AI & Geopolitics, Trump in the dock, and new UK Brexit checks

In the US there's a split-screen election underway with Donald Trump in the dock and President Biden doing his best to tell everyone about it. Lauren Fedor of the Financial Times brings us the latest from the US election campaign. New checks on imports into the UK on Agri and food products were introduced this week. Mandy finds out how they went down with businesses and what it might mean for the consumer. And we dive into the ever-evolving landscape of AI in business & politics, and the efforts of countries vying for control and regulation of this transformative sector. Mark Kelly, Chief Customer Officer at Alldus, founder of AI Ireland, and the author of 'AI Unleashed' joins Mandy to discuss.
