SUMMARY:Governing AI with Confidence: Responsible AI and Audit-Ready Controls
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nThe rapid adoption of artificial intelligence is transforming how organizations operate\, innovate\, and compete but it also introduces significant and evolving risk. As AI becomes embedded across business processes\, many organizations are shifting from experimental use cases to enterprise-wide deployment with no clearly defined governance model\, inconsistent risk management approach\, nor a mature controls framework. Gaps in AI governance\, ineffective risk profiling of emerging initiatives\, data security and privacy concerns\, and a lack of urgency to adapt to an evolving regulatory and control landscape can expose organizations to financial\, regulatory\, and reputational harm. \n\n\n\nTo navigate these challenges\, organizations must move beyond ad hoc controls and establish resilient\, enterprise-wide Responsible AI programs grounded in strong governance\, accountability\, and continuous monitoring. These strategies must be comprehensive enough to integrate across business functions and address risks beyond cybersecurity alone. Internal Audit plays a critical independent role in assessing the design and effectiveness of Responsible AI strategies\, informing executive leadership\, the audit committee\, and the board on AI risk readiness today – while helping organizations anticipate and prepare for the risks of tomorrow. \n\n\n\nWebcast details\n\n\n\nDate and time \n\n\n\nTuesday\, March 31\, 20261:00 PM ET – 2:00 PM ET \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE credits \n\n\n\n1 \n\n\n\nLearning objectives \n\n\n\n\nIdentify key AI regulatory requirements and frameworks and evaluate their applicability to an organization based on its vision\, strategy and objectives \n\n\n\nSummarize the principles of responsible AI and explain the risks that are associated with AI systems\n\n\n\nDescribe the practical steps to identify\, evaluate\, and mitigate risks throughout the AI ideation\, development and deployment process.\n\n\n\nIdentify Internal Audit’s role in preparing for AI focused audits with inclusion of leading practices\n\n\n\nDescribe how to build an impactful audit approach for trending topics in AI and Governance
