Like how in the old days, if you sent a company a contract offer and they accepted it, they would be bound by it. Today, if you send a request to a company's server that they didn't expect and they confirm the contract, they're still later able to renege since you "hacked them" by removing some client-side constraints.
In the same way, I imagine that companies will claim no responsibility for what their AI says, essentially making the experience much worse for consumers. Today, if a customer service rep states something, the company is mostly bound to it. In the future, they'll just claim it was an "AI bug" or a "query injection attack" so they won't honor it.

This has been a key feature of digitization generally, delegate responsibility to a computer and remove the autonomy of the human worker. We all just accept that computers screw up so we don't expect better.
