We’re aware that humans can make mistakes and yet corporations can be held liable for employee error. Similar liability should attach when a corporation uses AI as an agent or to carry out tasks formerly handled by a human employee.

Such disclaimers may not always be fully enforceable or effective. Legal frameworks in some jurisdictions (e.g., EU, UK, Switzerland) suggest that AI developers and providers can still be held liable for damages caused by their AI tools, especially if they acted negligently or wilfully, or if the AI system causes harm despite contractual disclaimers. Lliability may extend beyond users to developers and providers, particularly in cases of copyright infringement or product defects. Considering the fact that users are not in the full known extent that when they "accept" the T&C is false representation by the company itself hence in a court of law, the company in the UK or EU is liable to bring to its full extent to any user all the clauses from their T&C. The fsft they do not shifts the blame on them and not the users.
