Building Responsible and Resilient AI: The Databricks AI Governance Framework

GenAI & machine learning are reshaping industries, driving innovation and redefining business strategies. As organizations embrace these technologies, they face significant challenges in managing AI initiatives effectively, such as balancing innovation with ethical integrity, operational resilience and regulatory compliance.
