22/05/2026 | 7 mins.
Send us Fan Mail A new study found that two identical AI-generated CVs received completely different reactions based on one thing only: the candidate’s name. In this episode, I explore the growing bias problem in AI-assisted hiring, why women may be judged more harshly for using AI tools, and what happens when AI systems themselves inherit discrimination from human behaviour and historical data.

Ep 392: EU Updates Guidance for AI in Research
20/05/2026 | 6 mins.
Send us Fan Mail The European Commission has updated its guidance on how researchers should use generative AI, and the new warnings are telling. In this episode, I unpack the risks around hidden prompts, AI notetakers in research meetings, and why governance without enforcement is simply aspiration. Because the real issue isn’t whether organisations are using AI. It’s whether they can still maintain trust, transparency, and accountability once AI becomes embedded in everyday work.

Ep 391: What is an AI Log?
19/05/2026 | 7 mins.
Send us Fan Mail Data Security firm Metomic found that nearly 35% of what employees type into ChatGPT contains sensitive data. It’s fair to say most organisations cannot tell you what their people are actually asking AI to do, because they are not logging it. In today's episode, we are talking about AI logs. What they are, why they matter, and why the EU AI Act has made them a legal requirement for certain organisations.
