From ‘Destroying Humanity’ to Product Obsolescence, AI Risks Rise for Boards

Companies are increasingly weighing the risks surrounding artificial intelligence, based on separate reviews of 10-Qs and 10-Ks by public company intelligence provider MyLogIQ and AlphaSense. Similarly, research company TipRanks recently noted a 646% increase in risk disclosures mentioning AI since 2018.

Such risks range from privacy concerns to intellectual property use to compliance to reputational issues, as well as the risk that AI could make a company’s product or services obsolete. And these risks are likely to evolve and become more severe as the adoption of generative and other forms of AI by businesses increases, sources told Agenda.

…Narrowing this down, 433 Russell 3000 companies made 767 such disclosures as of July 10, compared to the 377 companies that made some 963 disclosures for the full year in 2022, according to MyLogIQ. MyLogIQ tracked 312 companies making 749 disclosures in 2021.
