Which of the following is the PRIMARY objective of AI governance?

The AAIA™ Study Guide defines the primary objective of AI governance as establishing structure and accountability for AI initiatives. This includes clearly assigning responsibilities across development, deployment, risk management, and auditing roles to ensure that AI is used responsibly and transparently.

“AI governance establishes the policies, roles, and oversight structures that guide the ethical and secure deployment of AI. Clear accountability helps prevent unauthorized use and ensures strategic alignment.”

Options A and C are essential components of governance but are not its core definition. Option D is a business outcome, not a governance goal. Thus, B is the most comprehensive and accurate objective.
