Barclay Damon Live: Cyber Sip—"The AI Vendor Contract Trap: What Businesses Miss Before Signing, Part 1"

In this episode, Kevin Szczepanski discusses the potential harms to businesses when they rush into AI vendor agreements without careful contract review. Kevin explains that while AI, biometric, and automation tools can improve efficiency and competitiveness, related contracts often shift major legal, cybersecurity, and financial risks onto the customer. He highlights key provisions to negotiate, including a clear scope of work, specific cybersecurity obligations, rules on data use and model training, indemnification, adequate insurance, and protection against auto-renewal. Listen in for straight talk about negotiating balanced, enforceable terms before signing.
