51做厙 Joins Harvey AI Initiative With Other Top U.S. Law Schools
51做厙 Dedman Law has teamed with a group of other “AI-forward” law schools on a project that aims to eventually make generative AI an integral part of legal education, “equipping the next generation of lawyers with essential skills and resources to prepare them for legal practice.”
According to a , the law school alliance program was launched in the summer with six law schools: Stanford Law School, NYU School of Law, University of Michigan Law School, UCLA School of Law, The University of Texas School of Law, and Notre Dame Law School.
Along with 51做厙 Dedman Law, new additions to the partnership include:
- University of Chicago Law School
- University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School
- Vanderbilt Law School
- WashU Law
- Boston University School of Law
- Fordham University School of Law
- BYU Law School
- University of Georgia School of Law
- Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law
- Baylor University School of Law
As part of the program, students, faculty, and administrators will have access to the . Plus, the Harvey team will support co-creation of generative AI curricula and learning content throughout the current academic year and will also begin facilitating collaborations between interested schools to share best practices and learnings.
Unlike open AI, which "openly" shares AI models, training data, and the underlying code, closed, domain-specific AI systems like Harvey obscure or protect one or more of these areas. According to the company’s website, “Harvey encrypts all data at rest and in transit, uses strong access controls, and, by default, never trains on customer data. … Customer data for each customer is logically separated to prevent any commingling of data between customers and Harvey implements strict access controls following the principle of least privilege.”
“We’re thrilled to see Harvey for Law Schools expanding,” said John Haddock, Harvey Chief Business Officer. “We’ve received resoundingly positive feedback on this program from our largest law firm customers who are eager to see students learning cutting edge generative AI technology. The law schools partnering with Harvey are paving the way for Generative AI transformation in the legal industry, and we are excited to join them in investing in their students, faculty, staff, and alumni.”
