In this episode, we are joined by Sam Brazier-Hollins, Head of Technical Consulting at Fujitsu (also Annie-Mei's former manager). We got so into the convo straight away that we forgot to get Sam to actually introduce himself properly. But you can look him up on LinkedIn.
We discuss Sam's recent work trip to New Zealand for the Digital Workplace Conference discussing Microsoft 365 security and AI adoption alongside change management. Sam also reflects on balancing cybersecurity work with having a three-month-old daughter.
Not sure what data you should be sharing with AI? This episode covers everything about privacy issues, data retention, bias, hallucinations and bots chatting to other bots.
We discuss when AI is useful (eg. taking meeting notes) and when it’s not.
If you’re in the consulting space, you’ll find this episode useful for providing tips on how to successfully roll out Microsoft Copilot. Sam is a Microsoft MVP, with the ‘P’ standing for Professional.
We also talk about the importance of taking time offline in an age where it feels like we’re constantly online. Sam and Annie-Mei love to cook, while Anika loves reading tarot cards. Can you tell we're all 30-something millennials?
