Artificial intelligence in legal research: a savior or a bubble

Although artificial intelligence is not a new subject, it has attracted wide attention from all walks of life in recent years. At present, we have entered the era of “artificial intelligence 2.0”.During this period, the intersection and integration between artificial intelligence and other academic researches became increasingly close. For law, it is more closely integrated with artificial intelligence. Throughout the Chinese academic circle, there are numerous articles on the study of artificial intelligence law. Artificial intelligence has opened up new methods and fields of legal research. However, a great deal of academic research is superficial without theoretical depth. These studies only focus on the relationship between artificial intelligence and jurisprudence without systematically demonstrating the connection between artificial intelligence and jurisprudence. Artificial intelligence in legal research emphasizes the optimization of research methods and the transformation of research paths. The academic circle must reflect on it and break the “bubble” of legal research.
