The risk is not the AI
It is the governance the buyer inherits. DSI 001 provides diligence evidence relevant to valuation, IC review, conditions precedent, portfolio monitoring and exit readiness, for companies whose value depends on autonomous systems.
The governance the buyer inherits
The risk is that material valuation depends on an autonomous system whose governance cannot survive customer, insurer, regulator or acquirer review.
The absence of an external governance classification is itself a diligence consideration, particularly where valuation depends on autonomous-system performance.
Where it enters the deal
Where value is impaired, dimension by dimension
AI prompts, outputs and communications are increasingly treated as discoverable evidence of decision quality. A contemporaneous, independently assessed record is the difference between a clean data room and a reconstructed one.
