66% of Board Directors Now Use AI for Board Work. Only 22% Have Any Governance Process for It.

22% OF DIRECTORS HAVE AI GOVERNANCE PROCESSES IN PLACE

Corporate Board Member and Diligent Institute’s 2026 ‘What Directors Think’ survey of public company board members found 66% now use AI for board work, from meeting prep to risk analysis. Only 22% say their board has a governance process guiding that use. Boards are being asked to oversee AI risk across the business while running largely ungoverned on their own AI use.
