AI’s evolving role in business poses risks without clear goals and user permissions, warns Dr Karen Sutherland
On the latest episode of Social Intelligence, Dr Karen Sutherland from the University of the Sunshine Coast examines the growing risks of AI agents acting with greater independence.
Sutherland says greater capability can mean greater potential for risk, particularly when AI systems act without clear user permission.
She says businesses need to set clear goals and permissions when integrating AI into their operations, while strong governance can help prevent misunderstandings and unintended outcomes.
As AI agents become more autonomous, businesses will need to balance innovation with safeguards that keep users and organisations protected.
