  1. Assign clear executive accountability for AI governance and define each stakeholder's responsibilities. ✓
    Correct: the defect is undefined ownership; naming accountable roles and responsibilities resolves the stalled decisions.
  2. Buy extra model-monitoring tooling so that drift alerts are generated automatically across every business unit.
    Almost right: tooling helps operationally but does not resolve who is accountable for AI risk decisions.
  3. Require every employee to complete a general AI ethics awareness course before the next quarter ends.
    Almost right: awareness training is valuable but will not settle unassigned executive ownership of AI risk.
  4. Delay all AI projects until external regulators eventually issue fully prescriptive governance rules.
    Plausible but wrong: waiting on regulators abdicates internal accountability rather than establishing it.
The trap
Treating tools or training as a fix for a structural accountability gap that only defined ownership can close.
