SIG’s free AI readiness guide covers key topics around AI governance, risk management, development, and security, to help organizations prepare for AI.
AMSTERDAM, NOORD-HOLLAND, NETHERLANDS, October 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Software Improvement Group (SIG) is proud to announce the release of “AI readiness guide for organizations” with lead author, AI pioneer and expert, Rob van der Veer.
The guide is designed to strategically and practically prepare organizations for AI integration and governance.
Recent studies highlight the urgency of AI readiness on an organizational level: According to Gartner, 60% of CIOs see AI as central to innovation, yet less than half are prepared to manage its risks. Additionally, SIG’s most recent 2023 Benchmark Report revealed serious quality issues in nearly 75% of analyzed AI systems.
To help organizations implement AI more responsibly, SIG decided to create this guide drawing from Rob van der Veer’s three decades of AI experience, SIG’s client collaborations, and SIG’s contributions to global AI standards such as ISO/IEC 5338 and the upcoming official EU AI Act Security Standard.
As a result, the AI readiness guide offers pragmatic guidance for board members, executives, and IT leaders which will be updated regularly as AI develops further.
“We want to equip organizations with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the complexities of AI more responsibly and effectively. Every organization adopts AI in some way or form, but from a leadership perspective; what does this mean for your organization? Are you prepared for it? What do you need to know, and where should you start?” – Rob van der Veer, Lead Author and Senior Principal Expert at Software Improvement Group.
The guide outlines 19 actionable steps tailored to board members, Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) officers, Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs), and Chief Technology Officers (CTOs). It helps organizations to integrate AI responsibly into existing processes, establish AI accountability, treat AI as software, and prepare for AI-related cybersecurity attacks.
“It’s clear that AI offers incredible opportunities, but we can’t ignore the risks that come with it. Without the right governance and security measures, those risks can quickly overshadow the benefits. That’s why it’s so important for organizations to adopt responsible practices and solid frameworks to make the most of AI safely.”– Luc Brandts, CEO of Software Improvement Group.
