How failure to identify AI risks can lead to unexpected legal liability [Q&A]

The rise of generative AI is revolutionizing industries, yet it also carries significant risks like security breaches and data privacy concerns. Experts highlight that businesses must first identify all relevant risks to minimize liability. For instance, chatbots in HR may lead to inaccurate employee benefits claims, while AI recruitment tools could perpetuate bias based on past hiring patterns. Legal cases show companies using AI without proper notice or consent can face lawsuits. As new technologies like DeepSeek emerge, concerns about data storage and privacy in China are growing, urging caution for businesses integrating such tools.
