Engaging the Board in AI Governance
📖This article originally appeared in the Spring edition of Impact magazine.
Artificial Intelligence has dramatically impacted how we work, live, and conduct business. So significant is this impact that Amith Nagarajan, Chairman of Blue Cypress and author of Ascend: Unlocking the Power of AI for Associations, describes it thus: “Not since the advent of flight have we encountered an innovative change as far-reaching in its potential as AI. [AI is] like going from a horse and buggy all the way directly to supersonic flight and beyond.1 ” And, of course, that impact is only going to grow as time passes. So, it is incumbent upon association executives to engage boards in a dialogue about this consequential issue and develop an approach to the governance of AI within our organizations.
