Which of the following presents the GREATEST risk when an organization deploys a machine learning...

In a real-time prediction environment (e.g., fraud detection, medical triage, automotive risk), latency and inference speed directly affect safety, accuracy, and business performance.

If the SLA does not include guarantees for latency , the model may fail to deliver predictions in time, leading to:

Incorrect or delayed decisions

Transaction failures

Safety incidents in time-sensitive use cases

Compliance violations in regulated domains

Although audit trails (B) and governance frameworks (D) are important, the operational risk related to latency is the most immediate and severe.

Limited AI skills among cloud employees (A) is not directly relevant since customers maintain operational responsibility.
