Abstract: The development of artificial intelligence has brought challenges to the field of law. Higher education of law in China should cultivate students' legal practice ability, big data thinking ability and computational thinking ability to cope with the new requirements for legal talents brought by artificial intelligence. However, from the current practice, the legal education in China is difficult to meet the training needs of legal talents in the era of artificial intelligence in terms of training objectives, curriculum system and practical conditions. So it is suggested that, firstly, we should promote the cultivation of students' ability to apply law from the aspects of teachers and courses; secondly, the course system of artificial intelligence law should be create from both theoretical and practical aspects; finally, the traditional teaching method should be reformed with the aid of artificial intelligence legal system.
