AI agents are showing up in commercial contracts faster than the standard liability provisions can keep up with them. When an agent takes an action on behalf of a customer, books a meeting, sends a message, moves money, makes a decision, the question of who is responsible for what the agent did is not always clear. Existing indemnification language was written for a world where software did what it was told. Agents do not always do what they were told, and the contracts attorneys are reviewing today often do not address the gap.
In this mini-course, Anastasia Vener, Yelena Ambartsumian, and Laura Frederick will walk through how to draft and review indemnification provisions for AI agent services. The speakers will cover the practical questions in-house attorneys are running into right now, including how to allocate risk between vendor and customer when the agent acts autonomously, how to handle third-party claims arising from agent actions, and where standard indemnity language falls short when applied to agentic systems. They will also discuss the related provisions that need to be considered alongside indemnification, including limitation of liability, representations about agent behavior, and the customer-side obligations that vendors are starting to push for.
