Governing AI Deployment: The Lay of the Land

Whatever was built, bought or customised, every organisation deploys AI as the final step before use. Deployment is the transition from a development and testing environment to a real-world, operational setting, and monitoring afterwards is a continuous commitment, not a one-time effort.

  • Who developed it? AI the organisation developed itself or AI acquired from a vendor.
  • Is it customisable? Customised for the organisation's use or completely off-the-shelf with no fine-tuning option.
  • Who will use it? Customer or external-facing use, or internal employee use only.
