This episode delivers a comprehensive analysis of the escalating legal liability risks created by Generative AI, stressing that engineering choices are fundamentally legal decisions. We contrast two primary AI architectures, Fine-Tuning and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), arguing that one internalizes opaque, catastrophic risk (copyright, privacy) while the other externalizes traceable, operational risk (defamation, market substitution).
Learn about emerging legal doctrines, including the shift to classifying AI as a "product" subject to strict product liability and the existential threat of algorithmic disgorgement—an order forcing companies to destroy their core models.
Ultimately, we frame the current LLM governance debates as essential training for the future control of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), concluding that the auditable RAG model represents a superior, provable path for future governance compared to the opaque fine-tuning approach.
