This is my rough taxonomy to understand what people (particularly students) mean when they say "law and technology":
- innovation law in the narrow traditional sense (i.e., intellectual property law)
- data ownership, access, security, protection, and discovery (e.g., privacy law, cybersecurity law)
- relationship between law and technology in the past, present, or future (e.g., robot law, history of railroad law)
- legal implications of new technologies (e.g., legality of electronic surveillance)
- use of new technologies in the practice of law (e.g., e-discovery, contracts written by generative AI)
- provision of legal services through new technologies (e.g., automated online wills)
- code/technology as law (e.g., programmable rules of the road)
- competency in the technologies that law will confront (e.g., basics of machine learning)
- use of new technologies in legal education (e.g., classes with augmented reality)
- policymaking for new technologies (e.g., advocating for different liability rules for internet platform companies)
