episode Why AI Governance Unlocks Innovation with Seto Adenuga artwork

Why AI Governance Unlocks Innovation with Seto Adenuga

Responsible AI is often treated as a compliance burden. That is a mistake. Done properly, governance becomes an innovation gate: helping organisations build AI that is safer, more trusted and easier to scale. The real challenge is moving beyond mature privacy or security controls and creating AI governance that works across the full lifecycle from design and harms assessment to deployment and oversight. Seto, an AI governance and ethics practitioner with a privacy background, shows why this field needs more than technical expertise. It needs people who can translate risk, regulation and human impact into practical controls. Her message for women entering AI is clear: the path does not have to be linear. Passion, governance experience and a commitment to fairness can be just as powerful as a technical degree. The future is not just responsible AI, it is responsible innovation.

When AI Lies About You: The New Reputation Crisis with Ian Aizikovich, Flarepoint

AI hallucinations are no longer just technical glitches. They are becoming reputational, legal and financial risks for companies, public bodies and individuals. As LLMs become a primary source of knowledge, what AI says about a brand, leader, government or institution can shape public perception even when it is wrong, biased or based on partisan data. Ian, founder of FlarePoint, argues that businesses need to monitor AI-generated narratives with the same seriousness they apply to cyber, legal and brand risk. The challenge is both external and internal: hallucinations can damage public trust, while model bias can influence decisions inside banks, investors and public institutions. The UK has a clear opportunity: flexible regulation, stronger accountability and new tools for narrative integrity could turn responsible AI governance into a competitive advantage.

episode How Regulation Unlocks AI Investment with Angela Stathi artwork

How Regulation Unlocks AI Investment with Angela Stathi

AI policy is no longer just about risk. It is becoming a lever for investment, market confidence and national competitiveness. The hardest challenge is balancing innovation with stability: creating rules that protect consumers without slowing the technologies that could reshape financial markets, defence, energy and healthcare. Angela, a senior commercial, technology and investment executive, works at the intersection of regulation, innovation and capital mobilisation. Her career shows why AI leadership needs cross-sector range, not narrow expertise. From financial services transformation to advising on digital assets, tokenisation and deep tech investment, the future of AI will be shaped by people who can translate between regulators, investors, innovators and governments, and turn complexity into scalable economic impact.

episode No Data Strategy, No AI Strategy with Fuad Hendricks, Hark Consultants artwork

No Data Strategy, No AI Strategy with Fuad Hendricks, Hark Consultants

AI ambition is outpacing data readiness. Companies want agentic AI, automation and enterprise-scale intelligence, but many are still running on fragmented systems, unclear ownership and messy legacy data. The real bottleneck is not model capability. It is the “data value gap”: the distance between the data organisations collect and the business value they can actually extract from it. Fuad, co-founder and MD of Hark Consultants, argues that data must become a board-level performance driver, not a back-office concern. That means clear accountability, stronger data literacy, secure data sovereignty and governance built into AI projects from day one. For business leaders, the message is direct: scalable AI starts long before deployment. Get the foundations right, and AI can unlock new products, revenue streams and operating models. Skip them, and AI stays trapped in pilots. AI is our Business. UKAI is the Trade Association for AI businesses across the UK. Join us, ukai.co [https://www.ukai.co]

episode Why Responsible AI Needs Different Thinkers with Petra Abbam, BBC artwork

Why Responsible AI Needs Different Thinkers with Petra Abbam, BBC

Most companies treat AI adoption as a technology problem. The harder challenge is cultural: helping people know when to use AI, when not to, and how to make responsible choices by default. Responsible AI is not just governance paperwork. It is an operating model for trust, value and risk management. Petra, who leads responsible AI engagement at the BBC, shows why the field needs more than technical specialists. Her “squiggly” career across software, publishing, media and digital strategy has become an advantage, not a liability. AI transformation needs people who can connect systems, stories and social impact. Diverse career paths may be exactly what organisations need to turn AI from a buzzword into responsible business value. AI is our Business.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
