Exciting Research:  Bridging Blockchain & Legal Tech with AI 

We’re thrilled to spotlight the groundbreaking work of Nikola Radic, whose research at Arizona State University (ASU) explores the automation of smart legal contracts using AI and blockchain!

Read the full thesis here: Automating Legal-to-Code Translation with LLMs

Nikola’s journey into blockchain and AI began during his professional development under the sponsorship of VizLore Labs Foundation, where he cultivated his passion for cutting-edge tech. His latest research tackles a critical challenge: translating complex legal agreements (like Horizon Europe consortium contracts) into self-executing blockchain code using large language models (LLMs).

Key Highlights:

• Uses LLMs to convert legal text into Hyperledger Fabric chaincode
• Implements test-driven validation to ensure accuracy & prevent AI “hallucinations”
• Demonstrates how model size impacts code quality in legal automation
• Paves the way for more trustworthy, efficient smart contracts in multi-party agreements

This work is a major step toward reliable, automated legal-tech solutions—making blockchain more accessible while ensuring fidelity to real-world contracts.

Congrats, Nikola, on this incredible contribution to the future of smart legal contracts! #Blockchain #AI #LegalTech #SmartContracts #ASUResearch #Innovation #VizLore
