How a Global Media Giant Is Tackling AI Governance, Shadow IT & Training 900+ Journalists | Ep 7

What does it actually look like to roll out AI governance inside one of the world's biggest media companies? In this episode of The Signal, we sit down with Olalla Novoa Ojea, Director of Artificial Intelligence at PRISA, to get into the messy, fascinating, very real challenge of making AI work responsibly at scale. We're talking shadow IT (yes, people using AI in secret), the "you are the product" problem with free tools, training 900+ journalists without sending them running for the hills, and building a governance framework that actually makes people feel confident - not scared. Spoiler: there's no such thing as a free lunch. What's covered in this episode: • Why governance doesn't have to be a dirty word • The two-tiered oversight model PRISA uses to review every AI tool • How "use case cards" bring structure without bureaucracy • The real risks hiding inside free AI tools • How to train journalists on AI without it feeling like a compliance lecture • Why clear rules actually free people up to experiment more Guest: Olalla Novoa Ojea, Director of AI at PRISA The Signal is brought to you by Fathm — Subscribe so you don't miss the next episode Like if this made you think differently about AI at work Drop your thoughts in the comments - are you or your company thinking about AI governance? —
