Abstract

ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international standard for managing artificial intelligence, and it asks for governance, audit and accountability you can prove. An owned, audited, on premises Sovereign Intelligence Operating System satisfies that far more cleanly than black box cloud AI, and it lines up with the direction of the EU AI Act.Originally published at https://mickai.co.uk/articles/iso-iec-42001-and-sovereign-ai. Mickai is a Sovereign Intelligence Operating System; the Open Audit Record signs every artificial intelligence action before it executes, post-quantum and offline-verifiable. 104 filed UK patent applications, Mickai LTD (Companies House 17166618).
