Before You Buy an AI Agent, Ask This

​AI agents are moving into small businesses faster than the guardrails are. A third of organisations already use agentic AI in some form, but only one in five have anything resembling mature governance for it. This talk cuts through the hype to give SME owners a practical way to think about agent risk: what makes an "agent" different from a chatbot, who's actually liable when it gets something wrong, and the handful of questions worth asking any AI vendor before you sign up. No jargon, no fear-mongering. Just what you need to adopt AI agents with your eyes open.
