About the Course
Introduction
This CLE webinar will examine how corporate counsel should evaluate, govern, and document enterprise use of agentic AI, including systems that can autonomously execute multi-step actions, access enterprise tools, and rely on third-party extensions or "skills." The panel will use recent OpenClaw and Moltbook storylines as the launch point to a discussion of legal risk across cybersecurity, data security, vendor management, and internal governance, including what happens when agents act faster than humans can supervise and when permissions are broader than intended.
Description
As agentic system adoption accelerates, legal departments are increasingly participants in risk abatement efforts, including authorization boundaries, data handling and access controls, human-review thresholds, auditability and logging, and incident response.
The panel will examine hallucination-driven misrepresentation, fraud, and social engineering pathways that exploit agent workflows and contracting for risk allocation among platform providers, deployers, and enterprise users.
Listen as our panel navigates building defensible governance frameworks and agreements for agentic AI deployment at enterprise scale and preparing for disputes, investigations, and board-level oversight.
