AI Search Visibility, Privacy, and Trust: What Brands Need to Know with John Osei-Kwaku
Q: What is the fundamental difference between searching on Google with AI features and using AI engines like ChatGPT or Gemini?

AI, Data, and Trust: How Leaders Can Cut Through the Chaos with Dr Alex Leathard
Q: What should a business do in the next 90 days to build the right AI foundation?

Q: What does vendor agnosticity mean in practice and how do you keep advice evidence-led rather than tool-led?
Vendor agnosticity means detaching from any single manufacturer or tool, collecting facts from the client and possibly their customers, presenting a matrix of requirements and uncertainties, and recommending based on evidence across a range of technologies rather than pushing one vendor.
