Her message is clear: done well, AI governance is not a brake on innovation, it is the accelerator.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">For leaders across Australia and New Zealand, that matters now. In many organisations, AI is moving at startup speed while governance is moving at committee speed. <\/span><\/span>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ey.com\/content\/dam\/ey-unified-site\/ey-com\/en-gl\/insights\/ai\/documents\/ey-gl-ai-sentiment-study-wave-04-2026.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">EY research<\/a>, <span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">nearly all organisations are at least in the process of integrating and scaling AI, yet only around a third have responsible controls in place.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Here are five takeaways on turning AI governance into a source of trust, resilience and advantage:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>1. Boards have moved from excitement to accountability<\/b><b>\u00a0<\/b><b><\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Not long ago, many boardroom conversations about AI centred on speed: how quickly it could be deployed, where it could drive productivity and how it could create competitive advantage.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Those questions still matter. But, as Ehrmann observed, the conversation has become more sophisticated. Boards are now asking a sharper version of the same question: how fast can we deploy AI without ending up on the front page of the Wall Street Journal?<\/span><\/span><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That shift makes sense. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cAI has moved from being a cool technology experiment to something that can materially impact revenue, reputation, intellectual property, regulatory exposure, but also customer trust,\u201d Ehrmann said.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That is a significant shift. AI is no longer a technology discussion alone. It is a governance, legal, cybersecurity, reputational and business continuity discussion all at once. For leaders, that means AI governance must be elevated beyond a specialist function and treated as a boardroom priority.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>2. Good governance is the accelerator, not the brake\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">One of the strongest ideas from the conversation is also one of the most important for organisations trying to balance ambition with accountability: governance does not have to slow innovation down.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cGood governance is really becoming the accelerator pedal, not the brake pedal,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">It is a powerful reframing. Too often, governance is treated as something that arrives after innovation: a checkpoint, a hurdle or a process to be navigated once the exciting work is done. With AI, that approach creates risk. If governance lags too far behind deployment, organisations can quickly lose visibility over where AI is being used, what data it is touching, who is validating outputs and who is accountable when something goes wrong.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Governance, when designed well, creates clarity. It gives teams the confidence to innovate within clear boundaries and helps make AI adoption sustainable. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">As Ehrmann put it, \u201cThe companies that build trust the fastest are often the ones that innovate also the fastest in the long run.\u201d<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>3. AI risk is as much about people as it is about models\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">When organisations talk about AI risk, it is natural to focus on the technology itself: the model, the data, the outputs and the architecture. But Ehrmann was clear that the bigger risk often sits somewhere more familiar.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cMost executives are realising now that the biggest AI risk usually isn\u2019t the model itself, it\u2019s the human behaviour around the model,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That human risk factor is already playing out in practical ways. Employees may paste sensitive information into public AI tools, trust AI-generated outputs too quickly, or move faster than the organisation\u2019s guardrails allow. For many organisations, AI adoption does not start with a formal strategy. It starts with employees opening a browser tab.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That is why Ehrmann describes the task as giving people \u201cfreedom within boundaries\u201d. Organisations need to give teams room to explore AI and unlock value, while being clear about the limits. That requires policies, education, oversight, data controls and clear accountability for AI risk.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>4. Responsible AI is operational discipline, not AI theatre\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">There is no shortage of AI strategy decks, transformation slogans or executive panels. But as organisations move from experimentation to scale, Ehrmann suggested it becomes easier to distinguish responsible AI from what she called \u201cAI theatre\u201d.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cYou can usually spot the difference within the first 15 minutes of a conversation,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you ask a very simple question on who owns AI risk here, suddenly the room gets quiet.\u201d<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That question matters because responsible AI must show up in the way an organisation operates. Can leaders say where AI is being used? Do they know what data is involved? Is there a human in the loop validating outputs? Are policies in place? What happens if AI gets something wrong?<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cAI governance shows up in operational discipline, not in PowerPoint slides,\u201d Ehrmann said.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Governance claims are easy to make. Proving them is harder. That is where external certification becomes valuable, not as a marketing exercise, but as a discipline that forces organisations to codify, measure and defend their practices against an independent standard. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">At 麻豆原创, we were among the first large enterprises to achieve ISO 42001 certification for AI governance in Q3 2025, reflecting the company\u2019s focus on building trust with customers and helping them adopt AI with confidence.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The broader point for business leaders is clear: responsible AI is not a branding exercise. It is an operational capability.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>5. Trust is becoming a competitive advantage\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">As AI becomes more embedded in business processes, customers are asking more sophisticated questions. They want to understand how models reach conclusions, how data is protected, how risks are managed and who is accountable.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">For Ehrmann, that growing demand for transparency is not something to resist. It is part of what trust now requires. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cThe winning ones will be those who have built governance and can move at the speed of innovation, and that is actually creating trust,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">That idea is especially important as AI governance continues to evolve across jurisdictions. Ehrmann pointed to the need for stronger harmonisation and standardisation across the regulatory landscape, so organisations of all sizes can navigate their responsibilities more clearly.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">In the meantime, organisations cannot afford to wait. AI is already moving through the enterprise. The question is whether governance is moving with it.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"paragraph\"><b>Moving from AI experimentation to responsible AI at scale\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The pressure to use AI is real. Customers expect faster, smarter experiences, while employees and competitors are moving quickly.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">But speed alone is not enough. As Ehrmann put it, innovation gets applause, but good governance keeps you in business.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">For organisations across Australia and New Zealand, AI governance is becoming the foundation for trusted innovation: giving people freedom to explore while protecting customers, data, reputation and trust.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><span class=\"normaltextrun\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Listen to the full podcast to hear more from 麻豆原创\u2019s Marielle Ehrmann on governing AI with confidence.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"eop\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Marielle Ehrmann, Chief Security Compliance and Risk Officer, 麻豆原创 As AI adoption accelerates, leaders face urgent questions: where is AI being used, what data&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4942,"featured_media":7834,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[5565468,5560233],"tags":[5565238,5561586],"sapn-display":[5565403],"sapn-type":[5560547],"class_list":["post-7831","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ai","category-cloud","tag-cloud-security","tag-cyber-security","sapn-display-feature-hero","sapn-type-feature"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.8 (Yoast SEO v27.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Five takeaways on AI governance, trust and innovation - 麻豆原创 Australia &amp;
