Parisa Tabriz is vice president and general manager for Google Chrome, the world's leading browser platform. She leads efforts to make Chrome a secure and essential enterprise workspace, integrating AI and advanced cybersecurity to meet evolving business needs. In this episode, Parisa joins Bob to explore how Chrome is redefining the browser as a productivity and security platform, the role of AI in enterprise protection, and what's next for Chrome's innovations.Chrome at Google Cloud NextThe Big Themes:Chrome's Evolution into a Central Productivity and Security Platform: Over the past 17 years, Chrome has transformed from a simple web browser into a comprehensive platform integral to enterprise productivity and security. Users now spend a significant portion of their workday within Chrome, utilizing it for tasks ranging from document editing to video conferencing. This shift has positioned Chrome as the new endpoint in enterprise environments.Simplifying Enterprise Security with Chrome: Complexity is often the enemy of security. Chrome aims to simplify enterprise security by integrating protective measures directly into the browser, reducing the need for multiple, potentially conflicting security solutions. Features like automatic updates, built-in phishing protection, and centralized policy management allow IT teams to maintain a secure environment with less overheads.Personalization, Governance, and AI Empowerment: Chrome prioritizes features that allow organizations to personalize user experiences while maintaining strict governance over data and AI usage. Tools like data masking, controlled copy-paste functionalities, and the ability to designate approved AI applications help prevent data leaks and ensure compliance with internal policies. By providing these controls, Chrome empowers enterprises to harness the benefits of AI technologies responsibly.The Big Quote: ". . . the browser is the place where you can give people access to the benefits [of AI], but also make sure that you have the controls and governance to turn it off or make sure that your employees aren't copying and pasting data into an unsanctioned AI surface."More from Parisa Tabriz and Google Chrome:Connect with Parisa on LinkedIn or learn more about Google Chrome.

Guest: Christine Boyce, Global Innovation Leader at ManpowerGroup/Right Management“We have to stress-test innovation in the messiness of real-world hiring, not just ideal lab conditions.”-Christine BoyceIn this episode of Psych Tech @ Work, I'm joined by my longtime friend Christine Boyce, Global Innovation Leader at ManpowerGroup/Right Management, to explore how innovation — especially around AI — is reshaping hiring and talent development at scale, and why solving for trust, transparency, and operational realities matters more than ever.SummaryAt the heart of this conversation is the reality that scaling AI innovation in hiring brings massive complexity. While AI offers incredible promise, solving for accuracy, fairness, and operational reality becomes exponentially harder when you're dealing with a large number of unique clients.Christine Boyce, through her work at ManpowerGroup & Right Management, operates at the intersection of these challenges every day. Unlike internal talent acquisition leaders who focus on one organization's needs, Christine must help innovate across a vast client portfolio. Each client presents different barriers — from data limitations, to ethical concerns, to regulatory pressures — and innovation must be modular, defensible, and adaptable to succeed.This vantage point gives Christine a unique, big-picture view of how AI adoption really plays out across industries and markets.We dive into the practical challenges of innovating responsibly: earning trust, scaling solutions across diverse environments, and balancing speed with fairness. Christine's work at ManpowerGroup & Right Management highlights how innovation must be deeply disciplined if it is to achieve true scale and impact.The Core Challenge: Scaling Accuracy and FairnessAt the heart of using AI for hiring lies the challenge of achieving accuracy and fairness at scale. AI's true value isn't just its ability to make individual decisions — it's in processing vast amounts of data and automating judgment across thousands of candidates. However, scale magnifies both strengths and weaknesses: minor biases can grow into systemic problems, and small inefficiencies can snowball into major failures.Staffing firms like ManpowerGroup offer critical real-world lessons:* Scale forces discipline — Every AI tool must be rigorously vetted for fairness, transparency, and defensibility before deployment.* Real-world variation stresses the system for the better — Tools must flexibly adapt to diverse jobs, industries, and candidate pools. This makes the overall path of innovation better and drives great learnings across the board.* Speed must not erode trust — Productivity gains must still respect ethical standards and candidate experience.* External accountability keeps AI honest — Clients demand transparency, validation, and explainability before adoption.Real Barriers to AI Adoption: What Clients Are FacingDespite AI's potential, Christine identifies several persistent hurdles that she faces when serving her diverse slate of clients:* Resistance to Behavior Change: Even demonstrably valuable AI tools often struggle against entrenched workflows and distrust of automation.* Ethical and Trust Concerns: Clients demand AI systems that are transparent, explainable, and defensible, fearing reputational or regulatory risks.* Vendor Noise Overload: Saturation by "AI-washed" vendors makes it hard to differentiate true innovation from hype.* Mismatch Between Hype and Practical Needs: Clients need tools that solve today's operational problems — not just futuristic visions disconnected from reality.* Fear of Creeping AI Adoption: Organizations worry about AI capabilities being embedded into systems without visibility or intentionality.* Compliance and Regulation Anxiety: Global and local regulations (like the EU AI Act or pending US laws) create urgency for proven, compliant AI solutions.* Talent Data Readiness: Without clean, structured internal data, even the best AI solutions struggle to deliver meaningful results.These challenges aren't isolated — they reveal the broader realities companies must manage when trying to adopt AI responsibly at scale.Ultimately, client concerns have a hand in AI innovation because they are critical for the adoption of these technologies, shaping how staffing firms and vendors must design, validate, and deploy solutions.There's an inherent tension between the drive for scale and the need for trust, fairness, and operational reality.Christine's experience demonstrates that true innovation in AI for hiring isn't just about introducing new tools — it's about creating resilient, transparent systems that can adapt to real-world complexity. Managing the tension between speed, scale, trust, and fairness represents the path to a bright future. This is a public episode.

When it comes to global financial markets, the only certainty is the likelihood of uncertainty and change. The world is in a period of transformation on multiple levels fueled by AI and technology innovation, shifting economic policies, and infrastructure modernization.

In the 20th episode of "Are We All Clear? Facilitating Security Clearances," host Molly O'Casey is joined by John Metz, a product manager at Agile Defense, and Antonia Tzinova, the head of Holland & Knight's CFIUS and Industrial Security Team. The trio discusses the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the industrial security space and its potential to help companies mitigate risks of Foreign Ownership, Control or Influence (FOCI), insider threats and cybersecurity challenges. Mr. Metz touches on some helpful aspects of AI, such as automated red teaming, supply chain risk management and identifying potential intellectual property (IP) theft. However, he also clarifies that there are more dangerous uses of this technology, in particular deepfakes and autonomous malware development. Overall, the group agrees that AI needs to continue being used and developed and emphasizes that it should be viewed as a tool instead of a human replacement.

Google has one of the most ambitious climate targets in the tech world, but what happens if it falls short of its goals? How does the company balance innovation with environmental responsibility? And can AI really help reduce emissions? This week on Cleaning Up, Bryony Worthington sits down with Kate Brandt, Google's Chief Sustainability Officer, to unpack these critical questions. Brandt offers an insider's view of how one of the world's most influential companies is tackling the climate crisis, from tackling its own emissions to the impact of misinformation on its platform. Brandt has a fascinating background, having spent time in both the Pentagon, and advising President Obama on energy security and sustainability issues. In her current role, she oversees the team working to reduce Google's environmental impact. Google has set itself an ambitious company-wide climate goal of halving their 2019 emissions by 2030 but their latest sustainability report showed that they were off track, as the company has grown and increased their investment in energy-hungry artificial intelligence. As providers of curated information at a global scale, Google has a unique intersection with the climate problem. Primarily, their impact comes from the electricity they buy, but they're also able to guide customers' decisions through the provision of information and through their parent company Alphabet. They've made some pretty bold investments in innovative, disruptive companies, so measuring their impact is arguably more than the sum of their Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Nevertheless, missing a clear target can't be very comfortable. Brandt discusses the company's ambitious yet challenging emissions reduction targets, the transformative potential of AI in environmental solutions, and the innovative clean technologies that might just help us reimagine our energy future. From predicting floods and reducing aircraft emissions, to molten salt batteries and grid optimization technologies, this conversation reveals how Google thinks about innovation and the climate.Leadership Circle:Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.
