A thread very nicely summarizing my talk at CLS2022 yesterday. You can also find the paper here: link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Very interesting format of the journal: papers with an immediate discussion. Was happy to participate in this one. Enjoy the read!

Very soon at 16:15 CET I will defence my PhD 'Identification, categorisation and forecasting of court decisions' at the University of Groningen. It is possible to follow online: rug.nl/about-ug/lates…

By far the most important event of yesterday: Masha Medvedeva successfully defending her PhD! 🥳 Not an easy feat, as she had to convince both lawyers and NLP nerds 😁 but she did an amazing job! Congrats, dr. Medvedeva! PS: she actually made the dress she is wearing herself!

I guess I am a doctor now

Very excited to read an article about my work on predicting court decisions and my concerns about robojudges in NEMO Kennislink: nemokennislink.nl/publicaties/ve…

I was lucky to be part of the project for the last 6 months. If you are interested in the field of AI and Law, I encourage you to check it out

CoHuBiCoL has now made available the TYPOLOGY OF LEGAL TECH, presenting a trove of information on what these TYPES of systems may offer and what may be their legal impact. Based on in-depth research on the side of both law and computer science: publications.cohubicol.com/typology/ 1/

Subtask C of LegalEval is predicting court decision using judgments published by Indian courts. Using judgments as training data does not actually allow one to predict future court decisions because future decisions don't have published judgments🤦‍♀️ What is the task for?

Check out the new blog by Masha Medvedeva and I, examining CoCounsel, Casetext’s latest legal tech which incorporates GPT-4. We examine the claims & explore the potential implications of use for legal practice.

I hope that Scots lawyers reading Sir Geoffrey Vos' speech 👇will NOT use ChatGPT out-of-the-box for transactional work such as drafting, document review, predicting case outcomes, to inform strategy, or settlement negotiations. Why? (a thread) /1 judiciary.uk/speech-by-the-…

Name as many issues as you can. Go. For context this is a paragraph describing a so-called QAJudge from a Legal Judgement Prediction paper published at AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, cited 69 times: ojs.aaai.org/index.php/AAAI…

When reviewing >150 papers on predicting court decisions, we found that only 7% (!!!) of papers actually do so. Read more about it in our (w/ Pauline McBride) latest paper “Legal Judgment Prediction: If You Are Going to Do It, Do It Right”: shorturl.at/stLQY NLLP Workshop

Very much looking forward to the NLLP Workshop tomorrow. Masha Medvedeva and I will be presenting our latest paper “Legal Judgment Prediction: If You Are Going to Do It, Do It Right”: shorturl.at/stLQY Comments welcome! Looking forward to all the presentations.

Very exciting! 🥳🏆
