📍 Weekly Exclusive Interviews
This week’s Dispatch looks at what happens when AI changes faster than the controls around it. Kristof Horompoly of ValidMind argues that an agent’s memory—not just its underlying model—deserves attention in responsible AI governance.
Brian Cute of the Global Cyber Alliance brings the security challenge into focus: AI-enabled phishing is raising the pressure on organizations, particularly small businesses.
Sam Peters adds the operating question: how do you keep useful governance practices when AI makes the assumption of a steady state harder to sustain?

Participate in targeted sessions led by experts from 5app, AceUp, Veritas Prime, PageUp and other B2B innovators.

In the realm of AI Governance Statistics 2026, Kristof Horompoly offers critical insights derived from his extensive experience at ValidMind. His focus on the responsible development of AI, particularly in AI governance, is essential for businesses aiming to incorporate AI responsibly and effectively.
“Memory is what makes the agent unique compared to the model itself.” — Kristof Horompoly, Head of AI, ValidMind. Analysis of these statistics reveals that AI governance frameworks are becoming increasingly crucial as businesses seek to integrate AI into their operations.
As the president and CEO of the Global Cyber Alliance, Brian has firsthand experience in tackling cyber threats exacerbated by AI technology. This data highlights the pressing need for enhanced security measures.
“The increase is remarkable. Our focus today is to share with you the challenge for particularly small businesses.” — Brian Cute, President, Global Cyber Alliance. The data collected by Brian Cute across various engagements underscores the urgency of addressing cybersecurity threats. The dramatic rise in AI-enabled phishing attacks indicates that cybercriminals are rapidly adopting new technologies to enhance their tactics.
In 2026, AI Governance Statistics highlight the crucial need for adaptive governance frameworks. Sam Peters, with his extensive experience, provides data collected across numerous engagements that underscore the importance of integrating AI into existing governance models.
“Traditional governance works, but the assumption of a steady state is under strain.” — Sam Peters, Chief Product Officer, IO. The data collected by Sam Peters shows a significant shift in how AI governance is perceived and implemented.
Three priorities emerge: govern what agents remember and do, prepare people for more convincing phishing, and revisit controls as AI systems change. The goal is not to discard existing governance. It is to make accountability and review responsive enough for the systems organizations are deploying.
