In this SXSW 2026 segment, Reed Smith and Tripadvisor leaders focus on what effective AI governance looks like once a system moves from design to deployment. Using Tripadvisor’s real-world product examples, the panel unpacks how organizations can pressure‑test AI tools, monitor performance over time, and respond quickly when outputs fall short of expectations. The discussion emphasizes that responsible AI requires more than policies and disclosures; it demands continuous testing, feedback loops, and human judgment to ensure that AI-driven products remain accurate, safe, and commercially viable as they scale.
