Its navigation requires serious tools for structuring, systematizing and processing information. Digital processes, as the most progressive, are in constant development. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gaining popularity. The latest product that has created a lot of discussion is СhatGPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) from OpenAI, which is an artificial intelligence chatbot that demonstrates the ability of digital devices to perform the tasks inherent to intelligent beings. The paper shows some issues of using ChatGPT for making a new course of Law English, a curriculum, a syllabus at the tertiary level removing concerns related to its application and utilization. The purpose of the manuscript is to describe a real case of working out a professional English course for university students applying ChatGPT.
