Reasonable Ignorance - The Podcast Show hosted by Jamal Shabazz (@kingboola) Magic Mike Walton (@magicmike32). Two Black Men raised on Chicago's Southside bringing you their views on today's Music, Business, and World Events.

Dave Sobel interviews Robert Buda, founder and president of Buda Consulting, about the critical role of data management in the age of AI. Buda emphasizes that while the principles of data management remain unchanged, the speed at which organizations must adapt to new technologies has increased dramatically. He argues that ensuring data quality is more crucial than ever, especially as organizations begin to rely on AI models for decision-making. Buda expresses concern that some in the AI community believe that simply feeding more data into models will lead to accurate outcomes, a notion he finds misleading.The conversation delves into the tension between speed and scale in data management. Buda explains that the rapid influx of new applications requires data professionals to react quickly, making speed a more pressing issue than the sheer volume of data. He acknowledges that while big data was heavily discussed, much of it went unused, contrasting this with the current AI landscape, which he believes will have a more significant impact on how data is utilized.Buda also challenges the perception that organizations overestimate the value of their data. He argues that many companies underestimate the criticality of their operational data, which is essential for their functioning. He highlights the risks associated with data loss, such as ransomware attacks, and stresses that all data, not just sensitive information, is vital for business continuity.As the discussion wraps up, Buda emphasizes the importance of maintaining rigorous data accuracy and proper metadata management. He warns against complacency as organizations adopt AI technologies, advocating for a proactive approach to ensure that data is well-structured and labeled. This diligence will be essential as businesses increasingly rely on AI-driven insights for operational decisions, making the quality of data more important than ever.

Artificial intelligence has been a frequent topic on Sinica in recent years — but usually through the lens of the two countries that have produced the leading models and companies: the United States and China. We've covered generative AI, national strategies, governance frameworks, and the geopolitical implications of AI leadership.This webinar, broadcast on the morning of August 14, broadens that lens to explore how other countries — and especially Ukraine — are approaching AI in the public sector. Around the world, governments are experimenting with AI well beyond chatbots and text generation: China's “City Brain” optimizes traffic, energy use, and public safety; U.S. agencies are streamlining services and automating benefits processing; and elsewhere, smart grids, predictive infrastructure planning, and AI-enabled e-governance are reshaping public administration. These projects reveal both the promise and the complexity of bringing AI into government — along with valid concerns over privacy, fairness, and inclusiveness.We'll look at what lessons Ukraine might draw from U.S. and Chinese experiences, the opportunities and challenges of adapting these practices, and the strategic risks of sourcing AI solutions from different providers — especially in the context of Ukraine's eventual postwar reconstruction.Joining us are three distinguished guests:Dmytro Yefremov, Board Member of the Ukrainian Association of Sinologists, with deep expertise in China's political and technological strategies and Ukraine's policy landscape.Wang Guan, Chairman of Learnable.ai in China, bringing extensive experience in AI applications for public administration and education.Karman Lucero, Associate Research Scholar and Senior Fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center, whose work focuses on Chinese law, governance, and the regulation of emerging technologies.Thanks to the Ukrainian Platform for Contemporary China, the Ukrainian Association of Sinologists, and the Center for Slavic, Eurasian, and East European Studies at the University of North Carolina–Chapel Hill for organizing and sponsoring today's event.

Send us a textWhat if the secret to great parenting wasn't found in perfect discipline strategies or elaborate educational plans, but in simply showing up? Tyler White, BDR with Akkodis and host of the Timeout with Leaders podcast, brings a refreshingly authentic perspective to fatherhood that will make you rethink your approach to family leadership.Growing up as the son of a high school football coach, Tyler learned early that commitments weren't optional—they were sacred. "The word commitment was like the real C-word in my family," he shares with a laugh. This foundation shaped him profoundly, but it's his two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Ella who's teaching him the most valuable lessons now. Watching her play with zero expectations has awakened his inner child and reminded him that sometimes the best leadership happens when we let go of control.The conversation takes powerful turns as Tyler recounts meeting his wife in sixth-grade church group, losing touch for twenty years, and then reconnecting through Facebook to build a beautiful family together. He vulnerably shares his growth areas as a dad, particularly in fully appreciating the challenges his wife faces as a stay-at-home mom. "Really understanding how much effort and energy that takes out of somebody and always remembering that," he reflects, is his ongoing work.Perhaps most compelling is Tyler's story about learning service from a colleague who drove twenty hours to help someone move without seeking recognition. "When you tell people about your serving, the grace is gone," the colleague explained—a principle that transformed Tyler's approach to both business and fatherhood. His three guiding principles—show up consistently, serve without expectations, and don't take yourself too seriously—offer a powerful framework for any dad looking to strengthen their family leadership.Whether you're a new father finding your footing or a seasoned dad seeking renewed purpose, this conversation will inspire you to embrace the joy of fatherhood without the pressure of perfection.

Earlier this year, Balchem and Progressive Dairy Magazine partnered to create a new webinar series, The Real Producer Exchange. In this podcast episode, Scott and Walt reflect on the first webinar in the series, where Clare Alderink from Brian Ryzebol Dairy was the featured producer. Walt gives an overview of the premise and setup of the webinar series along with a brief overview of Clare's background and current operation. Walt and Scott go on to share some excerpts from the webinar. (0:33)Clare talks about the dairy's experience incorporating high oleic soybeans into their rations, including pitfalls, growing pains and successes. (2:56)Ryzebol Dairy uses the AfiCollar feed efficiency tool. Clare talks about how they're using the data from the collars to make culling and breeding decisions, with an eye toward selecting more efficient cows to produce replacement heifers over time. (9:35)Clare also shares about things the dairy has tried that didn't work out so well, including the installation of solar. He notes that more research and discussion should have taken place among the dairy, the developer and the utility.  (16:28)Scott and Walt invite listeners to the next Real Producer Exchange on Tuesday, August 26 at 11 am EST, featuring Rob Diepersloot, a seventh generation dairy farmer and founder of WonderCow Nutrition, a colostrum-based wellness company. Topics will include how the family started and manages a consumer colostrum product, and how it impacts the dairy; the many differences in management needs across three locations – two in California and one in Colorado; and the vital role sustainability plays in all aspects of both businesses.

Tariffs imposed during the Trump administration are now impacting businesses, leading to layoffs and price increases as companies adapt to rising costs. Outdoor brand KAVU has implemented cost-saving measures, including freezing marketing spending and limiting employee travel, while preparing to raise prices due to escalating tariffs on imports from countries like India and Vietnam. Public companies such as QVC Group and Allbirds are also planning price increases to mitigate the effects of tariffs, which could contribute to higher inflation and reduced consumer spending. As the stability of tariff rates becomes clearer, businesses may become more decisive about hiring and layoffs.The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is surging, with nearly 80% of companies reportedly using generative AI. However, many firms are experiencing little to no significant impact on their bottom line, reminiscent of the productivity paradox seen during the personal computer boom. A survey indicates that CFOs are increasingly prioritizing AI for productivity and long-term revenue growth, with a notable shift in budget allocation towards agentic AI. Despite the optimism surrounding AI investments, the anticipated benefits have yet to materialize, raising concerns about skill degradation among professionals who rely heavily on AI tools.Recent executive orders signed by President Trump may have significant implications for cybersecurity, potentially reversing progress made under previous administrations. While some directives aim to enhance preparedness for cyberattacks at the state and local level, others remove critical software security requirements for government vendors. This shift could undermine existing protections and create vulnerabilities, benefiting hackers and fraudsters. Additionally, Disney's decision to cancel plans for a deepfake version of Dwayne Johnson highlights the growing concerns over copyright and AI-generated content, as studios grapple with the implications of intellectual property rights in the age of AI.As AI adoption accelerates, companies are rethinking their pricing strategies, moving from flat fees to consumption-based models to maintain profitability amid rising operational costs. This shift raises questions about forecasting costs and protecting margins, as unexpected spikes in per-task billing could impact clients. Furthermore, the limitations of AI systems in self-assessing their capabilities pose challenges for trust and validation in AI outputs. With significant vulnerabilities identified in AI systems during stress tests, service providers must ensure their AI offerings are built on robust, verified systems to deliver reliable value to clients. Four things to know today 00:00 With Tariffs Solidifying, Businesses Tighten Spending and Raise Prices, Forcing IT Providers to Prove Value03:56 Generative AI Adoption Hits 80%, Yet ROI Elusive as Healthcare Skill Loss and Data Risks Emerge07:56 Mixed Cybersecurity Signals from White House; AI Copyright Uncertainty Halts Disney's Moana Project10:50 AI Managed Services Evolve as Consumption Pricing Rises, Chatbots Mislead, and Red Teams Find 139 Flaws  Supported by:  https://www.moovila.com/https://scalepad.com/dave/  Tell us about a newsletter!https://bit.ly/biztechnewsletter All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

You CAN'T be perfect. Only your effort can be. There is a problem with how we look at perfectionism these days. We say it's a terrible thing and most will try to run from it - even ignore it. That's a bad approach. I wouldn't say you can embrace it but you have to use it's emotion for good. In this episode, I'm breaking down you and your team's work so you can identify what can actually be perfect (yes, some things, can) and what can't be. Know these things and you'll have a whole different perspective on how to design expectations for a high performing team. Great people are attracted to great environments. This is how you lay the foundation. Have a perfect (almost) week.

In today's enterprise landscape, many AI initiatives stall before delivering real business value—especially in service operations, where data lives in disconnected systems and frontline speed is critical. For Amit Gupta, Chief Digital Officer, Life Sciences Manufacturing Industry, at Danaher, overcoming these challenges requires a structured, business-first approach. On this episode of the AI in Business podcast, Amit shares how Danaher uses a 70/30 buy-versus-build strategy to accelerate time to value while maintaining flexibility. He details a step-by-step framework for identifying high-impact AI use cases, involving cross-functional teams early, and guiding projects from strategic concept to measurable results—what he calls moving from “strat to street.” Want to share your AI adoption story with executive peers?
