## Resource

In this episode of Legally Agile, host Chris Werner, a seasoned business attorney and advisor, delves into the critical distinction between AI policies and AI governance models. Chris emphasizes that while many companies have established AI policies, these alone are insufficient without a robust governance model. He discusses the pitfalls of relying solely on static policies and highlights the necessity of a dynamic governance framework that adapts to the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Chris identifies common gaps in AI governance, such as employee use, vendor control, and accountability, and provides actionable insights on how to bridge these gaps. He also outlines the components of an effective governance model, including clear use policies, review paths for high-risk cases, and defined ownership. This episode is essential for businesses seeking to leverage AI tools efficiently while minimizing risks, offering listeners a strategic advantage in navigating AI adoption.
