Innovation in Compliance: Bennett Borden on the AI Driven Law Practices of Clarion AI Partners

Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom speaks with Bennett Borden of Clarion AI Partners.

Borden is a lawyer and data scientist whose career has long focused on the intersection of law, data, and technology, including AI governance, compliance, and the legal implications of generative AI. Drawing on experience at the CIA, in big law, and leading AI-focused legal practices, he views generative AI as a disruptive force reshaping both legal services and business models. Borden argues that effective AI governance requires “governance engineering”: translating legal obligations into technical controls and measurable proof of compliance rather than treating compliance as a separate burden. He also encourages lawyers and organizations to embrace AI proactively, using it to build more efficient, future-ready practices while managing risk through practical, system-level safeguards.

 

Key highlights:

  • AI-Driven Law Practice Beyond the Billable Hour
  • Compliance as guardrails for faster innovation
  • Gift, Travel, and Entertainment Sandbox Projects
  • Trust Built by Enterprise Licenses and Safeguards
  • Microsecond-by-Microsecond Compliance Proof for AI Governance

Compliance and AI: The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: Overcoming Fear, Identity Threat, and Shadow AI

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 Dr. Gleb Tsipursky about his book, The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results (Georgetown University Press), arguing that AI adoption fails mainly due to human factors, not tool complexity.

Citing Pew research showing widespread anxiety about AI and an MIT finding that 95% of AI pilots fail to scale, Dr. Tsipursky describes three emotional blockers: fear of job loss (“AI alarmists”), identity threat when AI automates work people take pride in (“pragmatic resisters”), and shame-driven “reluctant adopters” who use AI secretly, fueling shadow AI risk and limiting ROI. He advises leaders to commit to growth over layoffs, automate disliked tasks first, model AI use, and create sharing channels and meetings to normalize safe adoption. He also emphasizes governance with clear ethical guardrails and individual accountability, replacing approval bottlenecks that drive shadow use.

Key highlights:

  • Why AI Adoption Fails
  • Three Emotional Blockers
  • Trust and Social Stigma
  • AI Versus Calculators
  • Creating Psychological Safety
  • Tactics for Identity Threat
  • Ending Shadow AI Usage
  • Ethical Guardrails and Governance
  • What Success Looks Like
