What does artificial intelligence change about software contracting—and what stays the same?
David Tollen, founder of Tech Contracts Academy® and author of The Tech Contracts Handbook, recently joined Philip Ideson on the Art of Procurement podcast to discuss the evolving challenges of contracting for AI.
In the episode, “AI in Your Contracts: You Still Own the Risk,” David explores how traditional SaaS contracting principles apply to AI, along with new risks and considerations, including:
- Suppliers’ use of customer data for AI model training.
- Intellectual property risks associated with AI-generated outputs.
- Responsibility and accountability for AI-driven decisions.
- Contract provisions buyers should review when adopting AI features or renewing software agreements.
David also discusses why careful contract negotiation remains essential to identifying and resolving potential disputes before they arise.
