Why AI Vendor Due Diligence Matters # Selecting an AI vendor isn’t like choosing traditional software. When you deploy a third-party AI system, you’re not just buying a product, you’re inheriting its biases, its security vulnerabilities, its training data decisions, and potentially its legal liabilities.
Why AI Governance Policies Matter # Every organization using AI needs a governance framework. Without one, AI deployment decisions happen ad hoc, different teams use different standards, risks go unassessed, and accountability is unclear.
As AI systems become integral to commerce, healthcare, and daily life, jurisdictions worldwide are racing to establish regulatory frameworks. The approaches vary dramatically, from the EU’s comprehensive risk-based legislation to the UK’s sector-specific principles, from China’s content-focused rules to Canada’s failed attempt at comprehensive AI law. Understanding these frameworks is essential for any organization deploying AI across borders.
