The president of the Supreme Court library, Kang Min-koo, gave a lecture on the ideal approach towards the Law Department’s upcoming changes on March 31 at the Seoul Campus. The lecture was for students and teachers to stay aware of our rapidly changing society and to suggest the actions they may take in such an environment.

The president said that in the coming years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology will be dominant and that our society will become more software-oriented.

He warned the audience that “obsession over familiarity can result in falling behind,” noting that it is important to become comfortable with technology in order to adjust to this software era.

To show how much technology has advanced, the lecturer introduced a voice recognition note taking service, Evernote, and underscored the unchanging importance of writing in the forthcoming era.

“We need to stay conscious of the new wave of change, and have inquisitive minds to innovate,” said Kang.
