Physical AI: Why Corporate Boards Must Prepare for Cyber-Physical Risks
This article examines the emergence of Physical AI—the integration of advanced AI (deep learning, computer vision, multimodal foundation models) into physical systems like robotics, autonomous vehicles, and manufacturing equipment. It explains how multimodal AI developments are enabling this shift and warns corporate boards about the new dimensions of cyber-physical risk that Physical AI introduces. The piece argues that boards need to prepare for governance, safety, and liability challenges that go beyond traditional software AI risks.
