Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Taming the Wild West of AI: Otivo’s Safe Path to Digital Advice
Q: What makes Ask Ativo different from generic AI tools for financial advice?
Ask Ativo is grounded in the user's personal data, regulated by internal AI compliance tools, and designed to deliver scenario-based advice with guardrails and human oversight when necessary, ensuring the guidance is compliant and actionable.
Taming the Wild West of AI: Otivo’s Safe Path to Digital Advice
Q: How did Ativo evolve from a traditional planning background to a digital-first platform?
Paul explains that the company started with the belief that advice can be digitally generated, focusing on compliance and a client-led approach, then expanded to a conversational AI interface with guardrails to make advice more accessible and relevant to individuals' situations.
Live Presentation: Peter Worn on the AI Hype Cycle Sweeping Financial Services
Q: You talked about security and the difference between Copilot and ChatGPT—what's the simplest rule to keep client data safe?

Australia's Financial Literacy Crisis - Marcus Field - IRESS
Q: How did you end up at Iress and what has that journey been like?
Marcus described an accidental path via Evolution Media and No More Practice, CPD content, and being acquired by OneView, which later became part of Iress, shaping a long-running involvement in financial education and digital advice.
Australia's Financial Literacy Crisis - Marcus Field - IRESS
Q: What was the strategy behind the financial literacy research and its national implications?
The research aimed to map where the advice industry is headed by 2030, highlight the unmet needs (12 million Australians), and identify core opportunities and barriers, including the role of education, regulation, and workplace interventions.
