Clinic Fair.

Artificial Intelligence at Michigan Law

AI is transforming how law is practiced, taught, and understood. From developing research tools to expanding legal access to untangling doomerism, our faculty and students are grappling with what AI means for access to justice, the practice of law, human and civil rights, legal ethics, environmental regulations, and so much more.

Michigan Law is meeting this moment with tools, resources, and academic rigor designed to forge the next generation of legal advocates, scholars, and policymakers.
