 Can you tell the difference between a real image and one created by AI? 

In this episode, I share practical tips on how to identify AI-generated images and videos online.

Speaking on Good Morning Dublin, I explain how bad actors are using AI to create convincing fake content, particularly during times of global conflict when misinformation spreads rapidly on social media.

“Like all the muscles in the body, if we do not use them, they die.”

That is the message from Pope Leo XIV, who has warned priests against relying on AI to prepare homilies.

In this episode, I explore the Pope’s comments from a closed-door meeting with Rome’s clergy, where he cautioned against the temptation to generate sermons with artificial intelligence and reminded priests that AI can never “share faith.”

Jack Dorsey’s company Block Inc., parent of Square and Cash App, is cutting around 40% of its workforce, more than 4,000 jobs, and the market responded positively.

In this episode, I break down what this really means for businesses watching from the sidelines.

Dorsey believes most organisations will make similar moves in the coming year.

The question is no longer whether AI will change workforce structures. It is how fast, and whether you are prepared.

The hottest job in AI right now isn’t coding, it’s communication.

In this episode, I explore why companies like Netflix, OpenAI, and Anthropic are paying up to $775,000 for communications roles. As AI floods the internet with automated content, the ability to explain complex technology clearly and build trust has become one of the most valuable skills in tech.

I break down the data behind this trend and explain why storytelling, strategy, and AI literacy are now critical skills in the AI era.

What if schools replaced teachers with AI?

In this episode, I examine a controversial AI-powered school in Texas where students learn through software for just two hours a day. While the model promises faster learning, a CNN investigation found some students falling behind and struggling with anxiety. 

I break down what’s happening, why it matters, and the dilemma educators now face in an AI-powered world.

What happens when AI ethics collide with military power?

In this episode, I unpack the high-stakes negotiations between OpenAI and Anthropic and the U.S. Department of Defense. Both companies drew the same red lines: no mass domestic surveillance and no fully autonomous weapons, yet only OpenAI walked away with a Pentagon deal.

So what made the difference?

I explore how the framing of AI safety, national security, and public messaging shaped the outcome, and what it could mean for the future of AI governance.

Google has quietly embedded powerful AI tools across Chrome and Workspace, and most teams are not using them.

From Auto Browse and custom Gems to the =AI() function in Sheets and NotebookLM, these features go far beyond email summaries.

In this episode, I share seven Google AI tools that can automate tasks, speed up workflows, and give your organisation an edge.

In this episode, I explain why employees hold back and what leaders must do to turn AI into real productivity gains.

With businesses forecasting 30% growth in 2026, there is a clear gap between ambition and execution.

In this episode, I unpack the latest Platform94 survey and explain why moving from piloting AI to embedding it is the step most organisations are struggling to take.
