🤷‍♂️ What’s Going On and Why It Matters:

Welp.

That was a lot to take in, huh?

John didn’t hold back in his advice.

From risk mitigation and intellectual property to ethical frameworks and practical implementation, John perfectly dished out AI governance 101 like a fine Italian restaurant dishes out homemade rigatoni: deliciously spot on.

Here’s what we learned: there’s a lot of learning companies need to do. Without much regulation or legal guardrails, company executives and department leaders need to proactively set their own guidelines.

So, sometimes companies gotta saddle up and create their own governance.

🦾How You Can Leverage:

So there’s a lot to take on for any company looking to properly incorporate AI.

Laws, rules, regulations, best practices, yada yada yada.

Kinda like living in the Wild West, we’ve gotta make our own AI rules for now. But luckily, John laid out a roadmap for companies confused with how to get started.

1 – Define the audience 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Before we dig too deep in the trenches, we’ve gotta hit rewind. Should you even be using AI? You shouldn’t ride the wave just to say you’re a surfer.

Try this: 
Include employees and maybe even customers to see if AI has a place at your table. Could your marketing team benefit from ChatGPT? Will customers feel served if you’re using AI imagery? Ask them all.

2 – Create a roadmap 📍

John was big on creating an AI governance roadmap, and we’re all about that life. Like any good roadmap, an AI governance roadmap should have an end destination, where you currently are, and the plan on how you’ll travel.

Try this: 
Identify at least 3 specific outputs that you hope AI can augment. More leads for your company? Higher customer service scores? Increased online revenue? Start with the end goal, then build well-defined roads and guardrails that your team and customers are on board with.

3 – Stay up-to-date 📆

What’s the problem with creating governance in the Wild West of AI? Well…. It’s wild. AI is like a blockbuster movie franchise, always evolving and introducing new twists.

Try this: 
Any progress you take on Steps 1 and 2 above need to be continually readdressed. Legislation and regulation WILL come soon, whether that’s from Big Tech or from lawmakers. You need to build that into your roadmap so you can still thrive in the Wild West.

Now This …

We’re halfway through the week and cookin up something fun.
