I recently teamed up with the peerless and brilliant Maria Franzoni to create a series of short Zoom interviews exploring the impact of AI, future trends, and the exciting opportunities ahead.

We’re already familiar with tools like ChatGPT and MidJourney, part of the ‘Generative AI’ family, that create content on demand. The next evolution is ‘Agentic AI’ — like having a conductor to manage tasks for you, from booking travel to handling projects.

To succeed, we’ll need to use AI wisely and stand out with our superpower — listening. Those who listen carefully will know when to use AI for ideas and when to let it take care of the details.

In a future where machines handle more work, understanding the problem will be our greatest strength.

These bite-sized, two-minute conversations will be released weekly — I hope you enjoy them!
