Soledad Atienza - Why Lawyers Are Architects of Society in the Age of AI

Lawyers are architects of society. But what happens when AI changes how law is accessed, practiced and understood?

In this episode of Legal AI Lab, Soledad Atienza, Dean of IE Law School, explains why legal education must move beyond national systems and embrace a global legal mindset.

AI makes legal knowledge more accessible than ever. That means law schools must shift their focus. From memorising content to developing critical thinking. From national silos to comparative principles. From narrow specialisation to multidisciplinary awareness.

We discuss:

• Why law schools should not ban AI but guide its use

• How assessments must change in an AI world

• Why students must learn to question AI outputs

• Why demand for legal services is growing, not shrinking

• The importance of human skills such as empathy, negotiation and teamwork
