In this episode of Weld Wednesday with AWS, I sit down with Andrew Brown, host of The Lost Art of Skilled Trades Podcast, live from FABTECH 2025 in Chicago. Andrew and I dig into the real numbers behind the Skilled Trades shortage — including the projected need for over 320,000 welders by 2029 and the retirement wave that could pull more than 157,000 welders out of the industry in the next decade. I share how I first discovered the workforce gap when I moved into teaching, and Andrew breaks down why so many companies are struggling to connect with Gen Z. We talk about wage issues, soft skills, entry-level expectations, and why companies can't just post an ad and expect welders to line up anymore. We also get into a topic that both of us feel strongly about: mentorship vs. gatekeeping. I talk openly about my own early struggles finding someone willing to teach me, and Andrew explains why passing knowledge down is critical if we want the next generation to succeed. We wrap up with a discussion on automation, co-bots, and why welders, pipefitters, ironworkers, and aerospace fabricators continue to be irreplaceable in a world that's becoming more digital every year. If you care about the future of the welding workforce, this is an important conversation.   To get involved with AWS click here   

Did you know a single Formula 1 car produces 1.1 million data points every second from hundreds of sensors? That number alone sets the tone for this conversation with Ruth Buscombe, an F1 strategist, analyst, and F1TV presenter whose work sits at the meeting point of engineering precision and real time storytelling. We met at AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas, and her insights into how much pressure, judgment, and creativity are wrapped inside each decision brought the sport to life in a fresh way for anyone who has ever stared at a dashboard of metrics and wondered what really matters. This discussion goes far deeper than split times and tyre choices. Ruth explains how AWS and F1 are rethinking race strategy through real time insights and cloud compute, from TrackPulse and root-cause analysis all the way to predictive graphics that let commentary teams spot a race-defining moment before it happens. She also reflects on the sport's changing culture, the growth of new fan communities, and the shift from old telemetry to modern systems that process millions of data points every second. Her stories from the paddock at Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, and F1TV help frame just how intense the job can be when 12,000ths of a second separate pole from second place. There are moments in this conversation that remind us that F1 strategy is as much about human pattern recognition as it is about machine intelligence, and that the strongest engineers find ways to absorb pressure without losing their instinct. What stood out most was how clearly Ruth links F1 to decision making in every industry. Whether she is talking about marginal gains, pattern detection, or the discipline needed to separate noise from signal, her examples make perfect sense to both race fans and tech leaders. She shares how AWS tools allow broadcasters and engineers to interpret scenarios instantly, why the sport needed to move past manual diagnosis, and how new tools even help verify whether a driver's mistake came from a small steering slide or a split-second shift error. Her passion is infectious and her explanations cut straight to the heart of what makes the blend of live racing and cloud computing work so well. As you listen, think about how your own team makes choices under pressure and ask yourself one last question. If you were in the garage making a call with the whole world watching, which signals would you trust and how fast could you act?

In a keynote address from re:Invent, McKinsey & Company's Lareina Yee shares fascinating data, trends and best practices on AI adoption, the future of skillsets, and leadership insights that are needed for AI transformation at scale.Topics Include:Over 80% of companies have adopted AI in at least one business function currently.Despite heavy investment, 62% of companies remain in experimental or pilot phases with AI.Only 7% of organizations have achieved full-scale AI implementation, up from 2% earlier this year.Agentic AI has proliferated rapidly across functions from knowledge management to manufacturing in one year.Between 45% and 5% of companies have implemented AI agents across different business functions today.AI's productivity potential represents $4.4 trillion in economic value beyond just cost savings opportunities.Innovation ranks as the number one goal for AI investments, ahead of cost reduction priorities.Employee satisfaction, customer satisfaction, and competitive differentiation drive AI adoption alongside revenue growth and cost.High AI performers view implementation as total enterprise transformation, not just technology deployment projects.Leading companies spend 4.9 times more budget on AI investments compared to average performing organizations.Traditional software stacks evolved to SaaS, now transforming into AI-ready tech stacks within one generation.Job outlook remains mixed: 32% expect losses, 13% expect increases, 43% see no major change.Since 2023, significant skill shifts show increased demand for software development and business intelligence capabilities.AI fluency has increased seven times as the most sought-after skill across all job types.AI fluency means using AI in everyday work, not building models or creating large language models.Skills like driving records, coaching, customer service, and management remain harder to automate with current AI.Transactional, data-driven repetitive tasks like inventory management and invoicing face highest automation exposure currently.Historical technology revolutions like electricity created six to eight jobs for every one job displaced.New roles like prompt engineering emerge, requiring skills like effective questioning rather than technical coding.Participants:Lareina Yee - Director of Technology Research, McKinsey & CompanySee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

In this episode of the Technology & Security podcast, host Dr. Miah Hammond-Errey is joined by Kate Carruthers. Kate is currently the head of data analytics and AI at the Australian Institute of Company Directors. She shares her journey from defending Westfield against state and non-state cyber attacks to leading UNSW's enterprise data, AI, and cybersecurity efforts, including delivering the university's first production AI system in 2019 and re-architecting its cloud data platform for AI and ML. She notes boardrooms are evolving from basic cyber literacy to probing AI risks like models, data, and risk registers.  Carruthers outlines some real-world examples, such as UNSW's enterprise AI program, including a machine learning model that predicted which students were likely to fail a course, with 95%+ accuracy, so the university could design careful, humane intervention protocols to reduce self-harm risk. She argues that while frontier models like OpenAI and Gemini have a place, their compute costs, water intensity and general-purpose design make them poorly suited to some business problems, and that the future lies in smaller, industry-specific models trained on highly relevant data. The conversation covers the rise of agentic AI coding tools, the risk of deskilling junior developers, and the need for diverse, product-focused teams to translate technical systems into workable human processes.​ On security, she prioritizes CIA triad integrity over confidentiality, warning of data alterations in cars, medical devices, and government systems via poisoning or underinvestment in encryption. Carruthers urges Australian AI sovereignty—opting for open-source like Databricks over proprietary stacks—amid US-China model contrasts and outage risks from providers like AWS or CrowdStrike. Throughout, she encourages leaders not just to read about AI but to use multiple systems themselves, understand their limitations as probabilistic tools in deterministic business environments, and ground every deployment in clearly defined problems, ethics, and user needs.​

Di fronte a crash di portata mondiale, è montata l'idea che la soluzione sia "avere i server a casa". In questa puntata si svela che nessun sistema è immune da guasti o incidenti. L'episodio contrappone i clamorosi fermi mondiali ai numerosi (e non pubblicizzati) incidenti che bloccano le singole aziende, come blackout o server morti, ricordando anche i disservizi di realtà meno globali come OVH, Aruba, Libero mail e altri in Italia. I grandi servizi cloud come GCP e AWS sono essenziali per fornire prestazioni e scalabilità globali, e i loro documenti postmortem offrono un'analisi trasparente che raramente si trova nelle gestioni interne. L'unica via per sopravvivere è prendere atto che nessuno garantisce un uptime del 100% e attrezzarsi con alternative e ridondanza in zone geografiche diverse.

AWS's approach to Elastic Kubernetes Service has evolved significantly since its 2018 launch. According to Mike Stefanik, Senior Manager of Product Management for EKS and ECR, today's users increasingly represent the late majority—teams that want Kubernetes without managing every component themselves. In a conversation onThe New Stack Makers, Stefanik described how AI workloads are reshaping Kubernetes operations and why AWS open-sourced an MCP server for EKS. Early feedback showed that meaningful, task-oriented tool names—not simple API mirrors—made MCP servers more effective for LLMs, prompting AWS to design tools focused on troubleshooting, runbooks, and full application workflows. AWS also introduced a hosted knowledge base built from years of support cases to power more capable agents.While “agentic AI” gets plenty of buzz, most customers still rely on human-in-the-loop workflows. Stefanik expects that to shift, predicting 2026 as the year agentic workloads move into production. For experimentation, he recommends the open-source Strands SDK. Internally, he has already seen major productivity gains from BI agents that automate complex data analysis tasks.Learn more from The New Stack about Amazon Web Services' approach to Elastic Kubernetes ServiceHow Amazon EKS Auto Mode Simplifies Kubernetes Cluster Management (Part 1)A Deep Dive Into Amazon EKS Auto (Part 2)Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Love AWS Fargate, but occasionally hit the “I need more control” wall (GPUs, storage, network bandwidth, instance sizing)? In this episode of AWS Bites, Eoin and Luciano put the brand-new Amazon ECS Managed Instances (ECS MI) under the microscope as the “middle path” between Fargate simplicity and ECS on EC2 flexibility. We unpack what ECS MI actually is and where it fits in the ECS spectrum, especially how it changes the way you think about clusters and capacity providers. From there we get practical: we talk through the pricing model (EC2 pricing with an additional ECS MI fee that can be a bit counterintuitive if you rely heavily on Reserved Instances or Savings Plans), and we share what it feels like to finally get GPU support in an experience that's much closer to Fargate than to “full EC2 fleet management”. To make it real, we walk through what we built: a GPU-enabled worker that transcribes podcast audio using OpenAI Whisper, including the end-to-end setup in CDK (roles, capacity provider wiring, task definitions, and service configuration). Along the way we call out the rough edges we ran into, like configuration options that look like they might enable Spot-style behavior, and the operational realities you should expect, such as tasks taking roughly 3–4 minutes to start when ECS needs to provision fresh capacity. We close by mapping out the workloads where ECS MI shines (queue-driven GPU jobs, HPC-ish compute, tighter storage/network control) and the scenarios where it's probably the wrong choice, like when you need custom AMIs, SSH access, or stricter isolation guarantees.In this episode, we mentioned the following resources: Amazon ECS Managed Instances: ⁠https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/managed-instances/⁠ ECS Managed Instances documentation: ⁠https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/ManagedInstances.html⁠ Amazon Bottlerocket (what it is): ⁠https://aws.amazon.com/bottlerocket/⁠ Our CDK ECS MI template: ⁠https://github.com/fourTheorem/cdk-ecs-mi-template⁠ Ep 42.

In today's episode, Steve sits down with journalist Nick Witchell for a conversation focused on what business leaders can learn from this year's major cyber attacks and the recent AWS outage. The two also discuss cyber regulations and the challenge of operating global enterprise during significant geopolitical turmoil. Key Takeaways: Boards and senior executives understand there is a threat, but many still lack knowledge of how to deal with it.  We are too reliant on technology; for the sake of business continuity, a backup plan must be in place.  High-quality simulation exercises are a crucial step toward more cyber resilience. Tune in to hear more about: The role of policy and regulation (3:17) Why cyber simulation exercises are so important (5:45) Steve's thoughts on the recent AWS outage (7:54) Standout Quotes: “Now, in the boardroom itself, in companies themselves, we have seen over the past few years an increasing awareness of the threat that these kinds of things can bring to really the future of an organization. But the challenge I think we now face is really helping boards, senior executives to transition from, yes, I get there's a threat, but what should I actually be doing about it?” - Steve Durbin “I think that in the main, cloud service providers are still probably far better equipped to provide the level of service that most companies need than you'd be able to do yourself. However, we do need to take into account that things will go wrong. And we have to plan for that. So if you are an organization that can quite happily exist without access to data in a cloud provider, it doesn't have to be Amazon, it could be anybody else, then fine. I would question why you're using them in that case. If on the other hand, you are dependent on them, you have to have some backup in place.” - Steve Durbin “All too often I'm seeing people particularly in the area of, say, cyber simulation exercises, because they're viewing it as a compliance exercise, going for least cost. That to me is a bit like saying I've just moved into an area where I know the burglary rate is quite high. What's the cheapest lock and door that I can get on my front door? It's madness. Not many of us would do it. We would try to work within our budget. We'd try to really figure out how important things were in our house. That's the mentality we have to adopt. So yes, you can get some of these things done very cheaply and you can tick a box, but it's not going to help you when things go wrong.” - Steve Durbin Read the transcript of this episode Subscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts Connect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.

In this episode, Jack Cochran and Matthew James are joined by Hannah Bloking, and Allison Macalik, co-founders of 4Under3. They discuss the universal challenge of imposter syndrome in the pre-sales profession, exploring how it manifests, why it affects nearly everyone, and practical strategies to address it. Hannah and Allison share insights from their workshops, including powerful techniques like the "lighthouse speaker" mindset and the importance of naming your imposter to take control of those negative thoughts.

With increased AI Adoption, is the most valuable skill for a modern marketer empathy with customers, or is it successfully prompting? Contentful, in partnership with Atlantic Insights, The Atlantic's marketing research division, recently conducted a study of over 425 marketing decision makers including 103 CMOs. This study, “When Machines Make Marketers More Human,” challenges the notion that AI will replace many marketing functions and instead demonstrates how AI can amplify marketers' effectiveness, creativity and impact. Today, we're going to talk about how AI is reshaping the very definition of a modern marketer. We'll explore the shift from simply automating tasks to augmenting human creativity, the rise of the ‘full stack' marketer, and what skills are becoming non-negotiable in an AI-driven world.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Elizabeth Maxson, CMO at Contentful.
