How are insurers and regulators addressing the 'black box' problem and potential biases in AI-driven claim decisions? How do ethical and transparency challenges in AI insurance compare to those in sectors like healthcare or education? Could overreliance on AI models in catastrophe prediction lead to unexpected systemic failures during extreme climate events? Are new insurance products like parametric and AI-specific coverage a genuine solution, or do they introduce new forms of risk and complexity?
