This episode introduces the overarching concept of artificial intelligence risk, moving beyond traditional cybersecurity to include systemic, ethical, and operational hazards. For the exam, candidates must understand that AI risk is not a standalone IT issue but a multi-dimensional business challenge that affects every level of the organization. We explore the definition of AI in the workplace, emphasizing the balance between rapid innovation and the necessity of organizational guardrails. By examining how AI changes the risk landscape through its scale and speed, practitioners can begin to build the mental framework required to navigate the certification's specific domains. This orientation sets the stage for a disciplined study approach, ensuring you prioritize understanding the "why" behind risk management before diving into technical controls.
