Tech on Trial Apple OpenAI and the AI Accountability Debate | TSG Ep. 1025

February 23, 2026

Technology providers are increasingly being asked to answer difficult questions about responsibility and oversight.

On this episode of Techstrong Gang, Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard, Stephen Foskett, Mitch Ashley and Garima Bajpai examine whether companies such as Apple and OpenAI are culpable for failing to alert authorities about potential criminal activity occurring on their platforms.

The conversation explores the legal and ethical boundaries of corporate responsibility and how far platform oversight should extend when potential crimes are identified.

The discussion then shifts to digital sovereignty as the team analyzes a US effort to create a portal for posting content banned in Europe. What does that mean for cross border governance and regulatory tension between the US and EU?

Finally, the episode takes a pragmatic turn. Is artificial intelligence delivering measurable return on investment for most businesses, or is enthusiasm outpacing results?

From liability to regulation to ROI, this episode looks at the growing accountability gap in modern technology.
