In an effort to provide users’ rights with better protection, the European Commission is tightening the AI Liability Directive. by inno_brew

I’m not sure that legal liability actually does as much (at least now), especially compared to reputational effects. Like most of these are going to presumably be produced by slimly capitalized corporate entities that would declare bankruptcy if any significant litigation occurred, no?

I think reputation and public response expectations are actually more meaningful and direct and affect decisions a bit better, maybe because it’s more intuitive?
