    Global Mobility in the AI Era: Why Hiring Still Needs Humans w/ Sonam Haider #36

    Global Mobility in the AI Era: Why Hiring Still Needs Humans w/ Sonam Haider #36 What really happens when a company moves talent across borders? In this episode of the Social Good Podcast, Rose talks with Sonam Haider, founder of Aethra Advisory, a talent mobility firm based in Dubai. With more than a decade in global mobility at companies like Amazon, Uber and Deel, Sonam explains why employee relocation needs a human layer, from work visa paperwork to settling in a new country, and why hiring locally is not always possible. We also talk about hiring in the AI era: AI and hiring, layoffs and AI job displacement, remote work, Aethra's plans to expand into employer of record (EOR), and the future of headhunting and global hiring. If you are relocating for work, thinking about moving to Dubai for work, or hiring global talent, this conversation on talent mobility and the future of work is for you. 00:00 Intro: meet Sonam Haider in Dubai01:56 What is Aethra Advisory?

    How Green Is AI? The Environmental Impact of AI w/ Nina Benoit #35

    How Green Is AI? The Environmental Impact of AI w/ Nina Benoit #35 What is the real environmental impact of AI, and how can you use AI sustainably? Nina Benoit, Director of Sustainability at Brightest, host of The AI Sustainability Podcast and author of the upcoming book How Green Is AI?, joins Rose to break down the AI carbon footprint and AI water footprint, why generating images and videos weighs far more than text, and how green AI tools like GreenPT, powered by 100% renewable energy and hosted in Europe, can lower your impact. We also talk about ESG reporting: how Brightest's ESG software uses AI for sustainability reports, what a double materiality assessment is, and what it takes to recertify as a B Corp. Her first tip is simple: before you prompt, ask yourself if you really need AI at all.
