This year-end retrospective looks at key developments in artificial intelligence and the law during 2025 on a month-by-month basis. Each article is anchored to a specific event, litigation, or development from that month and uses it as a starting point to discuss the legal issues it raised and why they matter. Together, the twelve articles capture how AI-related legal questions developed and grew over the course of the year, and identify the areas of law to keep an eye on in 2026.
