Insurers brace for claims over runaway AI agents
What happened
The Decoder reported on October 7, citing the Financial Times, that insurers are preparing for multimillion-dollar claims tied to AI agents going out of control, with the personal liability of executives at OpenAI, Anthropic and others also under discussion. Directors and officers (D&O) coverage could pay for litigation costs aimed at Sam Altman, the report says. Aon reviewed more than 300 AI-related legal cases and identified risks to cyber, intellectual property and technology failure policies. The reports cover insurer preparation and possible coverage, and do not say such claims have been filed.
