This fear is based in reality. For instance, Google's AI advised people to add glue to pizza,Forbes careers contributor Jack Kelly noted. And Air Canada's AI chatbot made up a refund policy for a customer — and a Canadian tribunal forced the airline to issue a real refund based on its AI-invented policy, Wired reported.This inconsistent battle has significant implications for business. Of 200 to 300 generative AI experiments the typical large company is undertaking, a mere 10 to 15 have been rolled out internally, and perhaps one or two have been released to customers.  Babson College Associate Professor of Management PracticePeter S.

This week on Under the Radar with Callie Crossley: A federal judge in Springfield rules in favor of protecting students' gender identities at Ludlow Public Schools. Plus, legislators from Tennessee to Idaho are considering bans on drag shows. And while Pope Francis has expressed support for the LGBTQ community in the past, in perhaps his strongest statement yet, he says homosexuality is not a crime. Those stories and more on our LGBTQ News Roundtable. GUESTS Sue O'Connell, commentator and host at New England Cable News, NBC 10 Boston and NBC LX; co-publisher of Bay Windows and The South End News Janson Wu, executive director of GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders, or GLAD Grace Sterling Stowell, executive director of the Boston Alliance of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer Youth, or BAGLY

Immediately after the Supreme Court's ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade, LGBTQ rights advocates sounded the alarm, saying the conservative court “won't stop at Roe.” At least one justice — Clarence Thomas — has confirmed their fears, with his statement that the high court “should reconsider” its decision on Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Meanwhile, vandals smeared homophobic graffiti on the exterior of The Pryde, the LGBTQ senior housing complex under construction in Boston. And Hollywood's latest rom-com is set among a group of vacationing gay men. “Fire Island” offers a fresh take on a summer romance which celebrates queerness. Those stories and more on our LGBTQ News Roundtable. GUESTS: Grace Sterling Stowell, executive director of the Boston Alliance of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Youth, or BAGLY Janson Wu, executive director of GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders, or GLAD Sue O'Connell, commentator and host at New England Cable News, NBC 10 Boston and NBC LX; co-publisher of Bay Windows and The South End News

Tiffani Faison Chef and Restaurateur of Big Heart HospitalitySweet Cheeks Q, Fool's Errand, Orfano, Dive Bar, Tenderoni's and Bubble Bath Chef and Restaurateur Tiffani Faison of Sweet Cheeks Q, Fool's Errand, Orfano, Dive Bar, Tenderoni's and Bubble Bath, has made a name for herself nationwide for her dynamic personality, culinary prowess and fierce work ethic. Under Big Heart Hospitality, her Boston based restaurant group, she creates restaurants that are warm, inspired and instantly loveable. Tiffani began her career working under world renowned chefs as Daniel Boulud, Alain Ducasse and Todd English. Early in her career she was cast on the inaugural season of Bravo's Top Chef, and placed as runner-up. From there she worked in prestigious kitchens in Nantucket, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and San Francisco before returning to Boston in 2010 to become Executive Chef of Southern Italian restaurant, Rocca Kitchen & Bar. After transforming Rocca into a critically acclaimed dining destination with a three star review from The Boston Globe, Tiffani set her sights on creating her own restaurant.She opened Sweet Cheeks Q in 2011 during the very early stages of Fenway's revitalization. Drawing inspiration from her love of Southern barbecue and extensive travels in Texas, Sweet Cheeks became an instant hit for its laidback Southern charm and addictive offerings: Heritage Pulled Pork, Brisket, Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Biscuits with Honey Butter. Shortly after opening, Sweet Cheeks garnered a three-star review from The Boston Globe, and it has been awarded “Boston's Best Barbecue” numerous times by Boston magazine. Nationally, Forbes deemed Sweet Cheeks' biscuits the “Best Biscuits in the World.” Most importantly, Tiffani created a restaurant that is both a neighborhood gem and a dining destination attracting guests from near and far who are simply seeking the city's best ‘cue. In December 2015, Tiffani expanded on her culinary skills, creativity and business savvy with a new restaurant: Tiger Mama, found on the same block as Sweet Cheeks in the Fenway. The seeds of Tiger Mama formed during Tiffani's travels to Southeast Asia and the restaurant set a new benchmark, both for her career and Boston's dining culture. In its April 19, 2016 review, The Boston Globe agreed, calling Tiger Mama “a spectacular restaurant” with dishes that you'll “take to the grave” and hospitality that “feels generous and natural.” In October 2021, Faison closed Tiger Mama to make way for an exciting new restaurant concept she's excited to debut in the same space sometime in 2022. In August 2018, Tiffani opened her third restaurant – an adult snack bar called Fool's Errand. With an irreverent menu and intimate atmosphere, Fool's Errand neighbors Sweet Cheeks Q and on Boylston Street in Boston's Fenway. The snack forward menu works with top quality, luxurious ingredients to deliver irreverent bites. Classic American cocktails, done beautifully and with care, join a rotating list of internationally sourced wines and aperitifs. In August 2019, Tiffani opened her fourth restaurant, Orfano, an Italian American restaurant, also located in the Fenway. Guided by the whimsy of “sorry Nonna,” Orfano is Tiffani's most upscale restaurant to date featuring next level Italian – delicious, elegant, humorous, and distinctly different than anything else in Boston. Food & Wine included Orfano as one of its “19 Biggest Restaurant Openings of 2019” while Boston Globe Magazine named Orfano as one of the “best new restaurants in Boston”. In its Feb 2020 review of the restaurant, Boston Magazine proclaimed Orfano “a triumphant modern take on Italian”. In March 2022, Tiffani will open three distinct concepts within High Street Place, the much anticipated food hall in downtown Boston: Dive Bar, a raw bar featuring a menu of both northern and southern Atlantic classics, Tenderoni's, an old school pizza and grinder shop, and Bubble Bath, a Champagne and wine bar that cheekily pairs its pours with gourmet hot dogs and popcorn. Marking her many culinary achievements, the James Beard Foundation nominated Tiffani as “Best Chef: Northeast” three years in a row (2018, 2019 & 2020) and Boston magazine awarded her “Best Chef: General Excellence” in its 2016 “Best of Boston” issue. In November 2016 and 2019, the Boston Business Journal named Tiffani to its “Power 50” list, celebrating individuals from Boston's multiple industries and professions who are making a difference in their business communities. In December 2019, The Boston Globe named Big Heart Hospitality as “Restaurateurs of the Year” andEater named Tiffani “Empire Builder of the Year.”Outside of the kitchen, Tiffani is currently a judge on Food Network's Chopped. After placing as runner-up on Top ChefSeason One, Faison later competed on Top Chef All-Stars and Top Chef Duels. She's also previously been a judge on Food Network's Chopped Grill Masters and Cooking Channel's Fire Masters. Tiffani has made frequent appearances on NBC's TODAY, CBS This Morning, PBS's Simply Ming and was the host of “Tiffani's Taste” and “Food Truck Fridays” on New England Cable News. She has been a contributing chef to numerous cookbooks and has been widely featured in such national outlets as People, SELF, Entertainment Weekly, Sports Illustrated and Food & Wine. She also currently serves on the Board of Directors for Women Chefs & Restaurateurs and also BAGLY (Boston Alliance of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer Youth). In September 2019, Tiffani was appointed to The Commonwealth of Massachusetts' Restaurant Promotion Commission for her commitment to the states restaurant business as a whole. Tiffani lives in Boston and is a tireless advocate of LGBTQ human rights.

This week on Relationships 2.0 my guest is Arthur Ciaramicoli PhD author of The Stress Solution. We discuss the stressful period we all endured during the Presidential campaign and election, as well as the challenges we continue to face individually and collectively. Many relationships are strained and need to be healed. So, I thought it would be a good time to discuss the importance of compassion, character and values. We need to find ways to come together rather than grow further apart. My guest: Arthur P.
