    AI regulation in the UK, EU and rest of the world

    The pace of AI regulation is heating up. From the monumental AI Act passed by the EU, countries and states around the world adopting copycat laws, to commitments by the new UK government to better regulate artificial intelligence. Regulators and legislators are racing to ensure they are not left behind by the AI revolution, and can levy ever larger fines on companies who get things wrong. As companies and industries race to ensure they are AI-ready, the cost of a compliance failure is ticking up. With potential fines that could dwarf GDPR, getting it wrong when rolling out AI technology could be devastating. In this episode, VinciWorks compliance experts will discuss critical upcoming AI regulations in the UK.  From fines on compliance failure to possible new protections for workers, the UK has fallen behind on AI regulation recently but looks set to catch up quickly. We’ll also consider the implementation of the EU’s AI Act - the blockbuster regulation which has set a new global standard. And we’ll consider new regulations across the world from key US states like California and AI laws in Brazil, China and the Middle East. Key points this podcast will cover:  What the UK plans for AI regulation How would the UK enhance protections against AI discrimination How does the EU’s AI Act work? What are the sanctions on businesses under the EU AI Act? What businesses need to know when investing in AI Other AI laws and regulations around the world

    Making your organisation more neurodiversity friendly

    Neurodiversity is becoming more understood as a workplace issue. As many as 1 in 7 people in the UK are neurodivergent, meaning that organisations that fail to meet the needs of their neurodivergent staff and clients are neglecting a significant demographic. Although there are challenges associated with these differences, there are also many strengths. At the same time, failing to make workplaces inclusive of neurodiversity is an increasing risk. Over a hundred cases of neurodiversity discrimination were taken to employment tribunals last year, with almost none the year before. Organisations that fail to put in place the right policies and procedures to support neurodivergent staff are at risk of losing talented staff, as well as the risk of legal action. Making a workplace that is neurodiversity friendly doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. In this episode, we’ll look at what neurodiversity is, strategies to support neurodivergent staff at work, and what policies and procedures organisations should have in place. This one-hour session will cover: - What is neurodiversity and what are different neurodivergent conditions? - The challenges faced by neurodivergent staff at work - Strategies to support and encourage diversity of thought at work - Short workplace scenario clips on how organisations can support neurodivergent people - Supporting neurodivergent staff in the workplace - Creating policies and procedures inclusive of neurodiversity

    Getting to grips with proliferation financing one year on

    Since 1 April 2023, all firms in the regulated sector have been required to carry out proliferation financing (PF) risk assessments. This applies to all regulated entities, from law firms to financial services, casinos to cryptocurrency. Regulated entities can create a new risk assessment on proliferation financing or incorporate PF risks into existing AML and terrorist financing risk assessments. However, regulators expect firms to take action to understand the risk of PF and how to mitigate it in their business. Failing to do so can result in a breach of the Money Laundering Regulations. One year into this new requirement on the regulated sector, how effective have the new regulations been? What are the key strategies for compliance, and what are the best practice tips for ensuring PF obligations are met? In this episode, we’ll look at the issue of proliferation financing in detail, discuss strategies for compliance, and share best practices for understanding and mitigating PF risks. This one-hour session will cover: - What proliferation financing is and the jurisdictions and industries at risk - The differences and similarities between proliferation financing, money laundering and terrorist financing - Practical examples of how proliferation financing can happen - Proliferation red flags and high risk indicators - Strategies and technologies to counter the risk of proliferation financing - How to undertake a proliferation financing risk assessment
