AI Governance for Australian SMEs: A Practical Starting Point
Australian SMEs do not need an enterprise-scale AI governance department to start using AI responsibly. But existing laws still apply, government guidance is becoming more developed, and organisations need a practical way to decide what AI use is appropriate.
Approving an AI Tool Is Not Enough. Govern How It Is Used.
An approved AI system can support both low-risk everyday work and highly consequential activities. Effective AI governance therefore needs to consider not only which technology is approved, but what people are doing with it, what information is involved and what authority the AI has been given.
