The work AI boom is outrunning oversight
"Competitive FOMO is real. There is pressure pushing companies to move fast and show results from AI. The urgency to deploy has outpaced the urgency to create guardrails, to govern, to be compliant."
"Organizations with fully integrated AI are nearly four times more likely to report revenue growth than those still piloting - 58% versus 15%. Companies that don't implement controls, security and documentation for their AI are in for a rude awakening."
"It's time for companies deploying AI to get serious about governance, auditing and constant testing, especially with agentic AI on the rise. Companies that wait for an incident to invest risk falling behind."
The rise of agentic AI necessitates company-specific rules to ensure safe operation aligned with business values. A survey reveals that 80% of executives believe their companies would fail an AI governance audit. Only 7% of organizations piloting AI are confident in passing an independent audit within 90 days, while 74% of those with fully integrated AI feel secure. Companies lacking governance and risk oversight face significant performance risks. Urgent action is required to establish AI governance before deploying agentic AI to avoid falling behind competitors.
