Why AI governance and data privacy must be integrated
A TechTarget piece argues that AI governance and data privacy should not be treated as separate disciplines but as interconnected functions that organizations need to manage together.
Why this matters: Most companies built their privacy programs before AI was doing anything important. Now AI systems are collecting, inferring, and acting on personal data in ways the old privacy rules were never designed to handle. Treating governance and privacy as separate checklists means gaps where neither team owns the problem. When an AI model uses personal data in a way that harms someone, you want a clear answer to who is responsible. Right now, most organizations do not have one.
