This study examines the influence of artificial intelligence on the design and effectiveness of internal compliance policies within U.S. corporations, emphasizing how automation reshapes governance structures, fiduciary duties, and control mechanisms. Adopting a qualitative and applied approach through an integrative and comparative legal review, it gathers recent publications addressing the convergence between technology and corporate compliance. The findings reveal that AI enhances audit efficiency, strengthens predictive risk analysis, and transforms compliance into an intelligent system of corporate integrity. The results also show that board governance increasingly involves technological oversight and that data regulation has become central to ensuring transparency and the legitimacy of automated decisions. Furthermore, organizational diversity and culture emerge as key elements for promoting ethical and fair algorithmic practices. It concludes that artificial intelligence does not replace compliance but redefines it as a co-governance environment between humans and intelligent systems, requiring new ethical, legal, and operational frameworks.
