ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Most companies wrote their AI policy before they had any idea how much AI they were running.
Writing the policy is the easy part. The AI it governs is mostly invisible: shadow models, AI features inside SaaS tools, employees pasting company data into public generative tools. You cannot govern what you cannot see. Discovery comes first, and it never stops.

A model can be 95 percent accurate and systematically unfair to the people who matter most. The aggregate number hides it.
Treated as a late-stage checklist item, bias gets discovered too late to fix, rationalized away under deployment pressure, or missed entirely. A single accuracy number is not a…
Generative AI is most dangerous at the exact moment it is most convincing.
It fails fluently. It produces a confident, polished, authoritative falsehood with no signal that it is wrong, leaks whatever an employee feeds it, and varies its output from one run to the next. Govern the real failure mode…
For fifty years, the rule was simple: garbage in, garbage out. Bad data produced output that obviously looked bad, so someone caught it and fixed it. AI broke that bargain. Feed a copilot flawed data and it returns a fluent, confident, well-structured answer that happens to be wrong, and nothing on…
The moment a real decision can be blamed on a model, you have built a machine for laundering accountability.
A model makes a consequential decision and no human owns it. The data scientist points to the business, the business points to the model, the sponsor treats the output as objective. Everyone…
