Can AI help journalism move faster without sacrificing accuracy and trust?
In this episode of Driving Tomorrow: Conversations with Industry Leaders, I sat down with Jon Stokes, Co-Founder of Symbolic.ai, to explore how publishers can move beyond AI experimentation into practical, responsible daily use. We talk about where AI actually fits in newsroom workflows, how AI-powered fact-checking can reduce material errors, and why “humans in the loop” is still the only serious approach for professional journalism.
Some highlights from the interview
How publishers identify real workflow pain points (and which tasks AI shouldn’t touch)
AI fact-checking as “supported vs. unsupported” claims, and why that matters for editorial trust
Why the “volume SEO” era is fading, and how internal linking + quality standards matter more now
Guardrails: trusted source lists, standards enforcement, and keeping responsibility with the human publisher
What large newsroom adoption can mean for smaller outlets with tighter budgets
👉 This is a must-watch for anyone in journalism, publishing, or comms who needs to improve speed and accuracy while protecting credibility.

Is banning AI the biggest mistake a CISO can make?
In this episode, I sit down with Jeremy Ventura, Field CISO at Myriad360, to unpack the real risks of unmanaged AI in the enterprise. When employees turn to personal devices and unsanctioned tools, outright bans can push AI usage underground—creating shadow AI and expanding security blind spots.
📌 Highlights:
Why banning AI use can create more risk, not less
The rise of shadow AI and what it borrows from shadow IT
The biggest unmanaged-AI risks: data exposure, IP leakage, and compliance gaps
How CISOs can co-create AI policies that actually get followed
AI in cybersecurity: accelerating defenders—and lowering the barrier for attackers
👉 This is a must-watch for CISOs, IT leaders, and executives trying to enable AI safely without slowing the business down.
