Large Liability Models? Emerging Tort and Privacy Risks in Chatbots and Generative AI
Webinar | 07.01.26, 1:00 PM PDT - 2:00 PM PDT
As AI moves from novelty to necessity, the legal landscape is shifting under the weight of unprecedented liability and safety concerns. Join our Crowell & Moring partners for a webinar exploring AI liability, focusing on chatbots and generative AI, recent rulings on product liability in the digital realm, and new laws. This session will provide high-level legal strategies to manage risk and liability across AI applications, including white-label chatbots, virtual assistants, synthetic media, and employment tools.
Learning Objectives:
- Evaluate emerging liability frameworks that treat AI tools as products, drawing parallels to historic mass tort litigation for failure-to-warn.
- Identify high-risk chatbot and virtual assistant behaviors that may lead to mental health litigation, including under state laws (such as California's SB 243)
- Navigate the White House’s Proposed AI National Policy Framework (March 2026) and the TRUMP AMERICA AI Act (March 2026), specifically their provisions for federal preemption of state laws and new product liability standards.
- Implement strategies to mitigate risks of non-consensual deepfakes and deceptive “AI-washing” in corporate marketing.
