Will AI join the boardroom? Agents, ‘shadow boards’, decision power and security risks
Tuesday, 17 March, 2026
Could AI soon have a seat on the board of directors? In this episode of Today in Tech, host Keith Shaw talks with Kevin Bocek, Senior Vice President for Innovation at CyberArk, about the rise of agentic AI in corporate leadership — starting with “AI shadow boards” that advise CEOs and potentially evolving into AI that actually votes on board decisions. They dig into why companies are exploring AI for board-level decision-making, what benefits AI agents could bring (speed, consistency, transparency for shareholders), and the biggest risks leaders can’t ignore — privileged access to sensitive financial and strategic data, accountability when AI gets it wrong, and how identity security could become the “kill switch” for powerful AI agents. It may seem like a goofy idea now, but could be looming in the future. We break down what’s real, what’s hype and what questions to ask if AI moves from advisor to decision-maker.
