    Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde unpacks the biggest global signals from Jan 5–11, 2026—where CES turned AI into the headline act, regulators pushed back on new chatbots, and geopolitics reshaped the rules of cooperation. What does the U.S. stepping back from major UN institutions mean for climate and global governance—and who fills the vacuum? As China tightens pressure on Taiwan and the Ukraine war escalates with deeper cross-border strikes, are we entering a more fragmented security era? Plus: a landmark EU–Mercosur trade breakthrough, Apple's credit card partner switch, and what these moves reveal about where money, supply chains, and power are flowing next.

    442. ChatGPT Is Now Giving Health Advice. Should You Trust It?

    Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde unpacks OpenAI's newly released ChatGPT Health and what it signals about the future of consumer-facing healthcare AI. What exactly is "ChatGPT Health," and why is OpenAI moving from general chat to a dedicated health experience? When an AI gives the wrong answer in a high-stakes setting—medical advice, airline refunds, legal citations—who owns the liability: the user, the company deploying the chatbot, or the model-maker? How are regulators in the U.S., Europe, and beyond approaching AI in healthcare—and what counts as "wellness" versus "medical" software? Bidemi also explores the realities of AI error, hallucinations, and bias, and asks what these tools could mean for underserved and minority populations worldwide— including Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, and communities in low-resource health systems.

In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde sits down with cybersecurity leader Gideon Hazam, the Co-Founder, COO, and CCO of Memcyco, to unpack the exploding threat of phishing, account takeover (ATO), and digital impersonation in the age of AI.

What does "preemptive, real-time defense" actually look like when scammers can move at unprecedented speed and scale? Gideon also breaks down emerging fraud vectors like employee portal abuse and remote access scams, and shares what needs to change—from company playbooks to federal legislation—to better protect customers and employees alike.
