Author: Maryrose Lyons June 15, 2025 Duration: 30:11

From cyber law to Kabul, from the UN to Brussels, Caro Robson has been at the frontline of AI regulation for two decades. In this episode, she joins Maryrose Lyons of the AI Institute to dissect the global power struggle over AI.


They talk DeepSeek, Deep State, and the deep flaws in Europe’s AI readiness. Caro breaks down the delays in the EU AI Act, the surprising innovation culture in China, and the human cost behind every clever chatbot.


Expect a smart, clear-eyed take on ethics, enforcement, and why Malta is outperforming Ireland on AI preparation.

Maryrose Lyons brings her experience from the AI Institute to Chatting GPT, a podcast that digs into the practical realities of artificial intelligence. Instead of theoretical discussions, these are grounded conversations with the directors, founders, and strategists who are implementing AI solutions right now. You’ll hear from people who have moved their organizations beyond pilot projects into genuine transformation, sharing what worked, what didn’t, and why. The focus often lands on the built environment-exploring how AI is actively reshaping design processes, construction methodologies, and facility management from the studio to the job site. This series is built on the premise that the most valuable lessons come from those with hands-on experience. Each episode unpacks the human decisions behind the technology, offering tangible insights for professionals in technology, business, and education who are navigating their own courses. By listening to this podcast, you gain access to a rare dialogue about applied intelligence, where the conversation is always rooted in real-world execution and impact.
