Episode 56 — Document Incidents and Post-Market Monitoring While Reducing Secondary Uses and Downstream Harms
This episode focuses on the governance work that follows deployment when organizations must document incidents, sustain post-market monitoring, and control how AI systems are used beyond their original approved purpose. You will learn why incident records matter for accountability, trend analysis, remediation, and legal defensibility, and why post-market monitoring is necessary to detect harms that only become visible after real users, real workflows, and real incentives shape system behavior. For the AIGP exam, the key lesson is that governance must address secondary use and downstream harm, not just the primary deployment scenario. A tool introduced for one purpose can later be repurposed, integrated elsewhere, or relied on more heavily than intended, which can create new risks that were never reviewed. In practice, organizations reduce those risks by defining permitted uses, watching for misuse, documenting adverse events, and updating controls when monitoring reveals new patterns of harm or exposure.
