The conversation
The real-world challenges of AI governance, privacy and secure systems design — technical depth, policy thinking and economic insight on one of the most urgent issues in tech.
In this episode, you’ll learn
- Why Noah built a five-layer AI Governance Stack and which layer he believes the industry is dangerously overlooking
- Whether “regulation can’t keep up” is a real problem or a convenient excuse for companies that do not want oversight
- How he thinks through the tension between moving fast, protecting privacy, and building AI products responsibly
- What advising real clients taught him about AI governance that writing a book alone never could
- Why he built a career across consulting, research, education, and policy instead of staying in just one lane
- How he would design AI regulation from the ground up
