  • The dispute between personal information and data in Chinese law: the definition and distinction of information and data and their related concepts

    Subjects: Law >> Data Law submitted time 2024-04-08

    Abstract: Abstract: The Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China defines personal information and data as two separate objects, with legislation such as the Personal Information Protection Law and the Data Security Law distinguishing between personal information and data. However, due to the lack of clear differentiation between the concepts of information and data in legislation and theoretical research, personal information, data, personal data, and personal information are used interchangeably, leading to ongoing disputes over the connotation and extension of data property rights. Through multidisciplinary, multilingual, and multi-level semantic and normative analysis of the concepts of information and data at the levels of facts, norms, and theoretical research, it is found that the view that information and data are one and the same, essentially identical, cannot hold true. Information and data cannot be equated in essence and also possess normative significance for differentiation. Information refers to all information, news, and content in human society, while data is a form of electronic or other recorded representation of information, emerging as a new expression of information under artificial intelligence and big data technologies; data belongs to information. The concepts of personal information, personal data, personal information property rights, and data property rights in Chinese legal texts and theoretical research also have distinct legal meanings.

  • A theoretical explanation of lawyers’ technical competence from the perspective of China’s legal science and technology development

    Subjects: Law >> Legal professional ethics submitted time 2024-01-23

    Abstract: In the past 20 years, the number of Chinese lawyers has increased by more than 500,000, and they have deeply interacted with legal technology in practice. However, the professional ethics of Chinese lawyers lags behind the practical development of legal science and technology, and it is difficult to play the role of professional ethics standards, guidance and protection for lawyers. The regulatory gap in professional ethics' response to technology also makes it difficult for lawyers to "intelligently" advance with judges, prosecutors and other legal professional communities, and to engage in dialogue with foreign lawyers' technical competence rules. This article first clarifies the three forms of interaction between lawyers and legal technology, the scope of technology related to lawyers providing legal services, and the existing tradition of professional competence in the legal profession. Secondly, based on the legal normative attributes of lawyers' professional ethics, the article adopts the method of legal rules The logical structure of "assumed conditions plus legal consequences" constructs technical competence rules under three modes of interaction between lawyers and legal technology; finally, the theoretical positioning, theoretical significance and implementation guarantee of technical competence rules in lawyers' professional ethics are explained.

  • To expand or to maintain: the boundaries of lawyers’ duties of competence in the technological age

    Subjects: Law >> Legal professional ethics submitted time 2024-01-23

    Abstract: The rapid development of technology has brought new changes to the boundaries of lawyers' professional obligations. The American Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers have expanded lawyers' professional obligations by introducing the concepts of lawyers' technical abilities and technical competence, but they have also been criticized and questioned because of the radical expansion process. Compared with the professional ethics of lawyers in the United States, China's lawyers' professional conduct rules still maintain the existing requirements for lawyers' competence obligations, but maintaining the text of the rules should not be equivalent to maintaining the boundaries of competence obligations; in the technological era, the requirements for lawyers' competence obligations It is appropriate to expand the boundaries accordingly. The current professional codes of conduct for lawyers should be adjusted accordingly according to the different types of technologies involved in lawyer practice. First, the connotation of the current norms of lawyers' professional obligations should be expanded to include "skill" technologies; secondly, the requirements for lawyers to master "technical" technologies should be specified to initially expand the boundaries of professional obligations. At the same time, in order to achieve a reasonable expansion of the connotation of lawyers' technical competence, supporting regulatory measures for other legal service market participants who use technology should also be simultaneously established. Through comprehensive measures, we will reconstruct the boundaries of lawyers' professional obligations and ensure that lawyers have the technical capabilities and technical competence commensurate with the technological era.

  • Challenges and opportunities for the legal profession through emerging technologies

    Subjects: Law >> Legal professional ethics submitted time 2024-01-23

    Abstract: With the continuous advancement of technology, artificial intelligence has increasingly entered more professional fields, and has been widely used especially in the legal profession. This is due to the use of artificial intelligence in the drafting of legal documents, the retrieval of laws, regulations and cases, and contract review. It has unique advantages, as well as legal practice requires multi-disciplinary knowledge, specific cases require efficiency and fair costs, and the high cost of legal labor. However, artificial intelligence itself has human rights issues, ethical issues, lack of legal supervision, and algorithm problems. There are stubborn diseases such as discrimination. Regarding the legal profession, there are also problems such as the inability to solve technical problems, the inability to understand the norms, the inability to make value judgments, and the lack of creative thinking. Therefore, when using artificial intelligence, we must persist in viewing it dialectically, criticizing and questioning, and insisting on being "people-centered". Artificial intelligence is only an auxiliary tool. In the inevitable future, artificial intelligence will be increasingly used in legal practice, which puts forward new requirements for legal education in the new era. Artificial intelligence-related knowledge should be integrated into university legal education. Cultivate "artificial intelligence + law" compound talents, focus on the education of legal professional ethics, and ultimately achieve the harmonious symbiosis of law and technology.
