AI Enablement playbook/Module 10 · Future-proofing

Day 97 / 100 · Future-proofing · AI at board level

Oversight, not operations.

Under King V, as under King IV before it, governing data, information and technology is a board responsibility. AI is now firmly part of that.

Questions boards should ask

Five Questions

  • Where are we using AI, and why?
  • What's our appetite for AI risk?
  • Who owns it, by name?
  • What went wrong, and what did we learn?
  • Is it delivering the value promised?

What to report

Quarterly

  • The AI inventory and risk tiers
  • The five dashboard numbers
  • Incidents and near misses
  • POPIA compliance status
  • Roadmap progress
