AI Governance Program Structure & Compliance

1. What is the purpose of an AI Governance Committee?

To write all code for AI systems

To provide cross-functional oversight, policy approval, and dispute resolution for AI initiatives

To market AI products to customers

To replace all manual business processes

2. Which role is responsible for ensuring AI systems comply with data privacy regulations?

Marketing director

Data Protection Officer or Privacy Officer in collaboration with AI governance teams

Only external auditors

Product managers exclusively

3. What does 'responsible AI' encompass in organizational governance?

Using AI without any restrictions or oversight

Developing and deploying AI systems that are fair, transparent, accountable, and compliant

Ensuring AI systems are always more accurate than human decision-makers

Minimizing regulatory oversight of AI projects

4. Which governance principle emphasizes that organizations should be able to explain AI decisions to affected individuals?

Efficiency principle

Transparency and accountability principle

Profit maximization principle

Speed-to-market principle

5. What is the primary goal of continuous monitoring in AI governance?

To eliminate the need for human oversight

To detect model degradation, bias drift, and ensure ongoing compliance

To increase model complexity indefinitely

To replace all governance policies with automation

6. Which assessment is critical before deploying an AI system in a production environment?

Marketing and sales feasibility only

Impact assessment covering fairness, privacy, security, and compliance risks

Only technical performance benchmarks

Cost reduction potential alone

7. What is the significance of 'data governance' in the context of AI governance?

Data governance is unrelated to AI governance

Proper data management, quality, and lineage are foundational to responsible AI

Data should be collected without any oversight or standards

Data governance only applies to financial institutions

8. Which of the following represents a high-risk AI application requiring stricter governance?

Recommending movies to streaming service users

Using AI to make hiring or credit decisions that significantly affect individuals

Predicting weather patterns for forecasts

Analyzing product inventory levels

9. What is 'explainable AI' (XAI) and its relevance to governance?

AI that only works for experts and specialists

AI systems whose decisions can be understood and interpreted by stakeholders

AI that explains why humans are inferior to machines

AI that requires no training or validation

10. Which practice is essential for managing AI-related compliance risks?

Documenting AI system decisions, training data, and governance decisions for audit purposes

Avoiding all regulatory requirements through technical workarounds

Using AI systems without any human oversight

Prioritizing speed to market over compliance

11. What is the primary purpose of an AI governance framework in an organization?

To maximize AI model accuracy above all other concerns

To establish policies, processes, and accountability for responsible AI development and deployment

To eliminate all AI-related risks completely

To reduce AI project costs and timelines

12. In AI governance, what does 'fairness' primarily mean?

All models must use identical algorithms

AI systems should treat individuals or groups equitably without discrimination

All stakeholders receive equal profit from AI projects

Training data must be balanced in size across all classes

13. Which governance control is designed to prevent unauthorized or inappropriate AI system use?

Model validation and testing

Access controls and audit logging

Data normalization procedures

Algorithm selection criteria

14. What is 'model drift' and why is it important in AI governance?

The gradual improvement of model performance over time

The degradation of model performance due to changes in data distribution or environment

The movement of data between different storage systems

The shifting of team members between AI projects

15. Which of the following is a critical element of model transparency and explainability in AI governance?

Keeping model details confidential from all stakeholders

Providing interpretable explanations for AI decisions to relevant stakeholders

Using only black-box models to protect intellectual property

Limiting model documentation to technical teams

16. What is the role of a Chief AI Officer or AI Governance Lead in an organization?

To build and train all machine learning models

To oversee AI strategy, governance policies, risk management, and cross-functional alignment

To manage only data security and privacy concerns

To ensure all AI projects achieve 99% accuracy

17. Which regulatory framework has most directly influenced AI governance requirements in the European Union?

HIPAA and GDPR

SOX and Basel III

AI Act and GDPR

NIST and ISO standards only

18. Identify the key components of a comprehensive AI risk assessment:

Model accuracy metrics and processing speed only

Identification, analysis, and evaluation of potential harms and compliance gaps

Hardware requirements and software licenses

Training dataset size and computational resources

19. What does 'algorithmic bias' refer to in the context of AI governance?

The preference of data scientists for certain algorithms

Systematic errors or unfair outcomes produced by AI systems due to flawed training data or design

The natural tendency of humans to prefer certain AI solutions

The cost difference between algorithm implementations

20. Which stakeholder group is typically responsible for overseeing AI governance strategy at the executive level?

Data scientists and machine learning engineers

Board of directors and C-suite executives

End users and customers

Regulatory compliance officers only
