AI: Avoiding And Managing Disputes – Preventing And Mitigating The Risk Of Contractual Disputes

Organisations of all sizes, across sectors, are making increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI). Although the use of AI has the potential to drive efficiencies and to improve product or service delivery, it can also expose those who make use of it in their operations, as well as the providers of AI systems, to a range of potential legal risks and liabilities.

• The introduction of new regulations, and uncertainties around how the courts might apply existing legal principles relating to contract law and negligent acts or omissions
