Beyond human judgment: the role of AI in Australian boardroom decision-making

AI is emerging as a powerful tool in Australian boardrooms but Andrew Amos, Regional Vice President – APAC, Diligent, says it cannot replace human expertise.

In the past two years, AI has transitioned from a technical curiosity to a central topic in the boardroom. Directors across sectors and industries are actively exploring the implications of AI for their businesses and assessing their governance responsibilities.

The reality is clear: AI is not intended to replace boardroom judgment; it’ s designed to enhance it. When paired with human expertise and sound corporate governance, AI can empower directors to make more informed and timely decisions based on real-time risk intelligence.
For Australian organisations, the impact of AI and risk management is not a theoretical debate. The national risk landscape is growing more complex by the day.
