## Key facts

- Practice area: [AI decision systems](https://ailawframework.com/precedents/ai-decision-systems.md)

- Status: Maintained. Checked on 2026-11-07 against the 6 authorities it cites, for 4 jurisdictions.

## When to use it

Use for every lawyer and staff member who may use generative AI, and to track state technology CLE where the firm's lawyers are admitted. Pair it with the tool approval and training record (a45-us-generative-ai-tool-approval-record).

## How AI may be used

A tool may keep the log and flag overdue training or CLE. Each lawyer remains responsible for their own state CLE compliance.

**AI may:**

- Flag lawyers short of a state technology credit in the current cycle
- List staff without a signed policy acknowledgment

**AI must not:**

- Must not certify a lawyer's CLE compliance to a state bar
- Must not decide which state rules apply to a lawyer

**The lawyer checks:**

- Each lawyer's admission states and cycle dates
- Courses count under each state's definition of technology subjects
- Policy acknowledgment is current
