In highly regulated industries like healthcare and energy, a lot is at stake if an AI system “fails” – therefore leading to a higher risk of unintended consequences that could mean life or death. These high-risk environments can teach us a lot about responsible AI, practical guardrails, and best practices overall. One of those lessons? Make AI “boring”. To dive into what that means for highly regulated industries and beyond, we’re joined by Cal Al-Dhubaib. Cal is the Head of AI and Data Science at Further and founder of Pandata (which was acquired by Further in 2024). Cal is on a mission to make “boring” AI a mainstream trend. In this episode, Cal discusses the critical aspects of AI deployment, emphasizing the importance of decision-making endpoints and explainable AI. Cal frames governance as an enabler of innovation: “Cars can go faster with breaks.”
