The Center for Legal & Court Technology (CLCT) of William & Mary Law School is organizing their 5th Artificial Intelligence Writing Competition! This popular competition is in its 5^th year.

Topic

Innovative Legal Issues Likely to Arise from Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things

Maximum Number of Submissions

Total number of eligible submissions will be 50, to be determined on a first-come-first-served basis.

CLCT will not consider any other factor or any extenuating circumstances.

Eligibility

All current law students* worldwide are cordially invited to submit one paper, which must:  

• Focus on at least one application of these technologies (e.g., Internet of Medical Things devices, facial recognition technology, autonomous systems, social media monitoring, etc.);
• Explain whether regulation of the application is needed and to what extent; and
• Propose means to regulate this application (proposals may range from traditional regulation to reliance on soft governance, and anything in between).

A submission is not required to put forward an original regulatory system; however, any novel, plausible and well-articulated proposals are likely to impress the judges. 

(*)

• 1.1) The Competition is open to law students, in good standing, enrolled in a law degree (e.g., J.D. or LL.B.), a Master’s degree (e.g., LL.M.) or a doctoral degree (e.g., S.J.D./J.S.D or Ph.D.) at an ABA-accredited law school within the U.S., or at a foreign law school with equivalent accreditation, during the 2021-2022 academic year.
• 1.2) Non-law degree seeking students enrolled in one course at an accredited law school during the 2021-2022 academic year may participate only as a joint author with a current law student who meets the criteria at Section 1.1.
• 1.3) Students enrolled in law school part-time are welcome to participate.
