AI governance is the discipline of deciding how an organization is allowed to build, buy, and use artificial intelligence, and proving it does so responsibly. The people in these roles own the AI policy, the risk and impact assessments, the oversight of models in production, and the answer to regulators and the board for what the technology does. It runs on the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act.
This is the core of the field, the umbrella over responsible AI, AI risk, AI compliance, and the rest. If you can stand up and run the governance function that keeps AI accountable, this is the seat that did not exist three years ago and now sits near the top of the org.
