Explanation

AI systems introduce unique change risks not present in traditional software: model drift, amplified biases from retraining, unexpected emergent behaviors, and cascading effects on downstream decisions. A comprehensive risk assessment specific to AI-related changes ensures that each change is evaluated for these risks before deployment, making it the cornerstone of AI change management. Option A (governance committee) is a structural control, not a change management activity. Option B (reviewing documentation) is a supporting practice but not the most critical element. Option D (ethics training) is valuable but does not directly govern the change management process.
