Readers Say
SOVEREIGN is the book the AI governance conversation has been waiting for. Tonisha Tagoe writes with the authority of someone who has lived these questions from the inside.
A landmark work. Tonisha brings together geopolitics, institutional leadership, and ethics in a way that finally makes AI governance accessible to practitioners.
I've read widely on AI and technology governance. SOVEREIGN is the first book I have felt compelled to give to every colleague.
