  • An EY podcast? Haha

    I imagine this is just a bunch of people on overblown salaries saying a lot of big impressive sounding words that mean nothing. EY is all smoke and mirrors. Scratch the surface and there is nothing there.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Government Risk Radar: Mitigating digital risk in an ever-changing world
Q: Thomas, what are the core reasons the public sector struggles to keep up with private sector speed, and are there unique factors at play in government structures?
The core issue is decision fatigue and the inherent complexity of multi-layer governance, where different levels of government can adopt varying IT platforms, creating fragmentation that slows scale and adoption.
AI Pioneers: How the UK government used AI to solve problems and gain trust
Q: What is the biggest effect of AI over the next 10 years?
There is no confident forecast; experts often mispredict, so the best approach is to focus on solving real problems with transparent, auditable AI deployments and to measure impact against clearly defined citizen-centered outcomes.
AI Pioneers: How the UK government used AI to solve problems and gain trust
Q: How can governments drive AI at a whole-of-government level and what value can be expected?
Progress hinges on data normalization and standard platforms; immediate benefits come from productivity improvements through AI-enabled workflows, while long-term value requires sustained data investments and cross-department collaboration.
AI Pioneers: How the UK government used AI to solve problems and gain trust
Q: What challenges did you face when persuading government to adopt new technologies and how did you overcome them?
The main challenges were cultural resistance, entrenched ways of working, and skepticism about AI's value; we focused on building an evidence base, demonstrating concrete use cases, and aligning AI initiatives with real policy needs rather than marketing AI as a universal fix.
Government Risk Radar: Why governments need to act fast and collaborate to address climate risks
Q: What can governments do to rebuild trust amid concerns over decarbonization costs and effectiveness?
Governments should focus on education and awareness, incentives for green finance, long-term predictable policies, and robust reporting and accountability mechanisms to demonstrate progress and outcomes.
