Today, we are excited to share a conversation between Berkeley Law 3L student Eric Ahern and Audrey Mitchell, a current fellow with Berkeley’s AI Policy Hub and a 2L student here. Audrey brings a unique interdisciplinary perspective to the conversation around AI and the future of litigation, combining her background in STEM with legal experience in patent litigation and public interest tech law. At Berkeley’s AI Policy Hub, Audrey has been leading innovative research on how artificial intelligence is reshaping civil and criminal litigation—and whether our current legal rules are equipped to keep up. In this episode, we will explore the impact of AI-generated evidence on courtroom procedure, how judges are grappling with issues like authentication and bias, and why procedural safeguards—like discovery and transparency—matter more than ever in the age of machine-generated proof. This episode will be Part I of a two-part series on AI and rules of evidence. Whether you're a technologist, a lawyer, or simply curious about how the law is adapting to AI, this series will offer an accessible and thought-provoking look into the legal system’s evolving relationship with artificial intelligence. We hope you enjoy the podcast!
