Description

In this episode of Digital.Decoded, Mario Pufahl and André Kiehne welcome their first guest: Olga Stepanova, a renowned IT lawyer and partner at ByteLaw.

They dive into a topic companies are already grappling with—and that becomes mandatory from 2026: the EU AI Act.

What’s behind this new framework? Which obligations—and opportunities—does it create for businesses?

They discuss:

• Why the EU AI Act is far more than a bureaucratic monster
• Which risks companies must understand—and document
• How AI and copyright intersect (spoiler: it’s complicated)
• Why now is the right time to build governance

A practical, no-nonsense conversation with insights from real legal advisory—clear, direct, and refreshingly free of legalese.

Tune in—and join the discussion.
