Matteo Coppola on Slow down AI development

Matteo Coppola

Global leader of Risk and Compliance and Managing Director and Senior Partner at Boston Consulting Group; coauthor of BCG's AI safety and governance research.

Banks have largely built the foundations for governing AI, and the benchmark shows that governance and speed need not be a tradeoff. The banks that are applying governance best in day-to-day operations are the ones scaling AI most extensively. The task now is to extend that discipline to agents before they become more deeply embedded.
