Questions:

• Agentic AI and AI agents, with its promise of autonomous decision-making and learning capabilities, presents a unique set of risks across various domains. What are some of the key areas of concern for you?
• What frameworks are most relevant to the deployment of agentic AI, and where are the potential gaps? 
• What are you seeing in terms of how regulatory frameworks may need to be adapted to address the unique challenges posed by agentic AI?
• How about legal aspects - does traditional tort law or product liability apply?
• How does the autonomous nature of agentic AI challenge established legal concepts of liability and responsibility?
• The other related topic is knowing what agents “think” on the inside. So what are the key legal considerations for managing transparency and explainability in agentic AI decision-making?
