Chatbot Jury: A Voir Dire Authentic Assessment Using Generative AI in Legal Psychology

In a large online legal psychology course, students learned about the factors involved when selecting potential jurors during the voir dire process. To facilitate role-playing this experience as an authentic learning activity, students used a custom web platform to powered by twelve generative AI chatbots to interview potential jurors. They submitted recommendations for who they would select or reject for a trial, citing quotes from the chatbots and using justifications learned in class. Attendees of this session will see outcomes of this activity and have the opportunity to interact with these potential juror chatbots using their own devices.
