AI TRİSM

I’ve heard of a prism… what on earth is a TRiSM?

Your uncertainty is understandable, as it’s a rather forced acronym. Simply put, it refers to the particular human and organisational issues raised by AI adoption projects, namely Trust, Risk, Security and... well, the “M” just stands for Management.
