Abstract: Measuring and managing the risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly critical as AI systems are integrated into high-stakes decision-making environments, such as healthcare. Algorithmic insurance offers a scalable financial solution for quantifying, pricing, and managing the risks inherent in AI deployment, complementary to regulation. It provides a structured mechanism for transferring the risks associated with AI systems from developers and users to insurers, creating a financial buffer that incentivizes responsible AI use and mitigates liability. Our work formalizes the concept of algorithmic insurance and proposes quantitative frameworks to estimate the risk exposure of insurance contracts for machine-driven financial risk.
