A University of Kentucky employee won a religious exemption from using AI at work. Ashley's take: mandate outcomes, not tools, and put an accommodation process in your AI policy now. Anthropic launched tools that show companies what their AI spend is buying. Her take: before you roll out any AI tool, write down how long the task takes, what it costs, and how often it's redone. In leaked audio, Flock's CEO told police the backlash against his company isn't real. Her take: trust is the real product, so treat customer pushback on data as feedback, not an attack. And Anthropic filed to go public. Her take: the IPO isn't the story, stability is, so avoid locked-in contracts and keep your workflows portable. AI news you should know about, in under 10 minutes.
