Pete Wright talks with Kyle Pardo and Terry Cook from AIM HR Solutions about the real AI dilemmas hitting the HR helpline: who actually owns AI inside a company, whether it's safe to let it draft warnings and termination letters, and what happens to confidential employee data once it's out there.\nThey get into the tension between executives mandating AI everywhere and younger workers who want nothing to do with it, the recruiting surprises that come with AI-written applications, and the legal minefield of note takers and meeting recordings. A practical conversation about guiding AI before it quietly reshapes your workplace.\nLinks & NotesThe New York Times v. OpenAI — the case Pete references on chat data that can't simply be deleted. A May 2025 preservation order required OpenAI to retain ChatGPT logs; that order was later terminated (October 2025), and in November 2025 the court ordered OpenAI to produce roughly 20 million de-identified chat logs to the plaintiffs. A useful reminder that \"deleted\" and \"gone\" aren't the same thing.Massachusetts Wiretap Statute (M.G.L. c. 272, § 99) — the two-party (all-party) consent law behind the note-taker and smart-glasses discussion. Massachusetts is one of roughly a dozen all-party consent states, and secretly recording a conversation can carry criminal penalties. For a plain-language walkthrough, the Digital Media Law Project's Massachusetts recording guide is a good starting point.\nAIM HR Helpline — AIM members can reach the helpline with questions like the ones in this episode by phone at 800-470-6277 or by email at helpline@aimnet.org, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/X5rWk8hmNiqOqWqFEWn5FvHTyP5q_-h1OnBcklccaBQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzMyOTM0LzE2NTk1/NjY0MTQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
