Congratulations on a great launch and a beautiful site!
Could this be a source of volunteer research help in the near term?
Amid the pandemic turbulence, many big firms pushed back first-year associates start times—which are ordinarily in September or early October—to January.
Perhaps by reaching out to the career offices at T14 U.S. law schools and other top schools to offer to be in touch with intellectually ambitious recent law grads (including those finishing up clerkships) who are now “on ice” until January? Other AI-oriented faculty—like Jonathan Masur at UChicago—could be good talent spotters, as well.
Thank you for the great suggestions! It is definitely important to keep in mind such an opportunity. As we are on an early stage, we are currently focusing on developing a strong basis of quality work that will help solidify the reputation of the field. For this reason, we are being careful regarding growing too much in the beginning and are limiting our active search for new collaborators.
