AI Risk
What is AI reputation risk?
AI reputation risk is the new category of reputational exposure created when synthetic content, automated decisions, and algorithmic systems interact with stakeholders. It differs from traditional risk in speed, surface area, and authorship — and most existing crisis frameworks were not designed for it.

How should organizations respond to deepfakes?
Effective deepfake response separates two questions: is the content authentic, and does it carry authority? Organizations should acknowledge the incident within minutes, deny without ambiguity if false, and invest in signal-trust infrastructure — verified channels, signed statements, and source-of-truth registries — long before an incident occurs.

What should boards ask management about AI?
Boards should ask five questions: Where is AI making decisions on our behalf? Who reviews those decisions? How would we know if a model misbehaved publicly? What is our disclosure posture? And who owns the reputational consequence?
