Description
<p>AI governance has moved from the periphery of the agenda to the centre of it. The problem is, too many organizations are approaching it wrong.</p>
<p>In this episode of Decision Loop, Christine Babington speaks with Olivia Gambelin, AI ethicist, founder of Ethical Intelligence, and author of Responsible AI, about why governance frameworks break down from the inside out.</p>
<p>Olivia draws on her years of experience advising Fortune 500 companies and shaping AI policy in Brussels to make the case that people are consistently overlooked within AI implementation, how internal politics corrodes even the most thorough governance plans, and why AI governance is not the blocker to innovation that some claim it is.</p>
<p>The conversation covers agentic AI and explainability, and the essential questions every leadership team should ask before committing to an AI transformation. Olivia sets out a clear, honest guide to building accountability structures that hold.</p>
<p>If you are leading AI adoption in complex operational environments, this episode is worth your time.</p>
