ISO/IEC 42001 for the management system and ISO/IEC 22989: Which pairing of ISO/IEC standards meets these two
ISO/IEC 42001 is the certifiable AI management system standard and ISO/IEC 22989 is the concepts-and-terminology standard, so that pairing satisfies both needs.
The question
An organization needs two things: (1) a certifiable management system to govern AI responsibly, and (2) separately, a shared vocabulary of AI concepts to standardize its internal policies. Which pairing of ISO/IEC standards meets these two needs respectively?

- ISO/IEC 42005 for the AI management system and ISO/IEC 22989 for AI concepts and terminology.Plausible but wrong: the terminology mapping is right, but ISO/IEC 42005 covers AI system impact assessment, not a management system.
- ISO/IEC 42001 for the management system and ISO/IEC 42005 for concepts and terminology.Plausible but wrong: 42001 is correctly the management system, but 42005 is impact-assessment guidance, not the terminology standard.
- ISO/IEC 23894 for a management system and ISO/IEC 42001 for concepts and terminology.Plausible but wrong: ISO/IEC 23894 is AI risk-management guidance and 42001 is the management system, so both assignments here are misplaced.
- ISO/IEC 42001 for the management system and ISO/IEC 22989 for concepts and terminology. ✓Correct: ISO/IEC 42001 is the certifiable AI management system standard, and ISO/IEC 22989 provides foundational AI concepts and terminology.
The trap
Assuming ISO/IEC 42005 is a management-system or terminology standard because its number is close to 42001. How to remember it
ISO/IEC 42001 is the certifiable AI management system standard and ISO/IEC 22989 is the concepts-and-terminology standard, so that pairing satisfies both needs.
