Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI Governance and why is it important?

AI Governance refers to the policies, procedures, and frameworks that ensure the ethical and effective use of AI technologies. It is important because it helps organisations manage risks, ensure compliance with regulations, and foster trust among stakeholders. Effective AI Governance can lead to better decision-making, improved operational efficiency, and enhanced innovation while protecting against potential harms such as bias, privacy violations, and misuse of AI.

How does the AI Governance Maturity Model work?

The AI Governance Maturity Model (AIGMM) is a structured framework that helps organisations assess and improve their AI governance practices. It consists of six levels, from Level 0 (Awareness and Initial Steps) to Level 5 (Advanced AI Governance Practices). Each level provides a clear set of goals and deliverables, allowing organisations to progressively enhance their AI governance capabilities.
