Is your organization prepared for the privacy and security responsibilities that come with AI?
In a recent episode of The Member Engagement Show, Amanda DeLuke, Senior Privacy Analyst at Higher Logic, dives into the challenges and opportunities AI presents for associations. As AI continues to grow in influence, it raises critical questions about privacy, security, and responsible use. Amanda offers a grounded perspective on how organizations can approach AI thoughtfully, leveraging its potential while protecting sensitive data and maintaining trust with their members.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
Why ISO and SOC2 standards are key to building trust and security.
The latest trends in AI privacy and data protection.
Steps to integrate AI responsibly without overwhelming your team.
Free tools and resources for managing privacy risks effectively.
How to approach legislative updates on high-risk AI applications.
The role of data classification in safeguarding sensitive information.
Amanda stresses the importance of starting with small, intentional steps to build a strong foundation for AI use. Whether it’s understanding how existing data classification processes can guide AI integration or tapping into community resources, associations can begin addressing AI-related challenges in a manageable way. Her practical advice empowers organizations to move forward confidently, even in a fast-changing technological environment.
For associations with limited resources, Amanda underscores that responsible AI use doesn’t require a massive overhaul. Simple measures like creating clear policies, involving staff in open discussions, and testing AI tools with public data first can make a significant impact. By approaching AI thoughtfully, associations can stay ahead of emerging privacy trends, align their practices with member expectations, and build a culture of trust and transparency. The conversation isn’t just about adopting AI; it’s about doing so in a way that reflects your organization’s values and long-term goals.
