The 2026 Guide to Responsible AI Governance & Scalability - Highspring Trust Tuesday - Maher Hanafi

Описание: #TrustTuesday Ask the Expert | 2026 Edition! 🎉

As AI investments scale, one question is rising to the top for leaders everywhere: 👉 How do we generate real AI ROI—without increasing risk, cost, or trust erosion?

This week, I’m excited to welcome a leader who lives at that exact intersection:🎙 Maher Hanafi, the SVP of Engineering, Betterworks

Maher is one of those rare operators who deeply understands both AI innovation and AI governance—and how to balance them to drive measurable value. He’s highly sought after for his ability to help teams right-size compute, make smart trade-offs between accuracy, latency, scalability, and safety, and avoid the hidden costs beneath the surface of AI.

In our conversation, Maher shared powerful insights on:

➡️ Why AI ROI breaks down when governance is treated as a checkbox
The “AI Iceberg”—the unseen risks that quietly inflate cost and stall momentum

➡️ How red-teaming, HITL, and fairness evaluations actually accelerate time-to-value

➡️ His AI Nexus framework for prioritizing investments and building AI programs that scale sustainably

Maher brings deep experience across gaming (EA, Ubisoft), health tech, and enterprise SaaS—and is a passionate mentor through the Strategic AI Program at USF, as well as a speaker at AI DevWorld and GenAI Summit.

🎯 Today’s theme: “What Is the AI Nexus—and How It Drives Measurable AI ROI”

At Highspring, this is exactly where we partner with companies—helping them turn AI risk into advantage through:

☑️ Adversarial red-teaming and device testing
☑️ Model evaluations for fairness & explainability
☑️ Human-in-the-loop AI governance and safety testing best practices
☑️ Trust & safety by design aligned with the EU AI Act and growing regulations from the United States and China

Because real AI ROI comes from trust, not shortcuts.
