Towards industrial AI governance inspired by OSPO - a primer

Strategic position of AI development in industrial settings, the surrounding regulations, and organizational challenges, have an interesting analogy in how we deal with Open Source Software on industrial scale.
Definition of governance as set of processes and guidelines for decision making within an organization gives us an opportunity to apply similar abstract models to seemingly different areas of endeavor such as AI production and consumer organizations, on one side, and Open Source Software, on the other. The learnings from running technical operations of OSPOs translate remarkably well into this model. Intake, compliance, distribution, so well known in the world of Open Source Program Offices, with its federated democratized governance, are some of the pillars of the processes that drive AI production and consumption organizations.
In this talk we will try to shed some light on how in Volvo Cars we approach practical aspects of these growing processes.
