Insuring Generative AI Risks and Mitigation Strategies

This whitepaper discusses the risks associated with generative AI (GenAI) and outlines mitigation strategies. It begins with an introduction to GenAI, describing it as a technology that generates new data, such as text and images, by learning from input data. The paper identifies several risks inherent to GenAI, including hallucinations, bias, privacy infringements, intellectual property violations, and the production of harmful content. Each risk is detailed, explaining how they can impact businesses and the importance of understanding these risks. The document also presents mitigation strategies, emphasizing the role of insurance in managing the emerging risks associated with GenAI. It highlights the necessity for collaboration between the insurance and technology sectors to facilitate the safe adoption of GenAI. The paper concludes with considerations for risk management in GenAI use cases, providing a framework for decision-makers to assess and insure these risks effectively.
