What Boards Expect in 2025 AI Briefings

The questions directors and investors will ask about AI programmes this year—and how to answer them with substance.

Boards have moved beyond “What is AI?” to “Prove to us it is under control.” Expect these five questions at your next meeting.

  1. Where does AI create material risk? Highlight systems with revenue, safety, or regulatory exposure.
  2. Who owns AI governance? Show the reporting lines, budget, and escalation paths.
  3. How do we measure performance? Share metrics covering accuracy, fairness, incidents, and business impact.
  4. Are we compliant globally? Summarise status across EU AI Act, US EO, UK guidance, and APAC regimes.
  5. What is our response plan? Provide playbooks for regulator inquiries, customer escalations, and media questions.

Bring a simple heat map and one-page dashboard. Use Lex LLM to prepare briefing packs so directors can drill into the details without drowning in appendices.
