Critical Legal AI Literacies: Chaz Arnett on “AI and the Permanence of Racism”

The Lillian Goldman Law Library, through the generous support of the Oscar M. Ruebhausen Fund at Yale Law School, is pleased to present Critical Legal AI Literacies. This speaker series seeks to expose the Yale Law community and the legal field to alternative perspectives on AI and the law that are grounded in empirical evidence and critical considerations about the development, use, and impact of generative AI.

The second speaker in the series was Chaz Arnett, a race and technology scholar at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. Speaking to the Yale Law community via Zoom on September 23, 2025, Professor Arnett discussed his Georgetown Law Journal article "Dystopian Dreams, Utopian Nightmares: AI and the Permanence of Racism."

Professor Arnett’s article is available at The Georgetown Law Journal.
