Top considerations for your business use of GenAI: Five checklists for 2025

Whether your ambition is for generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) to transform your organization or to augment what you already do well, BLG has assembled quick checklists of topics for Canadian businesses to grapple with internally and with customers — not to mention summarize for their boards — as they strategically leverage the technology.

In what follows, AI governance is crucial. It takes form at stage setting, then carries over all subsequent efforts. It provides a framework that ensures your organization is using GenAI responsibly, with clear structures and safeguards in place to ensure that all AI systems are functioning as intended, and in alignment with your policies and objectives. While companies eager to innovate may be well positioned to capitalize on the competitive edge offered by GenAI and other emerging technologies, it's essential for leadership teams and boards to take a responsible approach if they are to draw advantage of their full promise.
