Education

Benjamin Alarie attended Wilfrid Laurier University, a public university in Waterloo, where he received his B.A. in 1999. In 1999, Alarie entered the University of Toronto, where he was a junior fellow at Massey College. In 2002, he graduated from the University of Toronto with an M.A in economics and a J.D. with honours. Continuing his graduate studies at Yale Law School, he received his Master of Laws (LL.M.) in 2003.[7][8][9]

Career

Law practice and academic career

Alarie's research and academic interests include taxation law, judicial decision-making and practical use of artificial intelligence in the field of jurisprudence.[10][11] In 2003, Alarie began his legal career as a law clerk for Madam Justice Louise Arbour at the Supreme Court of Canada. In 2004, Alarie joined the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Law as a full-time professor. He was awarded the Alan Mewett QC Prize for excellence in teaching by the law school's graduating class of 2009. Alarie is an affiliated faculty member of the Vector Institute for Artificial Intelligence[10] and the Schwartz Reisman Institute.[7] He is a coauthor of several editions of a textbook on tax law, Canadian Income Tax Law.[12][13] He coined the term “legal singularity” in 2016 and is co-author of the peer-reviewed book, The Legal Singularity: How Artificial Intelligence Can Make Law Radically Better (University of Toronto Press, 2023).[14]

Blue J

In 2015, Alarie co-founded (along with Brett Janssen, Anthony Niblett and Albert Yoon) Blue J,[15] a Toronto-based legal tech startup company specializing in using artificial intelligence for legal research and analysis.[16][17]

According to a number of sources, the company's software uses AI and machine learning algorithms to assist with legal research by analyzing large amounts of data to predict a court's likely verdict in various kinds of legal cases.[18][19][20] The company's AI software program was used in 2018 in a pilot program organized by The Department of Justice in Canada and has subsequently been adopted. The Canada Revenue Agency has also adopted Blue J's software.[21]
