Accreditation and CLE Rules for New Jersey
The National Academy of Continuing Legal Education is a New Jersey Accredited CLE Provider.
New Jersey attorneys are required to take 24 credit hours every 2 years including 5 credit hours of Ethics and Professionalism, with a minimum of 2 credits of Diversity, Inclusion, and Elimination of Bias.
New Jersey attorneys can earn all 24 CLE credit hours with us including 5 credit hours of Ethics and Professionalism with a minimum of 2 credit hours of Diversity, Inclusion, and Elimination of Bias using our DVDs, Audio CDs, USB Stick, Online, iOS/Android App, and Live Webinar courses.
*CLE Rule Update: The New Jersey CLE Board has revoked the Covid exception and reinstated the Live CLE requirement in NJ effective 1/1/2024. Additionally, NJ has amended the CLE Regulations with BCLE Reg. 103:1(n) and expanded the definition of Live Instruction. Our Live Interactive webinars meet this definition of Live CLE in NJ. Therefore all NJ attorneys can satisfy their entire requirement with our DVDs, Audio CDs, USB Stick, Online, iOS/Android App, and Live Webinar courses.
Live Exemption: NJ rule 201:8(a) states that attorneys who reside in, work in, and are licensed in a mandatory CLE jurisdiction that does not require Live CLE are also exempt from Live CLE for NJ. These attorneys can take all 24 credits of their requirement with on-demand courses.
See our NJ Non-Resident Bundles.

About This Course
Artificial Swarm Intelligence (ASI) describes distributed computational systems in which large numbers of artificial intelligence agents coordinate and optimize collectively, producing outcomes beyond the capacity of any individual model. Emerging from advances in generative and agentic AI, ASI represents a structural shift from isolated tools to networked, goal-directed architectures capable of planning, adaptation, and autonomous execution across platforms and jurisdictions. As these systems enter legal practice, their function extends beyond drafting and research to compliance monitoring, contract lifecycle management, litigation analytics, negotiation modeling, and strategic decision support. When legal reasoning increasingly occurs within hybrid human–machine environments, agency is distributed across interacting agents rather than concentrated in a single actor. Under such conditions, questions of responsibility and liability become correspondingly diffuse, raising complex issues of supervision, attribution, cross-border exposure, and professional accountability.
Responding to this shift requires a systematic analysis of risk and the development of governance structures appropriate to agentic technologies. Conventional liability doctrines, grounded in individual intent, proximate cause, and human-centered foreseeability, struggle to account for harms produced through decentralized and emergent system behavior. This CLE therefore introduces a Theory of Distributed Liability to address the analytical challenge of identifying responsibility when no single entity functions as the definitive legal actor. Within this framework, legal evaluation moves toward standards of Algorithmic Accountability, where responsibility is assessed through the design, oversight, and safeguards embedded within the system. A broader jurisprudential inquiry follows how concepts such as intent, causation, accountability, and institutional legitimacy evolve when intelligent systems participate directly in legal workflows.
The discussion also introduces Quantum Law Practice as a model of legal operations adapted to computational scale. In this model, legal professionals design, supervise, and audit networks of cognitive systems operating in parallel, transforming legal work into a form of probabilistic and data-driven analysis. The accelerating development of generative, agentic, and swarm-based AI therefore presents significant regulatory and ethical challenges. The lecture concludes with a structured examination of the technological landscape, emerging governance frameworks, and professional competencies required for responsible practice in an era of distributed artificial intelligence.
