We wake up in a fast-paced world, and sometimes 24 hours isn't enough. But what if you could get back an extra hour each week? What would you do with it? I bet most of us will do what we love. Perhaps become a better spouse, parent, or friend. Or pursue bigger things and spend an hour less treated like a ticket. That's when the power of AI comes in. Today's episode is not a typical discussion about AI because our guest, Dan Turchin, CEO and Founder of PeopleReign, will tell us what the future could be with the help of AI. Meet the tech powerhouse and AI aficionado, Dan Turchin! As the CEO and Founder of PeopleReign, he's revolutionizing employee service automation with his leading AI platform. He's also a member of the Forbes Technology Council and the host of the wildly popular podcast show AI and the Future of Work. But wait, there's more! Before PeopleReign, he was at the helm of InsightFinder, the AIOps leader, and co-founded Astound, an AI-first enterprise platform for HR and IT. Oh, and did we mention he's served as Chief Product Officer at Fortinet and a Senior Director of Product Strategy at ServiceNow? This guy's tech cred is off the charts. But he's not just a tech genius, Dan's also an active angel investor and startup advisor with over 30 companies in his portfolio. He's passionate about building great teams and great products that solve hard problems and change lives. And when he's not crushing it in the tech world, he's likely cheering on youth soccer, indulging in some adventure sports, or reading Asimov and Dr. Seuss. Dan's got a BS and BA from Stanford University, so he's got the smarts to back up his incredible tech journey. A, for Augmented Not Artificial “If we could build like a great big digital brain that like personal concierge that would be awesome. You've got like your companion brain that gets smarter all the time and is just there to assist you, to make you like the best version...That's our vision for the future of work, for the future of humanity.” --- Dan Turchin Gen Z is known for being great consumers of new technologies, like AI and machine learning, without necessarily understanding how they work. Imagine walking into the office and the walls knowing who you are, making your job easier. The mundane tasks that create friction between employees and employers disappear, giving employees an hour back to do more of what they love. Dan Turchin emphasizes the end goal is to bring impact to the next billion employees and make work life more human. Transforming Life, Enhancing Capabilities Imagine being able to travel the world and understand every language without even speaking it. Sounds like science fiction, right? But with the rapid advancements in technology, it's becoming a reality. The only impediments to this technology were storage problems, bandwidth, and data training, but now those are rapidly being solved. Augmentation is a huge part of this... “There's amazing research in AI that's going into the augmentation of capabilities that we thought, we thought there was a limit to what we could do as humans, now we realize there's no limit and its augmented intelligence that's helping us realize that.” --- Dan Turchin Not only does it save time and accelerate outputs, but it also helps people with disabilities, too. Futuristic Perspectives Doing what you love is what makes you the best version of yourself. Dan delves

LEAD YOUR OWN THOUGHTS OR SOMEONE ELSE WILL AND THE IMPACT ON YOUR HEALTH WILL ASTOUND YOU “Healthy thinking can produce a healthy body. Toxic thinking can produce a toxic body. This is true of the human organism and human organizations. The quality of one's thinking determines the quality of one's life. If others can benefit, profit or gain control from influencing your thinking in a bad way, the money motive alone might be enough to corrupt their intentions. Guarding your thoughts could well become a feature of basic survival. It is already a truth of optimal health and an optimized life. Lead the narrative, influence those you care about beginning with promoting positive and healthy thoughts.” J Loren Norris Watch the video Leading Leaders Podcast 2-15-23: http://www.jlorennorris.com/podcast/lead-your-own-thoughts-or-someone-else-will-and-the-impact-on-your-health-will-astound-you Leading Leaders Podcast for Tell It Like It Is TV https://anchor.fm/j-loren-norris/support CLICK HERE for the FREE StoryPower Assessment - https://form.jotform.com/222696275293163 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/j-loren-norris/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/j-loren-norris/support

Today I talked to Sanjiv Chopra about his book Coffee the Magical Elixir: Facts That Will Astound and Perk You Up (Bookbaby, 2021) 2.25 billion cups of coffee are consumed globally everyday. Coffee has a myriad of health benefits the overwhelming majority are which not known to the lay public and even physicians. There has been a plethora of research published in peer reviewed scientific journals attesting to the health benefits of coffee. They are mechanistic explanations and often a dose dependent benefit. Coffee drinkers have a lower risk of seven common cancers, cirrhosis of the liver, type 2 diabetes, Parkinson's Disease, and many other common ailments. Astoundingly coffee drinkers, both women and men have lower total and cause specific mortality. Telomeres are caps at the end of our chromosomes that protect the chromosomes from sticking to each other and from fraying. Shorten telomere length implies accelerated cellular aging and is seen in mothers of chronically disabled children and care givers of folks with Alzheimer's Dementia. Longer telomere length is seen in individuals who exercise, meditate, are on the Mediterranean diet and those who drink coffee. Here is a mind boggling fact. Increase caffeine intake is linked with shortened telomeres, while increased coffee intake is linked with longer telomeres. Coffee has thousands of constituents and it is not caffeine that confers the health benefits. Learn more about your ad choices.

Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey has sued the Trump administration, Uber, Juul, Exxon Mobil, the Sacklers, and more — and has made a national name for herself in the process. Now she's investigating social media companies for the impact they have on teen mental health, and she's not impressed. “The level of hubris and arrogance, particularly on the part of Facebook, has really astounded me,” she tells Kara Swisher. Healey is currently aiming for a statewide prize: She's running for governor. If she wins, she would be the first woman (and the first lesbian) to hold the job in Massachusetts. In this episode, Kara presses Healey on how she can appeal to a state that has elected moderate Republicans to the governorship in recent years. She also asks Healey to weigh in on the so-called “Don't Say Gay” bill in Florida, which Healey says has to be fought both in the court of law and “in the court of public opinion — you really have to call out the misinformation for what it is.”You can find transcripts (posted midday) and more information for all episodes at nytimes.com/sway, and you can find Kara on Twitter @karaswisher.
