Organizations embed intelligent systems into finance, operations, compliance, and customer processes. These systems no longer support decisions from the sidelines.

As a result, leaders must address accountability, control, and operational readiness with greater urgency.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The conversation around AI 4.0 often focuses on capability.
