Your Vendor’s AI Can Create Liability For You

We sit down with technology transactions attorney Pooja Teckchandani to get practical about AI risk for entrepreneurs who are moving fast and shipping products. We break down what “AI” actually means, where liability can hide in vendor terms, and how to ask better questions before a launch turns into a fire drill. • What a technology transactions lawyer does day to day inside a large company • Career lessons from being the first and only in house lawyer at a fast growing brand • The difference between automation, generative AI, and agentic AI • Where AI shows up in real products and back office operations • Why LLM providers can function like subcontractors and what that changes • Data retention, deletion, and security posture questions to ask vendors • How “improvement” language can become a training loophole • Why AI compliance is often state by state and how to track legal updates • Risk decisions when building agents and who owns output responsibility You can go on to my website, which is tech-law.com, or you can find me on LinkedIn.
