The premise
AI can draft AI policy exception request memos that name the rule, the use case, the risk, and the compensating controls in a single page.
What AI does well here
- Map proposed compensating controls back to the rule's underlying risk
- Draft a sunset clause and review trigger paired with the exception
What AI cannot do
- Approve the exception
- Verify that proposed compensating controls will be honored in practice
