Safety-Critical Industries Offer a Blueprint for Enterprise AI Governance
The tech world is currently obsessed with "AI Sovereignty" and compliance. What used to be a niche conversation for legal teams has, by most recent industry accounts, become a board-level concern almost overnight.
Every enterprise wants to build an AI wrapper or deploy a local LLM to "optimize processes." I get the appeal. But if you're working in a highly regulated industry-aerospace, nuclear power, critical infrastructure-you can't just move fast and break things. Judging by what I've seen across both aviation and nuclear projects, when things break in these environments, the consequences aren't a bad app review. Planes fall out of the sky. Reactors go into meltdown.
