Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech', the podcast that brings you the latest insights from the intersection of law and artificial intelligence. Today, the legal profession stands at a pivotal juncture as artificial intelligence rapidly redefines its landscape. From streamlining intricate workflows to boosting productivity and enhancing client support for small to mid-sized businesses, generative AI is providing a compelling opportunity to level the playing field, even with limited resources. However, this transformative power comes with crucial considerations: firms must address the growing risks of AI 'hallucinations' in legal filings and the significant compliance concerns surrounding data security and confidentiality in AI interactions, where traditional attorney-client privilege may not apply.

This deep dive into organizational risk management provides finance leaders with a strategic framework for protecting company assets and ensuring financial integrity.At its core, proper risk assessment requires a cross-functional approach. By bringing together expertise from legal, treasury, accounting, and financial planning departments, organizations can conduct robust SWOT analyses that reveal potential vulnerabilities. The process continues with identifying key metrics related to areas of concern, scoring and ranking these metrics, and evaluating the effectiveness of existing internal controls. This methodical approach ensures that audit resources focus first on the areas presenting the greatest risk to financial health and operational integrity.The significance of this process cannot be overstated. By systematically identifying weaknesses in internal controls and operational policies, finance leaders can build audit plans that address real vulnerabilities rather than perceived threats. This validation process provides confidence to all stakeholders—from employees and suppliers to creditors and potential investors—that the organization maintains financial stability and follows a viable strategic course. Whether you're managing compliance risk, credit and liquidity challenges, market uncertainties, or operational vulnerabilities, a well-designed risk assessment protocol serves as your first line of defense against financial irregularities. Take time today to evaluate your risk management system and ensure it effectively engages internal experts to assess your organization's most pressing risks. Your company's long-term success may depend on it.Episode outline:Analyzing various risk metrics will help identify areas with the weakest internal controls, Why financial risk is the foundation of the audit plan, andProperly integrating risk into what you audit.  Please connect with me on:1.

In today's episode, we're spotlighting the dental hygienist as more than just a provider of cleanings—but as a true prevention specialist. That means shifting from a reactive mindset to a proactive one: taking the time to perform comprehensive risk assessments on almost every patient. Why? Because identifying risk factors early is the key to building targeted, effective treatment plans that can help stop disease before it leads into much more serious and expensive problems. Our guest is Alicia Murria, a RDH with a masters degree in dental hygiene. She is a member of the Hygiene Faculty with Align Technology, Associate Hygiene Productivity Coach with Inspired Hygiene, and alumni at Forsyth School of Dental Hygiene.

Welcome to August's disco podcast, featuring brand new tracks from Dave Leatherman, HP Vince and Bruce Nolan, Luca Martini and Nina Moon, Mattei & Omich and Re-Tide, George Kelly, Diskobar, Risk Assessment, OKPLUS and Emel, and Soultizer and Soneec,  plus some re-treads of classic disco bangers from the 1970s and 1980s like Sharon Redd, Delegation, Geraldine Hunt, Patti Jo, and Jean Carn,.  All mixed with love here in London.Here's the full track list1 | Dave Leatherman, HP Vince, Bruce Nolan | Disco invasion2 | Luca Martini, Nina Moon | Desire (Extended Mix)3 | Mattei & Omich, Re-Tide | Dancin' back to me (Extended Mix)4 | Sharon Redd, J Kriv | Handle it5 | Geraldine Hunt | Can't fake the feeling (Butterfunk Edit)6 | George Kelly | You're nasty7 | Diskobar | Keep on dancin' (Original Mix)8 | Jean Carn | Love don't come easy (Pied Piper Reboot Of Tom Moulton Mix)9 | Risk Assessment | Trust issues10 | OKPLUS featuring Emel | Get on up (Extended Mix)11 | Delegation, Disco Tech | You & I (Disco Tech rework)12 | Soultizer, Soneec | You belong to me (Original Mix)13 | Patti Jo | Make me believe in you (Jack Tennis Edit)Thanks for listening. If you enjoyed this mix, please share the disco love with all your friends and send them a link to the podcast. And if you can, please leave a review.  THANK YOU.You can also enjoy the Spotify playlist, but please note that some of the tracks or versions may not be available on that platform.I've been a DJ in various forms including radio since I was a teenager, and I always used to say it was the best job in the world, getting to listen to all kinds of music. I think I've also been a frustrated musical artist of some kind: I wanted to engineer and produce and have trained on various DAWs. My musicianship has been limited though - I can't really sing and I'm a rudimentary keyboard player - but I can write and originally trained as a journalist after leaving school.  So I've been putting whatever writing skills I may possess to the test by writing lyrics and using them as prompts for AI music with some fascinating results. In fact I've spent the past month or so working on songs. At the time of writing I have an album of material completed, with the first track - a single - scheduled for release on 29th August on all the major platforms including Spotify and Apple Music. Another single is scheduled to come out about a month later with the album pencilled for release on Friday 10th October. One of the surprises for me was the style of music I've ended up creating - not my usual dance music at all. The album does contain tracks that will get you moving or set your toes tapping, but there's an equal number of singer/songwriter tracks that I hope are more contemplative. The whole song writing process was incredibly cathartic, in fact I'd go so far as to say, it was like therapy.  I don't have my artist page live on Spotify yet, but as soon as it is, and there's a pre-release link, I will include it here. It's a scary thing sharing in song all your previously private thoughts and experiences, so please don't be too harsh on me. And as importantly, why not have a go yourself.  I hope you enjoy it. Thank you. XX F*

Dr. Steven Seyedin presents an overview of PSA recurrence and risk factors for assessment. A PSA test is a blood test used to detect prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in the blood, which can be elevated in cases of prostate cancer and is a common screening tool. He explains how PET, CT, and MRI work, highlighting the precision of PSA PET in detecting cancer spread by targeting PSA proteins on tumor cells. This imaging method combines PET and CT to reveal metastatic disease with greater accuracy than traditional scans. Seyedin addresses the strengths of different imaging agents, emphasizing that access, not brand, is key. He also cautions against false positives, especially in bone lesions, which can mislead diagnosis. By improving staging accuracy, PSA PET supports better treatment planning and outcomes. Ongoing studies explore its use earlier in diagnosis, potentially replacing biopsy or MRI in select cases. Series: "Prostate Cancer Patient Conference" [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 40805]

What future risk does quantum computing pose to Bitcoin, and how can we think of those risks in terms of their potential geopolitical outcomes?In this episode of Bitcoin Policy Hour, Matthew Pines, Zack Shapiro and Zack Cohen recap the "Crypto Week" legislative wins, followed by a deep dive on the "Q-Day" threat—the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to threaten Bitcoin's core cryptographic security.This leads to the question: with the ability to undermine Satoshi's coins, could a quantum breakthrough trigger a global monetary crisis, and ignite a new geopolitical arms race between the U.S., China, and tech giants?As Bitcoin becomes embedded in 401(k)s, sovereign reserves, and global ETFs, the risks—and consequences—go far beyond crypto and deep into the political economy of capital, social structure and geoeconomic competition.⭐ Join Bitcoin Magazine @ Bitcoin Asia 2025, Aug. 28-29 in Hong Kong!

Send us a textEpisode 140: Financial integrity isn't just about compliance—it's the cornerstone of organizational trust and success. In this thought-provoking exploration of the audit function, we dive deep into how forward-thinking CFOs are transforming what's often viewed as a necessary evil into a strategic advantage.The most effective finance leaders understand that auditing isn't about hunting for mistakes or satisfying regulators; it's about building a foundation of accuracy that enables better decision-making at every level. We examine three essential pillars that should guide your audit strategy: fostering a team with unwavering professional ethics, ensuring meticulous financial accuracy in reporting, and implementing robust internal controls to safeguard company assets. These elements aren't just technical requirements—they're competitive advantages in a business landscape where trust is increasingly valuable currency.Risk assessment emerges as a critical companion to effective auditing. By creating and continuously updating a comprehensive risk matrix, the CFO can ensure audit resources are deployed where they'll have the greatest impact. Whether you lead a small private company or a publicly traded enterprise, this strategic approach to audit planning transforms compliance activities into valuable insights that support long-term business goals. Remember, a truly effective audit function should regularly uncover areas for improvement—if your auditors never find issues, it's time to review your testing processes. The journey toward financial excellence begins with embracing auditing not as a basement-dwelling afterthought but as a spotlight illuminating your path to organizational integrity and sustainable success.Episode outline:Why is a solid audit plan essential for your organization,Measuring and assessing organizational risk, andHow the CFO shapes the audit plan to support long term strategy. Please connect with me on:1.

Send us a textReady to navigate the complex world of AI governance without getting lost in legal jargon? This episode delivers a masterclass in building ethical AI frameworks that actually work for your business. Global tech lawyer and fractional general counsel Gayle Gorvett breaks down the essential guardrails every company needs before diving headfirst into AI implementation. From her work with Duke University's AI working groups to real-world enterprise applications, Gayle reveals why treating AI like the "shiny new toy" without proper governance is a recipe for disaster. Whether you're protecting customer data or safeguarding your company's future, this customer success playbook episode provides the foundational knowledge to approach AI adoption with confidence and compliance.Detailed AnalysisThe AI revolution isn't just changing how we work—it's fundamentally reshaping the legal and ethical landscape of business operations. Gayle Gorvett's expertise in AI governance comes at a crucial time when companies are rushing to implement AI solutions without adequate safeguards. Her comparison of current AI hype to the blockchain frenzy of a decade ago serves as a sobering reminder that sustainable innovation requires thoughtful planning, not just technological enthusiasm.The multidisciplinary approach Gayle advocates represents a significant shift in how businesses should structure their AI initiatives. Gone are the days when technology decisions could be made in isolation. Modern AI governance demands collaboration between business functions, technical teams, and legal counsel—creating a new paradigm for cross-functional leadership in customer success organizations.For customer success professionals, the implications extend far beyond internal operations. When AI systems interact with customer data, handle support tickets, or predict customer behavior, the governance framework becomes a direct reflection of your company's commitment to customer trust. Gayle's emphasis on informing customers about AI usage highlights how transparency has evolved from a nice-to-have to a business imperative.The Duke AI Risk Framework and NIST guidelines she references provide actionable starting points for organizations feeling overwhelmed by the governance challenge. These resources democratize access to enterprise-level AI governance, making sophisticated risk assessment accessible to companies of all sizes. This democratization aligns perfectly with the customer success playbook philosophy of scalable, repeatable processes that drive consistent outcomes.Perhaps most importantly, Gayle's 26-year perspective in technology law offers historical context that many AI discussions lack. Her experience through previous technology waves—from the early internet boom to blockchain—provides valuable pattern recognition for identifying sustainable AI strategies versus fleeting trends. This wisdom becomes particularly relevant for customer success leaders who must balance innovation with the reliability their customers depend on.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at htKevin's offeringPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

Welcome to the second episode in our series about community-level wildfire resilience, supported by Fire Aside! We spoke with Fire Aside CEO and co-founder Jason Brooks about how Fire Aside—a home assessment platform that allows agencies to have direct 1:1 engagement with residents on resilience actions they can take—fits into bigger picture policy, data and decision making around community wildfire resilience in California and beyond.Fire Aside was developed in Marin County, CA alongside the county fire department there, a partnership that was spurred by Jason's own interest in improving the wildfire resilience of his own property and not knowing exactly where to start. That was in 2020—now, Fire Aside is being used by over 100 departments in nine states to increase the efficiency of their home assessment processes and improve engagement with residents who want to improve their defensible space and home hardening. It's become clear that increasing resilience actions at the neighborhood level, rather than just the homeowner level, is the best way to meaningfully reduce risk in the WUI, where fires often spread home to home rather than via vegetation; this scale piece is a huge part of what Fire Aside does, and is what makes it such a compelling technology in an era of urban conflagrations like those in LA this winter (or Boulder, Lahaina, Paradise etc before). Jason and I spoke about the impetus for developing the platform, as well as how it can potentially be utilized to help inform decision making and even funding needs at the city or county level. Down the road, the data procured from Fire Aside may even be useful in informing state policy or other big picture decision making. (Disclaimer: Fire Aside does not own any of the data that is compiled through the app/platform. Residents and departments using the platform own this data.)We appreciate Fire Aside's work and their support of this series on community resilience—if you or your organization are responsible for wildfire risk assessments, we really can't recommend this technology enough. A few action items!Consider following Fire Aside on Linkedin. Check out some Fire Aside testimonials on Youtube. Slightly unrelated but please consider supporting justice and exoneration for firefighter Brian "Hakiym" Simpson.
