Lesson 3 of 8
Week 3 · Governance & Risk
Governance & Risk
After this week you will be able to implement an AI risk framework that satisfies global standards and Mexico's emerging regulation without stalling innovation. Use the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, which organizes governance into four continuous functions, Govern, Map, Measure, and Manage, so risk is handled across the AI lifecycle. Then navigate data sovereignty and Mexico's proposed Ley Nacional para Regular el Uso de la Inteligencia Artificial: the Senate initiative would create an Autoridad Nacional de Inteligencia Artificial (an independent regulator), classify AI systems by risk level, and mandate strict rules on personal data. It contemplates severe sanctions, fines, market withdrawal, and even criminal referral for high-risk infractions. Example: a firm deploying credit-scoring AI must map data-privacy impacts and document residual risk to satisfy both the NIST RMF and the regional law.
Boardroom deliverable: an AI Risk Tiering Matrix that maps your current AI initiatives against the NIST functions and Mexico's proposed compliance requirements.
