This Week in Leading AI
Imagine two mates at the bar. Thirty years of business between them. And all they want to talk about is AI.
That's "This Week in Leading AI". The podcast where Kieron and Neil cut through the hype, share what's really working in the world of Generative AI, and helping people figure out this AI thing without the techno-babble.
Just honest conversation, real stories from the AI coalface, and the kind of straight-talking advice you'd only get from people who've worked together for 30+ years, been there, done that, broken things, gone "Oh S***!, fixed it, and lived to tell the tale. They claim Leading AI is the best job they've ever had and are having a blast doing it. It shows.
Warning: may cause you to actually enjoy learning about AI
Pull up a stool. We'll get the beers in.
