AI is becoming a new “peril” for the enterprise (like a fire or flood), except it can trigger losses across privacy, cybercrime, business interruption, media liability, and even professional liability. So here’s the real question: can AI risk actually be insured? What happens when it isn’t?
In this episode of Today in Tech, host Keith Shaw sits down with Josh Motta, co-founder and CEO of Coalition, to break down what “AI insurance” really means today, why cyber insurance is the closest thing most companies have, and where coverage gaps are already showing up (including professional liability exclusions and AI-driven mishaps that may not be covered at all).
You’ll learn:
* What kinds of AI incidents may already be covered under cyber, E&O, or other policies
* Where insurers are starting to add exclusions—and why
* How deepfakes and AI-powered fraud are changing real-world claims
* Why legal exposure and privacy enforcement may be the sleeper risk in 2026
* The key questions CIOs, CISOs, and CFOs should ask before an AI incident becomes a financial crisis
