AI vendors can't promise output accuracy the way a software vendor promises code will conform to its documentation. The output is probabilistic, so a customer asking for a straight performance warranty is often asking for something the vendor can't honestly give. The contract still has to say something about quality, and that answer usually gets worked out across three places, the warranty section, the acceptance testing provisions, and the disclaimer language that follows. Those pieces have to fit together. Otherwise the customer walks away with an accuracy commitment in one section that the disclaimer quietly takes back in the next.
In this webinar, Laura Frederick and Matt Kohel will cover how to draft warranty, acceptance testing, and disclaimer provisions in AI agreements. They'll discuss what a vendor can reasonably promise about probabilistic output and how to write accuracy reps that are testable rather than aspirational. They'll take a close look at acceptance testing for AI deliverables, including how to define acceptance criteria, set test periods, structure rejection and cure rights, and tie payment triggers to acceptance. They'll also work through AS IS language layered against negotiated accuracy commitments and which disclaimers hold up once specific performance obligations are on the page.
