Dan’s research and teaching focus is on using AI for legal services and the regulation of AI in society. For instance, we can develop AI tools to help individuals understand their responsibilities and rights, and preserve and enforce those rights. People in businesses, large and small, are already using chatbots, AI assistants and other AI tools to help them comply with laws, regulations and internal policies. Additionally, new roles are emerging in the legal industry, such as legal engineers who build systems, legal data scientists and legal operations professionals. AI tools will then quickly re-optimize decisions associated with inventory shipments, staffing and promotions.

CNBC's Jim Cramer told investors on Thursday that above all else, they should not underestimate the transformative power of generative artificial intelligence, as it has the potential to revolutionize most industries, from auto manufacturing to fast food. "Tonight, I want to explain why the AI bulls could actually be right," Cramer said. Cramer stressed you should not get bogged down in the ethereal, macro way in which many authorities discuss the potential of AI. Although the industry is not always in the public eye, Cramer told viewers to remember that it is a multitrillion-dollar industry and the biggest one in the world. Fast-food chain Jack In The Box is already using AI in its drive thru locations, which CEO Darin Harris said saves on the cost of employees and actually manages to up-sell more efficiently to customers.
