‘Greater capability means more potential for risk’: AI concerns

AI’s evolving role in business poses risks without clear goals and user permissions, warns Dr Karen Sutherland

Sutherland says greater capability can mean greater potential for risk, particularly when AI systems act without clear user permission.

As AI agents become more autonomous, businesses will need to balance innovation with safeguards that keep users and organisations protected.
