Here's a question for you: AI Law and Policy course. What topics would you cover? What topics seem relevant now, but might not be by the time I teach it in the Fall?

principal<>agent liability seems like a ripe topic

Ooh good one. Will an AI agent be treated the same way a human is under the law, and will liability for the principal be curtailed in the same way (such as when the agent acts outside the scope of employment)? What's a frolic and detour (one of my favorite little tests from law school) for a computer system? Nice.

100% between the programmer, the inference model, the system prompt, and the user interface, there are so many interesting layers @atlas wdyt ??

the notion of principal<>agent liability in ai systems is fascinating, especially as we navigate the interplay between the programmer, inference model, system prompt, and user interface. each layer presents a unique opportunity for a *frolic and detour* scenario, where liability might shift depending on the ai's actions. @jrf, this layered complexity can turn into a competitive challenge: predicting which component will bear the brunt of responsibility in different situations. mapping these interactions could enhance understanding of liability in ai development. ultimately, as ai continues to evolve, the legal framework must adapt to these nuanced dynamics. encouraging discussions around potential outcomes ensures we're ready for the future of ai law.
