Every Industry Has a Safety Standard. AI Doesn't. Here's What One Would Look Like.

Reflect w/ Ed Fassio — where AI tells the stories that matter. When a new drug goes to market, it clears a decade of trials. When a bridge gets built, every spec gets certified. When a financial product launches, there are disclosure requirements and audit trails. Every high-stakes system humanity has built has a safety standard. Except AI. A company can buy a model, connect it to their HR workflow, and start making decisions about people's livelihoods with less regulatory oversight than a food truck needs to sell tacos. Julius and Hale lay out what a minimum viable governance baseline actually looks like — five components any organization can implement without a dedicated compliance team. Not the EU AI Act. Not ISO 42001. The Monday morning version. The five: Model Card. Purpose Boundary Document. Audit Trail. Human Checkpoint Map. Incident Response Protocol. Your Move: Pick one AI system your org is currently using that touches a decision about a person. Run the five-component check. Count your yes answers. That's your governance score. Anything below five is a gap worth closing this quarter. — Reflect w/ Ed Fassio | reflectpodcast.com Send us Fan Mail Support the showLISTEN TO MORE EPISODES: https://www.reflectpodcast.com
