Maryrose Lyons and Barry Scannell on the EU AI Act

This week, Maryrose Lyons chats with Barry Scannell, Partner at William Fry, about the human side of AI compliance and why the EU AI Act is something every organisation should pay attention to. Barry explains how this new legislation impacts the way we work with AI, comparing it to "GDPR on steroids," and breaks down the key risks and opportunities involved.

Together, Barry and Maryrose discuss why AI literacy is essential for teams, the importance of understanding high-risk AI systems, and the practical steps organisations can take to stay ahead. They also explore how AI regulation isn't just about avoiding fines—it's about creating a future where AI is used responsibly and ethically.

Tune in for a lively conversation full of actionable insights on how to approach AI compliance, protect your organisation, and leverage responsible AI as a competitive advantage.
