  1. ISO/IEC 22989, which establishes the foundational concepts and shared terminology used across AI standardization
    Plausible but wrong: 22989 defines vocabulary and concepts, not a certifiable management system.
  2. ISO/IEC 42005, which provides guidance for conducting an impact assessment of a given AI system
    Almost right, but 42005 addresses AI system impact assessment, not an organization-wide management system.
  3. ISO/IEC 42001, the certifiable AI management system standard built on a Plan-Do-Check-Act governance cycle ✓
    Correct: ISO/IEC 42001 is the certifiable AI management system standard using a PDCA structure.
  4. ISO/IEC 23894, which offers guidance on managing risk associated with the development and use of AI
    Related to governance, but 23894 gives AI risk-management guidance rather than a certifiable management system.
The trap
Selecting 23894 or 42005 because they sound governance-related, when only 42001 is a certifiable management system.

How to remember it

ISO/IEC 42001 is the certifiable AI management system (AIMS) standard structured around Plan-Do-Check-Act.
