Enterprise Architecture Engagement In The Responsible Use Of AI In The Evolving ESG Landscape
Architecture and Governance, Monday, July 1st, 2024
In Part 3 of this research paper, I look at why Enterprise Architecture must be engaged to ensure AI is being designed and deployed responsibly within the business to ensure maximum value with the proper techniques and deployment as well as assuring the organization is meeting its sustainability mandates.
In Part 2 I examined the growing push to quickly harness AI to speed up and scale efforts and find solutions to common challenges across businesses, in education and in society in general. Engaging an architecture competency with your lines of business, as well as at the corporate level, at the start will ensure that business cases answer critical questions on the value and ROI of the AI solution while also aligning to standard technology frameworks and new sustainability measures for regulatory reporting.
Ironically, the involvement of Architecture and the skills brought to bear are no different than the structures and organizational models defined in existing 'modern day' enterprise architecture groups as well as those 'morphed' over time to ensure the appropriate usage and deployment of RPA or migration to modern-day cloud.
