Tech Talk: Financially Quantifying and Benchmarking AI Risk
Speaker: Josh Bottum (Indemnify AI)
Abstract: > AI risk is real. Just look at the billions in settlements already tracked on Bleederboard.ai. Expanding into physical AI offers breakout success potential but is laden with catastrophic risk. Today, most business cases contain material and unaccounted AI risk liability. Development and finance teams can no longer ignore it.
To lead in the AI transition, CFOs must quantify AI liabilities and reflect them on the balance sheet. This introduction will examine notable AI failures and how to easily follow emerging cases. It will review AI risk financial quantification and how this approach delivers shared, data-driven decisions between finance and development teams.
