Oxford Martin School in the University of Oxford, Touro University, Institute of Law & AI, Aioi R&D Lab - Oxford, and Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance Co. Ltd. has published the report about the risk arizing from the recent rapid expansion of AI technology, and the impact and the opportunity of the insurance industry.

This report examines the implications of recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI) for liability regimes and insurance markets within the United States. The report advocates for targeted reforms in liability laws, proposing a nuanced approach that may ease regulations for demonstrably- safer technologies, such as future autonomous vehicles, whilst strengthening oversight for AI agents and cyber risks. Key recommendations include implementing strict liability regimes for a subset of AI harms, mandating insurance coverage for certain AI applications, and expanding punitive damages to address catastrophic, uninsurable risks. These proposed changes would significantly impact the insurance sector, necessitating the development of new actuarial methodologies to quantify complex AI- related risks and to potentially underwrite a broader range of liabilities.
