How to become an author for the AI Essentials Project

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to be a part of legal education and law practice.  Every law student and law faculty should be familiar with the promises and pitfalls of AI.  The goal of this project is to create a compact, quality, curated collection of videos and quizzes that students and faculty can use to learn the basics - and a little beyond.  We call this AI ESSENTIALS FOR LEGAL EDUCATION. 

WHO CAN AUTHOR?

  • Law faculty from CALI member law schools with experience in using and teaching AI to law students. If you have taught an "AI and Law" seminar or given presentations on specific topics in AI, generative AI, ChatGPT, LLMs or such, you are qualified. 
  • CALI will entertain proposals for videos from practicing attorneys on topics of specific use of AI products in law practice.  These are "case study" videos.  They must emphasize the technology and discuss the positives and limitations of the tool and technology. No sales pitches, please.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF BECOMING AN AUTHOR?

  • Look over the AI Essentials Subject Outline.
  • Pick a topic which you think you can create a 15-25 minute compact video for law students.
  • Two options here
    • Option 1. Submit a transcript first BEFORE making your video
      • Write your talk and send it to us for review before recording your video.  We have a editorial review board who will get back you with changes or adjustments.  
      • Grab this screen background and add it to Zoom as a background image for your video. 
      • Record your video and send it to us.  
    • Option 2. Just create the video and expect to re-create it after review.
