This episode of the Technology Risk Podcast we explore the hidden dangers of trusting AI systems without truly understanding how they work. As AI tools become more embedded in critical business decisions, many leaders are relying on outputs they don’t fully comprehend—opening the door to costly mistakes, regulatory violations, and reputational fallout. We unpack the risks of opaque AI models, data misuse, and hallucinated outputs, and share real-world examples of both success and failure. Most importantly, we offer practical strategies to build transparency and accountability into your AI practices, from explainable AI technologies to robust governance frameworks. If your business is adopting AI—or already depends on it—this episode is your guide to ensuring it doesn’t become a liability.
