Code: FRACT25AI25
Location: In-person or online
Duration: Three days onsite • 5 online sessions
Level: FHEQ Level 6
Prerequisites: This course is for the Legal Industry
Description: Being involved in legal casework should not mean having to understand coding and AI. Unfortunately AI and software is becoming more prevalent within casework but it comes with ‘IP’ protections and a lack of any documentation around transparency. This means we can be dealing with a black box. This software would not be quality checked by MOJ or the Government Software Portal and so it is key to be informed when using it.
We have a bespoke system, that is in use in live court cases now, to enable you to ask the right questions in court and obtain the transparency of any AI or software package.
Instructor: The course lead is Dr Marie Oldfield. Dr Oldfield is a legal expert witness, CEO of Oldfield Consultancy, Founder of Simeko AI and Head of Fractal AI. Dr Oldfield is a former Senior Lecturer in Practice at LSE. Dr Oldfield is a Chartered Statistician (CStat) of the Royal Statistical Society; a Science Council Chartered Scientist (CSci); and an Expert in Artificial Intelligence (CFAIE) at Fractal AI.
