Agentic AI Governance: How to Approach It
Simulators don’t just teach pilots how to fly the plane; they also teach judgment. When do you escalate? When do you hand off to air traffic control? When do you abort the mission? These are human decisions, trained under pressure, and just as critical as the technical flying itself. First seen on securityboulevard.com Jump to…
