AI Will Replace You If Nobody Governs It | Puneet Matai | The Listening Platform
from TheListeningPlatform Podcast · host Guru
What happens when organisations deploy AI with no governance, no oversight, and nobody accountable?Puneet Matai has been inside that room.With over 20 years leading data and AI initiatives across global banks and technology companies — from Santander Bank to UOB, now at Temus (Singapore's Temasek-backed digital transformation firm) — and as a faculty member at Columbia University, Puneet has seen firsthand what happens when AI moves faster than the rules meant to control it.He holds a global patent. He has advised C-suite executives across continents. And he has one belief that sets him apart from almost every AI voice out there:"I don't call it Artificial Intelligence. I call it Augmented Intelligence."In this episode, we go deep on:→ Why he refuses to use the term "Artificial Intelligence" — and why that reframe changes everything→ The 3 AI risks every company is quietly ignoring: bias, explainability, and data drift → How to build a career in Data & AI Governance before everyone else figures out it's the hottest skill in tech→ Why "Human + AI" will always beat full automation — and what that means for your job→ What 20 years in the trenches taught him that no AI course will ever coverThis is a conversation about power, ethics, accountability — and what real leadership looks like when the stakes are this high.─────────────────────────────🎙️ GUESTPuneet MataiData & AI Governance Leader | Temus, SingaporeFormer: Rio Tinto Commercial, UOB, Santander BankFaculty, Columbia University | Global Patent HolderLinkedIn → linkedin.com/in/puneet-mataiThe Listening Platform - We are Coaches, who deal with Clients from various spectrum.
