What Happens When AI Agents Make Contracts? Bridget McCormack on LCP


Listen Later

What happens when AI agents start making contracts with other AI agents?

In this episode, Jen Leonard and Bridget McCormack explore Legal Context Protocol, or LCP, a new open protocol designed to help legal terms become discoverable, verifiable, and connected to agentic transactions. Bridget explains why existing e-commerce legal infrastructure may not translate cleanly to a world where machines negotiate, accept terms, and complete transactions on behalf of people and businesses.

In this episode:

  • What Legal Context Protocol is designed to solve
  • Why agentic commerce creates new contract and ratification issues
  • How legal terms can become discoverable, verifiable, and connected to transactions
  • Why AI risk and legal-context risk should be separated
  • What general counsel and law firm partners should do now
