To decipher local laws, researchers used AI to build a database of millions of them
Researchers at UC Berkeley used AI to create a database of millions of local laws across the U.S., making it easier for people to access and compare these rules. The project aims to help policymakers, journalists, and the public understand how local laws affect communities. It is the first large-scale effort to organize such data in one place.
UC Berkeley researchers developed an AI-powered database containing millions of local laws from across the U.S., making it easier to access and compare these rules.
The database helps people understand how local laws vary and impact daily life, which can lead to better-informed decisions and more equitable governance.
The project provides a practical tool for the public and policymakers, promoting transparency and easier access to information that affects communities.
