Abstract

By exploring some practical questions in the context of a supremely impractical debate, this article seeks to highlight the challenges and opportunities faced by those trying to promote better use of intelligent tools in the legal workplace. It lays out design features for an imagined online argument manager, describes knowledge engineering challenges such a system presents, and links these to recent research and scholarship. In addition to reviewing theoretical characteristics of factual argumentation, this article considers what kinds of tools are or could be available for everyday use by nonspecialists.
