More than 83 percent report using AI tools, yet only about 25 percent have implemented a strong governance framework. Generative AI leads the stack, but data quality issues, lack of expertise, and unmanaged employee use are creating real friction. Meanwhile, executive leadership is driving adoption from the top down, faster than compliance teams can keep up.
