In this episode, Andy Davis speaks with Iñigo Antolín, Head of Data Management and Governance at the British Council, about the deep-rooted organisational barriers to AI adoption.

From the risks of “shiny tool syndrome” to the vital role of incentives, Iñigo shares why successful AI initiatives depend far more on cultural readiness than technical capability. They discuss why common assumptions about model fairness, data quality, and scalability often miss the mark — and why governance, sponsorship, and experimentation are essential.

A practical, honest look at what really drives AI readiness, especially for organisations early in their journey or facing internal resistance.
