Episode Summary: In this episode, Maribel Lopez discusses responsible AI governance with Credo AI’s Head of Product Susannah Shattuck. Susannah builds AI governance tools that help organizations design, develop, and deploy ethical AI at scale. She has been working in Machine Learning Operations and AI governance for the last five years; her passion for AI governance can be traced back to her days on the IBM Watson implementations team, where she saw firsthand all of the things that can go wrong during the ML development lifecycle. Maribel and Susannah discuss the difference between responsible AI strategy and AI governance, the EU AI Act, and how she helps teams build governance plans that work for them.

Key Themes: Maribel and Susannah begin their conversation by discussing the risks of generative AI. Large language models have overlapping risks with older models such as algorithmic biases, but they also come with new risks such as hallucinations, privacy risks, and security risks.
Many companies want to implement AI, but those same companies recognize that they are not prepared for its risks. Susannah helps teams create AI governance plans that protect against risks without holding them back. She notes that it is not possible or practical to eliminate all risks, and that part of building a good strategy is allowing for low-risk use cases.
Later in the conversation, Maribel and Susannah dive into how Credo AI works with organizations to implement responsible governance. They also discuss the EU AI Act, which will shape AI governance in the years to come. Last, Susannah shares her predictions for the future of AI implementation and AI governance.
