    The AI Governance Gap: 14 Companies, One Blind Spot | Ethical Intelligence Ep. 7

    I found errors in my own Episode 7. So I did the thing I stand in front of boardrooms and tell them to do: I stopped, I went back to the source filings, and I corrected the record. Call it my own Human Intervention Rate ticking up in real time. Here's the irony I'm not going to pretend away. I build content with AI in the loop, and AI-speed confidence is seductive — fluent, fast, and perfectly happy to hand you a clean sentence that happens to be wrong. My whole thesis is that the human in the loop can't be ceremony. Episode 7 turned into a live test of whether I actually believe that. Turns out I do. For the public record, three corrections: 𝟭. "𝗡𝗼 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲" 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗯𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁. Several companies I referenced do name a board committee with AI in scope — Centene, for one, names its Audit and Compliance Committee in its own 10-K. The precise (and stronger) critique was never "no oversight." It's the gap between naming a committee and being able to show an attestable control: a metric, a model inventory, a named framework, dated evidence. 𝟮. 𝗟𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗱. Anywhere I referenced active cases, I've made it explicit — these are claims on the public docket being tested in court. Not findings. Not proof that any company's AI caused harm. 𝟯. 𝗜 𝗸𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗲. It files a 10-K but no proxy, which means my own test literally can't be run on it. I left that in, out loud, instead of quietly dropping the inconvenient one. None of this softens the point. It sharpens it. The gap between disclosed risk and attestable control is real, and it's exactly where the exposure lives. But if I'm going to hold companies to their own filings, I'd better hold myself to mine. My co-host Aura spends the whole episode insisting human sign-off is "just ceremony." The joke lands on both of us: catching these errors was the ceremony — working exactly as designed. Revised Episode 7 is live 👉 https://youtu.be/SH5Loh35E8s If you run AI-assisted anything — and you do — here's the free diagnostic: when your machine hands you something confident, who checks it before it ships? If the honest answer is "nobody," that isn't efficiency. That's the blind spot. The human intervention isn't the slow part. It's the whole job. 💬 So tell me: what's the last thing your AI handed you, confidently, that turned out to be wrong? Drop it in the comments — the good ones are worth more than any case study. If this made you rethink who's holding the pen on your team, follow for more, and share it with the one person who needs to see it before their next deploy.

    The 0% Fallacy: Why a Green AI Dashboard Is Dangerous | AI Governance | Patrick Boogaerts

    What happens when human oversight of an automated process hits zero? On routine tasks, that's the goal.
