In this episode, Lisa Leong, Mike Madison and Dan Hunter unpack "Artificial Intelligence" in the context of law. Prof Dan was on the public speaking circuit in the 90s banging on about AI - but in those days, no one was listening! He was so into AI that he would have dated Siri if she had existed in the 90s.

Introducing our third co-host, Prof Mike Madison from the University of Pittsburgh Law School - who is no ordinary law professor. Mike has been 'stockpiling' legal education reformers for over a decade. Mike gives us a brief overview of US-style legal education.

Introducing Lisa Leong, the diminutive disruptor, and Prof Dan Hunter, Dean of Swinburne Law School. Lisa reminisces about how they met - and then they chat about what this podcast is about, who it is for and why we started it. This episode explores Experience Design - and why, to them, innovation is not just "about the technology".

Dean Dan has broken out of our ivory tower and gone to speak with a third party! Mick Sheehy was formerly a GC at Telstra - and is now a Partner of New Law @ PwC. We speak about CLOC, Legal Operations and Tech Platforms. If you don't know what any of these terms mean - please listen!
