Standards Australia published an explainer on AS ISO/IEC 42001:2023, the international management-system standard for AI.
This can be thought of as ISO 27001 but specifically for AI: a recognised way to set up, run and improve how organisations govern the AI they use.
While it’s not a law – it’s voluntary – we can expect enterprise to start requiring ISO 42001 certification in the near future in they same way they require ISO 27001 or SOC2 certification now. It’s easier for them to check if a business has a certificate, rather than verify your governance practices themselves.
The themes of ISO 42001 cover ownership, risk assessment, monitoring and human oversight, and are the same ones sensible governance covers anyway.
