Compliance and AI: AI Governance as Compliance with Bennett Borden

What is the intersection of AI and compliance? What about machine learning? Are you using ChatGPT? These questions are just three of the many we will explore in this cutting-edge podcast series, Compliance and AI, hosted by Tom Fox, the award-winning Voice of Compliance. Today Tom visits with Bennett B. Borden, a lawyer-data scientist and former CIA analyst who led DLA Piper’s global AI practice before founding Clarion AI Partners, an AI-focused law firm and development shop building AI solutions with governance “baked in.”

Borden argues generative AI is transformative and that most legal work is highly repetitive and largely automatable, making traditional billable-hour law practice unsustainable. He frames AI governance as a compliance responsibility because AI operationalizes business objectives within regulatory constraints and must produce measurable, defensible proof of compliant behavior. He recommends cross-functional AI committees, using enterprise-licensed tools with enforceable policies, and building trust through controlled systems and quality controls. In a patchwork regulatory landscape, he emphasizes “reasonableness” and proving foreseeable risks are mitigated. He advises boards to oversee AI strategy, warns against delaying adoption, and urges compliance leaders to translate legal requirements into technical metrics (“governance engineering”).

Compliance and AI: Deterministic Legal Reasoning, Trust, and Auditability in Compliance Automation with Paul Welter

What is the intersection of AI and compliance? What about machine learning? Are you using ChatGPT? These questions are just three of the many we will explore in this cutting-edge podcast series, Compliance and AI, hosted by Tom Fox, the award-winning Voice of Compliance. Today Tom visits with Paul Welter, a German lawyer and former software engineer who co-founded Bayshore AI after research at Stanford Law School’s Codex on automating legal reasoning.

Welter explains Bayshore’s approach: extracting legal decision logic into deterministic, conventional code for predictable, explainable outcomes, while using large language models to gather scenario facts and handle vague legal terms. They discuss regulation as infrastructure for trust and economic activity and how today’s complexity creates bottlenecks that AI can alleviate by providing legal and compliance advice “in abundance.” Welter describes tailoring assessments to each customer’s policies and risk appetite, embedding them into workflows, and building trust through transparency, second-line control, and auditability for regulators. He highlights automation candidates (e.g., gifts/hospitality, third-party reviews) and advises teams to centralize request intake, measure frequency and effort, and automate iteratively.

Key highlights:

  • Predictable Legal AI
  • Regulation Enables Progress
  • Encoding Policies Not Laws
  • Building Trust in AI
  • Explainability and Audits
  • Agentic AI Use Cases
