Governing Emerging Technologies

AI and automated decision systems challenge traditional governance because they span every domain at once.

Emerging technologies challenge traditional governance structures because they operate across multiple domains simultaneously.

Artificial intelligence systems rely on enterprise data, operate on technology platforms, influence operational decisions, introduce regulatory obligations, and affect customer data and individual rights.

Most governance programs were not designed for systems that span all these domains at once.


Governance Questions Created by AI

Organizations must address questions such as:

01

How training data sets are governed across enterprise environments

02

Who is accountable for automated decision outcomes

03

How security and privacy controls apply to AI systems

04

How regulatory expectations apply to algorithmic decision making

05

How customer rights are protected when decisions are automated


Effective oversight of emerging technologies requires governance structures designed at the architectural level.
