Primary Research Group Inc. has published the Survey of Law School Faculty
2023, Use of ChatGPT, ISBN 979-8-88517-182-3

This study looks carefully at which law school faculty and using ChatGPT in
their work, and what they are using it for.  The study helps its readers to
answer questions such as: How are law school faculty benefiting from the
use of ChatGPT? What are their reservations about its use?  What advice do
they offer to their peers?  How do they expect it to impact law school
operations and legal scholarship and teaching?  What has been the impact to
date?

Just a few of this 38-page report’s many findings are that:

• 23.1% of assistant and associate professors are currently using ChatGPT
in their research, teaching or scholarship.

• 12.5% of faculty aged 50-59 are using ChatGPT to enhance their legal
information retrieval and research.

• 7.32% of full professors thought that ChatGPT would have a revolutionary
impact on their field.

• In general, faculty working at public colleges were more likely than
those working at private colleges to say that their work had benefited from
the use of ChatGPT.

Data in the report was derived from a survey drawing 104 responses from 56
law schools in the USA; it was conducted from April 10 to June 7, 2023.
Data is broken out by variables related to the institutional affiliation of
the survey participants (enrollment size, public/private status/ranking)
law schools, as well as personal characteristics such as age and gender.
