The artificial intelligence (AI) race is intensifying as developers push for increasingly capable AI tools and companies race to deploy AI tools to take advantage of its efficiency gains and reap financial benefits – but a new report warns companies lack sufficient governance for AI tools. AI literacy is the fifth pillar of the overarching AI governance framework Vogel suggested, which she linked to "increasing distrust of AI" and sees contributing to fears overshadowing enthusiasm about AI tools in the public's perception. "I think that squarely lands not only on the overall governance infrastructure that's lacking in most organizations, but this fundamental piece of AI governance which is AI literacy," Vogel explained. "Most people don't know that they're using AI, they don't want to use AI, don't know how to use it." "Making sure that your workforce and your consumers understand how you're using AI, how you will not be using AI, and how it can benefit them is a key variable."
