Most business owners can tell you which AI tools they are using. Far fewer can tell you who is on the hook if one of those tools gets something wrong. Emily Sahhar spends her working life in that gap, and in this episode she closes it.

If you need advice on how AI affects your legal obligations, speak with a qualified legal professional. About The Guest Emily Sahhar is a Partner at Cornwalls, where she works with business owners and teams to figure out where their real exposure sits once AI tools enter the picture. In her experience the risk is rarely the tool itself, it is the absence of a policy or a plan for when something goes wrong.

Welcome to Byte Size, the AI podcast for small business owners who want practical tech advice without the overwhelming jargon. Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ We've all heard it. AI will steal your job, it's too expensive, or it's only for big corporations. But what if most of what you've heard about AI is wrong? This episode is all about busting the biggest myths that are holding small businesses back from using technology that could transform how they operate.​ Lisa and Matt kick things off by tackling some common misconceptions that have nothing to do with job displacement. Like the myth that AI can think like humans (it can't—it's pattern recognition, not consciousness). Or that AI will take over the world (the real issue is how humans design and govern the technology, not robot domination). They also address the fear that using AI means losing authenticity (reality: AI handles repetitive work so you can focus on human connection, storytelling, and creativity), and the concern that trusting AI with customer data is risky (with proper privacy settings and reputable platforms, AI can be used safely—the risk comes from poor human practices, not the tech itself).​ Then Andrew Ridley joins the conversation. As Intel's Enterprise and Government Director for Australia and New Zealand, Andrew has spent over 20 years helping businesses cut through tech hype to find solutions that actually work. His expertise spans cloud computing, analytics, AI, IoT, 5G, and edge computing, and he's passionate about helping businesses thrive in the digital age through strategic, data-driven initiatives. Andrew shares what Intel is seeing on the ground with Australian businesses making the AI leap, and he's here to separate fact from fiction. About HP AI PCs and EliteBook Ultra​ You don't need a data scientist to use AI. You just need the right PC. HP AI PCs with Intel Core Ultra processors bring affordable, practical AI right to your desk. Easy, accessible, and made for small business.

Welcome to Byte Size, the AI podcast for small business owners who want practical tech advice without the overwhelming jargon. Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ AI is changing the way we work, but what does that actually look like for small business teams? Are robots really coming for our jobs, or are they just helping us hustle smarter? If you've ever asked yourself "Will AI replace my staff?", you're not alone. It's the elephant in the room, and this episode tackles it head-on.​ The future of work isn't all bots and code. It's people, creativity, and smart use of technology working together. Lisa and Matt explore how small business owners can blend technology with talent to build stronger, more productive teams. They discuss how AI enhances rather than replaces jobs, empowering teams to work smarter and take on more clients without layoffs. ​ Then Grace Brown joins the conversation. At just 25 years old, Grace is the founder and CEO of Andromeda, a company building Abi, a socially intelligent humanoid companion robot for aged care facilities. Grace recently closed a $23 million Series A funding round, valuing her company at $100 million. Abi combats loneliness in aged care through personalised conversation and autonomous navigation, but the question everyone asks is: does this robot replace human staff or enhance their capabilities?​ This episode is packed with insights about the human side of the AI revolution. You'll learn about the hybrid model that blends human creativity and empathy with AI efficiency, practical frameworks for deciding which tasks to automate or assist, and why building adaptable, continuously learning teams is the key to thriving in an AI-driven workplace.​ About HP AI PCs and EliteBook Ultra​ Everyone's talking about AI like it's some far-off future. But HP and Intel have already baked it into your PC. Faster workflows, smarter security, even better battery life. No crystal ball needed. Just an HP AI PC, powered by Intel Core Ultra processors.

Welcome to Byte Size, the AI podcast for small business owners who want practical tech advice without the overwhelming jargon. Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ Every week, business owners ask the same questions: "Do I need to buy new computers to use AI?" and "My laptop is three years old, will ChatGPT even work?" The tech industry loves to push upgrades, but what do you actually need to make AI work for your business without frustration or wasted money?​ This episode cuts through the marketing hype and tells you exactly what hardware you need for AI, why it matters, and when investing in better tech actually pays for itself. Lisa and Matt kick things off by tackling the most common misconceptions. Many business owners think AI will magically solve their productivity problems, but poor hardware can turn promising AI tools into laggy, unreliable nightmares that waste more time than they save.​ Then Aman Sangar joins the conversation. As HP's Category Manager with over 15 years of experience in product lifecycle management and business development, Aman knows what actually works in the real world. He addresses the elephant in the room: can a three-year-old laptop really handle modern AI tools, or are we setting people up for frustration? He breaks down the real-world performance differences between budget laptops and AI-optimised devices, explains what defines an AI PC (since HP's research shows 4 in 5 SMBs don't fully understand what they are), and identifies the hardware bottlenecks that kill AI performance.​ About HP EliteBook Ultra and the Windows 11 SMB Study​ What's better than a sleek laptop that's light enough to go anywhere? One that's smart enough to keep up. The HP EliteBook Ultra G1i 14, powered by Intel Core Ultra, helps you work faster, safer, and smarter. Big power, small footprint.

Welcome to Byte Size, the AI podcast for small business owners who want practical tech advice without the overwhelming jargon. Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ If you've ever felt like you're competing against businesses with massive marketing budgets and full creative teams, this episode is your equaliser. AI is fundamentally changing what's possible for small business marketing, and we're showing you exactly how to use it.​ The old reality meant hiring agencies, designers, copywriters, and analysts if you wanted professional marketing. The new reality? One person with the right AI tools can produce content that rivals what national brands are putting out. Your local bakery can now create social media posts, email campaigns, and video content that looks like it came from a $10,000-a-month agency.​ Lisa and Matt break down how digital marketing (including everything from SEO, content creation and paid ads) is and will be completely turned on its head.​ About HP AI PCs and EliteBook Ultra​ Ever feel like your laptop takes longer to think than you do? That's because you don't have AI built in. HP AI PCs, powered by Intel Core Ultra processors, work smarter, predict what you need, and keep up with your brain. Less lag, more flow.

Welcome to Byte Size, the AI podcast for small business owners who want practical tech advice without the overwhelming jargon. Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ AI ethics might sound like something only massive tech companies need to worry about, but the truth is every business using AI tools needs to think about this stuff. One biased decision shared on social media can undo years of trust-building. One automated system that treats customers differently based on how they write or where they live can open you up to legal risk you never saw coming.​ This episode tackles the side of AI that most business owners don't think about until it's too late: how to use it responsibly. Lisa and Matt kick things off by exposing the hidden bias problem. Lisa shares her own experiments with AI, like asking it to suggest salaries for the same job description with only the gender changed. The results were eye-opening. Matt adds his own examples of bias he's encountered, and together they walk through the common business scenarios where bias sneaks in, from hiring and HR to customer service, marketing, and sales.​ Then Tracey Spicer joins the conversation. She's an award-winning journalist, author of "Man-Made," and one of Australia's leading voices on technology and social justice. Tracey doesn't do corporate jargon. She gives it to you straight. Why should a local cafe or accounting firm care about AI ethics? What does bias actually look like in everyday business use? How can you evaluate an AI tool when you're not technical? And when a business makes a mistake with AI, how do you handle it without losing customer trust?​ About HP AI PCs​ Remember when "the cloud" sounded mysterious? Now AI feels the same way. But HP AI PCs, powered by Intel Core Ultra processors, make it simple, built right into your laptop. No hype, just tools that actually work for your business. AI isn't just for Silicon Valley. It's for Aussie small businesses too. HP AI PCs powered by Intel Core Ultra processors help you work smarter, collaborate better, and grow faster. Real results, right now.

Powered by HP and Intel.​ What You'll Learn On This Episode​ There's a massive gap between AI hype and what's actually happening in Australian small businesses. This episode cuts through the noise with real data from HP's latest research and a conversation with someone who's turned AI into her competitive advantage.​ Matt and Lisa kick things off by unpacking HP's report "From Hype to Help: What SMBs Need to Thrive with AI."

Kristina went from running a large company with dozens of staff to operating with 15 specialised AI bots that handle everything from content creation to business strategy.

HP and Microsoft found that 4 in 5 SMBs don't know what AI PCs are or what they do, and awareness drops even lower among smaller businesses. But here's the thing: AI isn't just hype.
