AI isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a responsibility. In this episode of Innovation Insights, Donny Shimamoto, CPA.CITP, CGMA is joined by Jason Pikoos and David Wood to unpack the new Generative AI Governance Framework—what it is, why every organization (big or small) needs it, and how to make it work in the real world. From managing AI “hallucinations” to integrating governance with your existing policies, they cover the risks, controls, and human factors shaping AI adoption in accounting and beyond. Whether you’re leading a firm, working in finance, or just trying to use AI smartly, this is your roadmap to responsible innovation.
