David P. Reichwein is a founder, operator, and risk architect with more than 30 years of experience building and governing complex systems where failure carries legal, financial, and human consequences. He has worked inside Fortune-scale industrial enterprises and witnessed firsthand how a 157-year-old, $4-billion manufacturing company was hollowed out over a decade by asbestos litigation—not through recklessness, but through unrecognized, accumulating liability. He later experienced similar governance failures personally, shaping his focus on fiduciary duty, evidence, and oversight. David is the Founder and CEO of AI² (Asymmetric Intelligence & Innovation), an independent firm focused on AI governance, risk, and liability. AI² operates separately from AI vendors, providing assessment and governance infrastructure for adaptive, non-stationary AI systems deployed in regulated environments. He writes and advises from experience, not theory—focused on what holds up under scrutiny, discovery, and time.
