Hi, this is our podcast talking about AI, data and information law. We are Mona and Will, two lawyers who are nerds about new technology and the laws around it. We put this podcast together to share our enthusiasm for what is sometimes seen as a fairly dry topic! We’re mainly focusing on the emerging area of AI governance at the moment. We want to help people who are developing, adopting or otherwise affected by the technology to understand what rules currently apply to its use, and what’s coming down the legislative tracks. Want us to talk about anything specific? Get in touch: you can reach us via social media (@aspoonfulofdata) or by e-mail (spoonfulofdata@proton.me). Disclaimer: yes, we’re lawyers. No, this podcast isn’t intended as legal advice - it’s provided for general information only, and all opinions expressed are our own, not our firm’s.

After introducing our theme of AI Governance last week, Will and Mona get back to basics this week with a discussion of what we mean when we talk about AI. Will thought we'd be starting the discussion in the Fifties, but he was quite a long way out!

Can you believe Mona has never heard of Data Protection Day? Neither could Will. We weren't supposed to have an episode out until next week, but here's a sneaky bonus prequel to introduce us and talk about this most important day in the data protection lawyers' calendar!

Welcome to our Podcast!
Thanks for listening to our new podcast, A Spoonful of Data. We're Mona and Will, two lawyers and tech nerds who really enjoy talking about data, information and AI law - we're eager to share our enthusiasm with the world!
Initially we're planning to focus particularly on the (relative) new kid on the block - AI. If you're working with it, as a customer, a developer, or even just as someone impact by the use of the technology, we hope to have some interesting insights to share. Please follow along - the plan is to have short (c. 15 minute) weekly episodes, touching on a different aspect of AI regulation and governance with each episode. If there's any issue around AI that's bothering you, if you want us to focus on a particular topic, or even if you just want to send us feedback you can find us on the main social media channels as @aspoonfulofdata, or you can e-mail us: spoonfulofdata[at]proton[dot]me.
