Board Minutes Are Not a Job for AI

Corporate partner Doug Raymond wrote an article for Directors & Boards titled, “Board Minutes Are Not a Job for AI.”

In the article, Raymond discusses how AI-based board tools are becoming increasingly popular in boardrooms and are being marketed as reducing the often-substantial effort required for setting agendas and preparing minutes. He notes that, the primary concern regarding usage of AI tools in the boardroom is their current lack of reliability.

“While AI tools can be useful to assist with routine tasks, the human touch is necessary so the final product accurately captures the essence of the meeting” said Raymond. “The corporate secretary should tailor the minutes to the significance of the specific matters being considered and the risk that they may later be examined by unfriendly eyes.”
