About this listen
In this episode, hosts Professor Michael Mainelli and Adam Leon Smith welcome Patrick Sullivan for a practical look at AI certification and ISO/IEC 42001. Patrick explains what third-party certifiers actually do and how they provide objective assurance on AI management systems. He addresses common misconceptions since 42001’s 2023 release, whilst also highlighting the growing market demand, with major firms like Microsoft, Oracle, and Anthropic earning certification and pushing it down supply chains, plus real value in risk management and investment confidence. The discussion covers regional differences in AI governance, the skills needed for effective audits, implementation challenges for organisations of all sizes, and formalising expectations around agentic AI governance. A grounded, certifier’s-eye view on turning the AI standards stack into real-world assurance.
