Yes, you’re using AI, but are you using it ethically and in a way that builds trust?

In this episode, you get a masterclass on ethical technology from James French, the founder of Ludulluu, a pioneering AI governance platform. 

James shares his fascinating journey from leading high-stakes finance deals in West Africa, to transforming a U.S. museum's board through stakeholder-led governance, to now building the trust layer missing in today’s AI revolution.
