Join me live here tomorrow, Wednesday May 6, at 5 pm eastern for a discussion about how AI is already impacting the law and our lives.

My guest and colleague at the University of Baltimore, Prof. Michele Gilman, has been tracking how automated decision-making quietly reshapes poverty law dockets — and why the legal system is struggling to catch up. From landmark criminal sentencing cases to recent social media verdicts, this is a conversation about algorithmic bias, due process, and the fight for equal justice in the age of AI.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
