We are seeing the state of New Jersey take strides to make “safe and effective use of Generative AI” in the practice of law. The state’s judiciary’s Acting Administrative Director recently sent an email to New Jersey attorneys acknowledging the growth of Generative AI in the practice of law, recognizing its positive and negative uses.
The correspondence included a link to a 23-question online survey designed to gauge New Jersey attorneys’ knowledge about and attitudes toward Generative AI, with the aim of designing seminars and other training.
The questions seek to gather information on topics including the age and experience of the attorneys responding, attitudes toward Generative AI both in the and out of the practice of law, the levels of experience in using Generative AI, and whether Generative AI should be a part of the future of the practice of law.
This initiative signals the state may be taking a proactive approach toward attorneys’ adoption of these newly-available technologies.
