Study Ranks AI Models on Compliance Tasks
We’re back to artificial intelligence today, with fresh research on how well various AI models perform at tasks that compliance teams encounter on a daily basis. The bottom line: yes, just about all AI models are generally good at lots of compliance work, but integrating AI into compliance workstreams is still going to be a…
Read MoreKeeping Humans in the AI Loop
I spent this week in Lithuania attending a conference for compliance officers in Eastern Europe, and this being Europe, of course that meant artificial intelligence and data privacy were all over the agenda. So it’s rather poetic that European regulators also just published fresh guidance on human oversight of automated decision-making systems. The guidance was…
Read MoreAI and Policy Chatbots, Part II
Today I want to return to the idea of using an AI-driven chatbot as a compliance policy adviser for employees. On one hand, the potential gains for your compliance program are clear; but are we miscalculating some of the potential risks that AI chatbots might bring to your program too? This particular bee crept into…
Read MoreAI Chatbots and Policy Management
Compliance officers talk all the time about how artificial intelligence has the potential to transform the programs you run. Today I want to unpack an example of how that might work, courtesy of a case-study I saw last week involving AI and policy management. The company in question is a global IT services firm (23,000…
Read MoreNotes on Future of SOX Compliance
This week I’m attending the annual user conference for Workiva, maker of software for internal audit and GRC teams. This means, of course, that artificial intelligence is all over the agenda and everyone is talking about how AI will transform internal control and SOX compliance. Let’s review the notes I took. One point that came…
Read MoreWhat If Your AI ROI Fails?
We interrupt everyone’s ceaseless march into an AI-enhanced future to note a recent study which found that using artificial intelligence actually slowed down the performance of experienced software developers rather than enhanced it. For corporations itching to roll out AI tools at scale, these findings raise several questions worth pondering. The study itself comes from…
Read MoreMore Notes on the Compliance AI Freakout
Navex released its annual State of Risk & Compliance Report the other week, and I’ve been looking through the findings for insights into what’s on compliance officers’ minds these days. One issue that stood out: how compliance teams are handling artificial intelligence. We should dwell on this because, as just about every compliance officer already…
Read MoreGoverning Third-Party AI Risks
Earlier this week I attended a GRC conference in New York, York, which meant plenty of talk about challenges in cybersecurity, data management, internal control, and (of course) artificial intelligence. One interesting session explored how to manage the risks of third-party AI models within your enterprise. As usual, I took lots of notes, and pass…
Read MoreMore on AI Agents Taking Employee Training
Today I want to continue pulling on the thread we first uncovered last week, that ChatGPT’s latest artificial intelligence system is so advanced that employees can have it take their ethics and compliance training for them. We still have lots of implications both short- and long-term that compliance officers need to consider. For those who…
Read MoreUsing AI Agents to Cheat on Training
Well here’s something compliance officers need like a hole in the head: ChatGPT’s newest incarnation includes an “agent mode” so advanced that apparently employees can use it to complete their ethics and compliance training for them, with compliance officers none the wiser. Lovely. This irritating advance in artificial intelligence came to my attention courtesy of…
