Businesses rely on AI for everything from streamlining communication to managing hiring and forecasting trends. It’s fast, efficient, and deeply embedded in daily operations. But as AI becomes more common, one critical piece is often overlooked: compliance.

In this episode, Jara Rowe sits down with Dr. Marwan Omar, Chief AI Officer at Insight Assurance, to talk about the growing need for AI compliance. They explore what it really means, why it’s not just a concern for tech giants, and how overlooking it could expose your business to legal, ethical, and reputational risks.

Key takeaways:

• What makes AI compliance different from traditional IT compliance
• Where to start with AI risk assessments
• How real companies have gotten AI compliance wrong
