This book explores how generative AI and design are reshaping the law, legal communication, and contracting—moving beyond automation toward collaboration and meaningful outcomes. Combining theory and practice, it addresses challenges such as privacy, communication, financial well-being, responsible AI use, and the language of contracts.This edited book breaks new ground in exploring how generative AI and design are acting as catalysts for change in law, legal communication, and contracting. Together, they are transforming the way we think and act—moving beyond automation toward collaboration, actionability, and achieving goals. Bringing together theoretical insights and practical experiments, the book features contributions from scholars and practitioners working at the intersection of law, business, technology, and design.Chapters address topics such as AI-enhanced financial well-being and debt support; bridging the implementation gap in contracting; improving the usability of privacy communication and health data; and protecting artistic style in the age of AI. Threaded through these diverse contributions, common questions emerge: If the purpose of contracts is to establish and achieve common goals, why does their language so often seem arcane—like a magic spell—and how can AI help us change that? How can we responsibly integrate AI into legal, health, and commercial information to enhance usability and understanding? What does responsible AI use look like in practice, and how can design principles guide it?This book provides legal professionals, technologists, designers, business leaders, and policymakers with the insight and tools necessary to shape the future of law and contracts creatively and critically.
