    The Hidden Cost of Free AI Tools

    You've probably used a free AI tool this week. Whether it's ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, or another platform, these tools have become part of everyday work. They're fast, accessible, and often incredibly useful. But what are businesses giving away in exchange? In this episode of Glitchd, I explore the hidden risks behind free AI tools, including data exposure, confidentiality concerns, model training, and the governance challenges many organisations haven't yet considered. I also share practical advice on what businesses should be thinking about before employees start uploading documents, client information, financial data, or internal strategy into public AI platforms. Topics covered include: • Why "free" AI isn't always free  • What happens to the information you enter into AI tools  • The difference between public and enterprise AI solutions  • Data governance and confidentiality risks  • Why AI policies alone aren't enough  • Practical steps businesses can take to use AI more responsibly Whether you're a business owner, leader, legal professional, compliance specialist, or simply curious about how AI is changing the workplace, this episode will help you think more critically about the tools you're using every day. #AI #Governance #FreeAITools #ChatGPT #Claude #Gemini https://skspsl.com/

    When AI Gets It Wrong... Who's Left To Blame?

    In episode 5 of Glitchd, we get into the accountability problem that most businesses aren't taking seriously... Who carries the liability when AI output causes harm — the vendor, the business that deployed it, the person who used it? What does "human oversight" really mean in practice vs what it looks like on paper? And what have you agreed to in the terms and conditions of the AI tools you're already using? This one is for the well established business, startup founder, the corporate team, the freelancer, and the student because this is already playing out across every industry and every level.

    AI Didn't Discriminate. It Just Learned From People Who Did.

    Your AI tool isn't neutral. It never was because it was trained on decades of human decisions, hiring patterns, lending records, medical research made within systems that weren't fair to begin with. Now those decisions are being automated at scale.  A job application is rejected before a human sees it. A loan is declined due to a postcode. A patient is deprioritised by data that wasn't built around them. This episode breaks down how AI inherits bias, why most businesses don't know it's happening, and what to do about it. We cover: — Why bias is a data problem, not a tech problem — The Amazon tool that penalised women's CVs without anyone programming it to — What the EU AI Act requires from your business right now — 5 practical steps to build AI systems you can trust — Why critical AI literacy is paramount for all employees This one is for the business leader, the professional, the student, and anyone whose life has already been shaped by a decision an algorithm made.

    AI Washing: How to Spot a Company That's Absolutely Lying to You About AI

    AI washing is everywhere. Every company is "AI-powered." Every strategy is "responsible and ethical." Every product is "leveraging cutting-edge solutions." But what does any of that mean? In this episode, we break down the art of corporate AI nonsense... how to spot it, why it matters legally, and what real AI accountability actually looks like versus what it says in the press release. With a checklist you can use immediately and zero tolerance for vague answers, this one is equal parts entertaining and essential. Whether you're inside an organisation wondering if your AI narrative has outpaced your AI reality, or on the outside trying to assess whether a company's claims hold up, this episode is for you. https://skspsl.com/

    No AI Strategy Is Still A Strategy... Just The Worst Strategy

    The Arms Race You're Not Supposed to Notice

    The biggest AI story right now isn’t ChatGPT. It’s the hundreds of billions being poured into infrastructure and how this is quietly dictating which tools your company uses, where your data goes, and who actually controls it. In this episode, we unpack the commercial and legal reality behind AI adoption  from Copilot to “shadow AI” and why most organisations are moving faster than their governance frameworks can handle. https://skspsl.com/
