The author
Independent research.
A practitioner’s perspective.
I am Matthew Lee, a barrister at Doughty Street Chambers and the founder of these two connected publications. My aim is to make the developing law around artificial intelligence easier to find, follow and understand.
The AI Law Reports organises material by area of law. Natural & Artificial Law brings together my wider writing and trackers focused on individual AI issues. Both reflect my interest in what the sources actually say, and the distinction between an allegation, an argument and a judicial finding.
Follow the developing law.
My legal reports, articles and updates from Natural & Artificial Law.

Their reports, articles, registries and trackers form part of my practice marketing and support my teaching, lecturing and writing. They provide general information and commentary, not legal advice in any jurisdiction.
Reading, subscribing or making contact does not create a retainer or barrister–client relationship. No duty of care is assumed in respect of these publications.
AI use, accuracy and checking sources.
AI tools may assist research, drafting, checking, formatting and presentation. Human review cannot guarantee that every error has been identified. Inaccuracies, omissions, outdated material and fabricated references may remain.
Verify cases, quotations, citations, dates, legal propositions and any later developments against the underlying judgments and other primary materials. Completeness, accuracy and currency are not guaranteed.
