Public interest in artificial intelligence (AI) and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) has never been greater. In part, this is due to recent dramatic advances in both AI capabilities and public adoption. It is now common for AI to drive vehicles, generate creative outputs and diagnose diseases. Claims that AI will “revolutionize” and “disrupt” nearly every professional field are now widespread, including the practice of law.
Interest in AI and ADR is broadly focused
in two areas: the use of AI in the ADR process and the role of AI in the
substance of underlying disputes.
