Frequently asked questions
How do you deploy AI responsibly in production?
You put controls at every stage: define acceptable behaviour, test and red-team before launch, keep a human accountable for high-impact decisions, and monitor and log the system in production. ISO/IEC 42001 sets out an AI management system for exactly this, and the NIST AI RMF maps the risk activities across the lifecycle. The theme is that responsibility is built into the pipeline, not bolted on at the end.
What controls should be in place before an AI system goes live?
At minimum: a documented risk assessment, evaluation against defined safety and fairness criteria, data governance covering what the model was trained and prompted on, human oversight for consequential outputs, and logging so you can audit what happened. These aren't optional extras; they're the core requirements in ISO/IEC 42001 and, for higher-risk systems, in the EU AI Act. Skipping them is where most incidents start.
Who is responsible when an AI system in production causes harm?
The organisation deploying the system is accountable, not the model vendor and not the model itself. UK and EU law attach liability to the people and companies making deployment decisions, which is why documented governance, human oversight and audit trails matter so much. Clear internal ownership, decided before launch, is what lets you answer that question when it's asked.
