What is the Production-Grade AI Project Portfolio course about?
Without a standardized approach, audit functions react to AI projects ad hoc, leading to inconsistent coverage, missed risk vectors, and strained relationships with engineering and product teams. The lack of a shared prioritization language slows governance and weakens audit influence.
