Nerushka Bowan on regulation, readiness, and the human cost of disruption.

What happens when the pace of AI evolution outstrips the ability of governments and legal systems to respond? In this provocative episode of Orellium Future Strategy, Rob and Jonathan speak with Nerushka Bowan — lawyer, privacy expert, futurist, and founder of the LITT Institute — about the shifting ground beneath the legal and regulatory profession.

Nerushka draws from her global experience advising lawyers, corporates, and policymakers to explore:
- Why regulating AI using traditional legal frameworks is not just hard, but possibly pointless
- How power has shifted from public institutions to private tech giants, with geopolitical consequences
- The urgent need for emerging economies to take control of their own AI destinies
- The overlooked mental health risks of AI and immersive tech
- The coming impact of quantum computing on law and humanity
- And why education, curiosity, and bespoke AI may be law firms’ best chance to stay relevant

Plus, a lively debate about copyright, hallucinations, the illusion of control, and whether any of us would really want to wake up from the Matrix…

This is not just an episode for lawyers. It’s for anyone navigating the ledge between progress and peril in today’s tech-infused world.
