Anthropic founders Dario and Daniela Amodei sat down with Oprah Winfrey for one of the most revealing AI interviews of the year, and the conversation raised some serious questions about the future of artificial intelligence, ethics, safety, and power. 

In this episode, I break down the biggest moments from the interview, including Anthropic’s decision to refuse Pentagon requests to remove Claude’s safety guardrails, why the company banned advertising from day one, and how the sibling founders are prioritising public benefit over pure profit.

In this episode, I break down the European Commission’s new guidance on high-risk AI systems under the EU AI Act, what it means for HR and recruitment teams, what’s already banned, and why organisations need to start preparing now, not in 2027.

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.

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.

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.

Anthropic has launched Claude for Small Business, and it’s a shift from AI as a chat tool to AI as a co-worker.

In this episode, I break down how pre-built workflows inside tools like QuickBooks, PayPal, and Google Workspace can take care of the jobs that keep you working late.

The question is simple: Will you set up one workflow this month, or keep doing it all manually?

Most organisations don’t have an AI policy, but your staff is already using AI.

In this episode, I share my weekly digital download from Good Morning Dublin where I break down why every workplace needs clear AI guidelines, what should be included, and how to manage the rise of “shadow AI” safely and responsibly.

From acceptable use to data protection and human oversight, this is your practical guide to putting guardrails in place without slowing innovation.

If you’re a business owner, manager, or employee, this is a conversation you need to hear.
