AI Governance Explained 

IBM's Kush Varshney, Distinguished Research Scientist and Senior Manager, explains the origins of the phrase 'AI governance' and how IBM is adapting its Trust 360 toolkits for the age of generative AI. Generative AI may have eclipsed big data as a buzzword, but many of the core issues —fairness, trust, and transparency — remain. Varshney and his team are now designing complementary tools to address the unique threats posed by large language models (LLMs) and other content-generating foundation models.
