Definition
What Is AI Governance?
AI governance is the system of policies, controls, and oversight mechanisms that ensure AI operates safely, reliably, and in compliance with legal and ethical obligations. Think of it as the operating system for responsible AI deployment — it doesn't restrict what AI can do, it ensures what AI does is visible, accountable, and defensible.
Three Core Questions
AI Self-Assessment:
Who?
Has access to AI systems, data, and outputs — and are they accountable for how they use them?
What?
Is the AI doing? Are its outputs compliant, accurate, and within approved policy boundaries?
How?
Do we prove it? Can we audit, evidence, and report AI behavior to regulators and the board?
