AI governance work is harder than firms expect, compliance leaders warn
Compliance leaders are warning that building AI governance programs inside organizations is proving more difficult and resource-intensive than companies anticipated when they first set out to do it.
Why this matters: Companies are discovering that AI governance is not a checkbox. It takes real people, real processes, and real authority to make it work. That gap between expectation and reality matters because the people most affected by AI decisions, employees, customers, patients, are not in the room when companies underestimate the job. Governance that exists on paper but not in practice is not governance. It is cover.
