Generative AI systems present a significant audit challenge due to their ability to produce convincing yet inaccurate or biased outputs, a phenomenon termed the 'GenAI audit gap.' This gap arises from the inherent nature of large language models, which prioritize plausible text generation over factual verification, leading to a disconnect between the apparent credibility of their answers and their actual provability. Organizations often implement policies and committees that sound robust but lack practical enforcement, and they may overlook 'shadow AI' or fail to re-evaluate vendor models after updates, further widening the control gap.
