The Corporate Counsel Show: Students’ use of AI and challenges for university in-house teams

In this special episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, recorded at the 2025 Corporate Counsel Summit, Professor Michael Adams reflects on the myriad issues law departments in tertiary education settings have to grapple with in terms of students' use of artificial intelligence.

Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Professor Michael Adams, a former law school dean and general counsel, about students' use of AI for exams and assessments, the questions that faculties across campuses are having to navigate, and why in-house legal teams in universities have to be part of the conversation determining the right balance for students' use of such platforms.

Adams also delves into how the law departments can better collaborate with academics, the need to engage the student body as a key stakeholder, and why such questions and challenges will become increasingly pertinent for law departments in the education sphere moving forward.
