The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore it more fully. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode of Compliance into the Weeds, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly examine three recent surveys that examine the real-world impact of AI adoption in corporate environments.

Recording from Alexandria, Virginia, where Matt is attending a conference on ethical governance of AI, Matt and Tom discuss the differing perceptions of AI’s benefits between senior executives and other employees. They explore findings from PWC, Section, and Workday surveys, uncovering a significant gap in AI’s perceived value. The discussion highlights the challenges of integrating AI, the significant rework required by employees, and the struggle to build trust in AI tools.
