Will 2019 be the year that AI really has an impact on regulatory compliance?

We’ve written previously about the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to transform compliance. The power of AI to process, manage and analyse large volumes of data, accurately, quickly and efficiently means that is very suited to certain elements of compliance.

GDPR is a perfect example. It requires huge volumes of data to be checked for compliance and using an AI-based automated tool makes a great deal of sense. But generally GRC teams have been mostly resistant to the use of AI in compliance.

What is behind this slow adoption and could 2019 be the year that AI truly has an impact on regulatory compliance?
