Law firm MinterEllison published analysis on 22 October 2026 arguing that some AI risks sit in blind spots organisations can address themselves. The piece, titled "AI risks: the blind spots within your control," appeared in the firm's commentary feed and points to internal gaps rather than external threats as an area of exposure.
The summary accompanying the item also links to separate reporting from Digital Information World, headlined "You Can't Solve AI Risk Without Solving the AI Evidence Problem." According to that headline, efforts to manage AI risk run into difficulty when the evidence needed to assess it is missing or inadequate.
Taken together, the two items frame AI risk as a governance and record-keeping question as much as a technical one. MinterEllison's contribution focuses on the parts of that problem an organisation can act on directly, while the linked piece highlights the evidence gap that can undermine those efforts.
No further detail from either article was available in the source material, including the specific blind spots MinterEllison identifies or the remedies it proposes.
What to watch next: whether MinterEllison publishes detailed guidance on the controls it has in mind, and how organisations respond to the evidence problem raised in the linked reporting.
