November 01, 2024Episode 40 - The Celebration of Corporate Compliance Week Edition
What happens when two top compliance commentators get together? They talk compliance, of course. Join Tom Fox and Kristy Grant-Hart in 2 Gurus Talk Compliance as they discuss the latest compliance issues in this week’s episode!
Co-hosts Kristy Grant-Hart and Tom Fox tackle high-profile compliance issues in this episode. They start with Boeing’s cultural failures, highlighted by the Wall Street Journal. They question whether Boeing is too big to fail and emphasize the need for a comprehensive monitorship. The topic then shifts to AI, specifically the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's warnings about employee surveillance. The hosts discuss the potential cultural problems and lack of respect for workers stemming from AI-driven monitoring tools, advocating for a balanced workplace surveillance approach.
Next, we cover the harrowing story of a Binance compliance officer detained in Nigeria under dubious charges and celebrate the appointment of an ethics and compliance chief at OpenAI. They explore the challenges of managing AI ethics at such a high-profile company. Kristy and Tom also discuss the controversial new UK law aimed at preventing workplace sexual harassment, the work burnout epidemic among Gen Z workers, and the scandalous allegations against Abercrombie’s former CEO for sex trafficking. The episode looks light-heartedly at a Florida man’s bizarre bacon heist.
