Episode SummaryIn this provocative and insightful episode, OnBase host Chris Moody reunites with Lukas Egger to discuss one of the most talked-about frontiers in business innovation: agentic AI. Lukas explores how companies can move beyond demos and hype to implement AI in ways that reshape business models and unlock new value creation.Key TakeawaysPrioritizing Agentic AI: Leaders must prioritize agentic AI for business preparedness due to the significant investment and potential for new value creation.Understanding Misconceptions: It's crucial to recognize the "Jagged Frontier of AI," where AI's capabilities are counterintuitive, and avoid the "Lego brick fallacy," which assumes AI can be simply plugged into existing processes.Lowering Cost of Failure: To confidently adopt AI, businesses must systematically lower the cost of failure, iterate quickly, and democratize the process.Data-Driven Insights: Robust data and real answers are essential for understanding the ROI and impact of AI changes on business processes, systems, and people.Competitive Advantage: Instead of focusing solely on common AI use cases, businesses should identify their unique, unfair advantages and engage in rapid iterations and customer conversations to discover differentiating functionalities.Integrated Innovation: Marketing, sales, and business development should be involved early in the AI innovation process to ensure that new solutions align with market needs and monetization strategies.Beyond Peacocking: Avoid simply "peacocking" with AI by replicating what others are doing; instead, focus on deep integration and solving real business problems.Best Moments 02:00 – Lukas describes his nonlinear path from philosophy and startups to enterprise innovation at SAP.05:00 – The promise of agentic AI: opening up new domains for value creation and strategic repositioning.10:00 – Breaking down misconceptions: why traditional planning fails in the face of fast-moving AI.15:00 – Lowering the cost of failure and why “small wins” are key to long-term adoption.20:00 – Avoiding AI homogeneity: how to resist the urge to copy competitors and build a real moat.26:00 – Implementing AI at scale in large organizations: the hidden value of domain expertise and transparency.32:00 – The behaviors leaders must change to avoid missing the AI wave entirely.38:00 – Why marketers and sales teams must embed in AI development—early and often.Shout-outsHelen and Dave Edwards, Co-Founders of Artificiality Institute who discuss the emotional components of AI technology.Peter Temes, Founder and President, ILO Institute, for his deep understanding of basicAbout the GuestLukas N.P.

Dr Alvy Ray Smith is the co-founder of Pixar, a computer scientist and pioneer in the field of computer graphics and to celebrate 39 years to the day that Pixar was officially founded, I wanted to release my interview with Alvy from Series 3.After starting his career in academia, Alvy had an epiphany following a serious skiing accident. He decided to move to California to combine his two passions - art and computers - in a place where he felt something good was about to happen. Alvy was always a pioneer. From creating his first computer graphic in 1965, Alvy became an original member of the Computer Graphics Lab at the New York Institute of Technology, he witnessed the birth of the personal computer at Xerox PARC, and he was the first director of computer graphics at George Lucas's Lucasfilm. It was there that Alvy gathered some of the smartest people he knew to develop computer graphics software, including early renderer technology. He and colleague Ed Catmull then spun out to co-found the famous Pixar, soon followed by the hiring of Lucasfilm colleague John Lasseter, and Steve Jobs as an investor. It was at Pixar that Toy Story would be made - the very first, entirely computer-animated, feature film. In 2006, Pixar was sold to Disney for $7.4 billion.In this interview, Alvy recounts his career from the early days at Xerox PARC to how Pixar got started. We discuss the Pixar journey in detail, as well as his latest book – A Biography of the Pixel (you can buy here)- including how innovation is born from three strands: An idea, chaos and a tyrant. And how Steve jobs was both the saviour and the tyrant in the incredible Pixar story.A true pioneer, this is one of my favourite conversations.Enjoy!-----NB This episode was first released in Series 3.Let us know what you think of this episode and please rate, review and share - it means the world to me and helps others to find it too.Danielle Twitter / Instagram / Substack Newsletter / YouTubeAll my podcast episodes are edited with Descript - try it for FREE hereAlvy Ray Smith on Twitter @alvyray / website Buy Alvy Ray Smith's book A Biography of the Pixel here. -----This episode was hosted by me - Danielle Newnham, a recovering founder, author and writer who has been interviewing tech founders and innovators for ten years - and produced by Jolin Cheng.

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of Discover Daily, we explore OpenAI's announcement of their latest AI model, o3. This revolutionary model features enhanced reasoning capabilities, improved coding abilities, and innovative chain-of-thought processing. OpenAI's cautious approach includes initial restricted access to safety researchers, with a phased release strategy planning to introduce o3-mini by January 2025.The FDA's comprehensive update to its 'healthy' nutrient content claim marks a significant shift in food labeling standards. The new criteria emphasize nutrient-dense foods while limiting added sugars, allowing previously excluded foods like salmon and avocados to qualify for the 'healthy' label. These changes are projected to save $686 million in chronic disease-related costs over 20 years, though manufacturers face substantial reformulation expenses.The spotlight story features Genesis, dubbed the world's fastest physics engine, developed through collaboration among 20+ research labs. This platform can run simulations up to 430,000 times faster than real-time on an RTX 4090 GPU, with practical applications ranging from robotics to video game development.

Today's guest is Tamiko Thiel – lead product designer of The Connection Machine – a revolutionary massively parallel artificial intelligence supercomputer which was developed in the 1980s. Originally conceived by Danny Hillis from MIT's artificial intelligence lab where he was studying under Marvin Minsky, Danny got an incredibly talented team together including Richard Feynman, Brewster Kale, Tamiko, and others to create what would become the fastest and most effective supercomputer of the time. And it's this part of her career that we focus on today.However, Tamiko went on to become a pioneering digital artist who has worked in the realm of virtual reality for the past thirty years, starting in 1994 when she worked with Steven Spielberg on the Starbright World project where they created an online interactive 3D virtual world for seriously ill children.Tamiko also received a Bachelor of Science degree in Product Design Engineering, from Stanford University in 1979 and received a Masters in Mechanical Engineering from MIT in 1983, with a focus on human-machine design and computer graphics, as well as a diploma from the Academy of fine arts in Munich, Germany. In today's conversation we dig deep into that special time in history when all the so-called experts said what Danny, Tamiko and co. were working on at Thinking Machines couldn't be done and where… they proved them all wrong.Enjoy!--------------Image of Tamiko copyright Tamiko ThielTamiko website / LinkedIn / InstagramI am not on social media this year but stay in touch via my Newsletter / YouTube--------------Tamiko in London March 2024The Travels of Mariko Horo interactive virtual reality installationBy Tamiko Thiel, 2006/2017, with original music by Ping JinIn "GLoW: ILLUMINATING INNOVATION"Bush House Arcade, King's College, Strand, LondonExhibition: 08 March - 20 April 2024Panel and opening event: 07 March, 6:30pmLocation: Great Hall, King's Building, Strand, King's College LondonThe CM-1 t-shirt and Tamiko's Travels of Mariko Horo mesh top will be shown in the following, with information on how to order them (from my web shops: http://tamikothiel.com/cm/cm-tshirt.html)Curiosity Cabinet, King's College171 Strand/Corner of Surrey St., Londonhttps://www.kcl.ac.uk/news/curiosity-cabinet-showcases-antiquities-and-oddities-on-the-strand
A true pioneer in computer graphics.
Part of what I love about getting to create a podcast like this is sharing conversations I've had with some of these extraordinary people that you just never hear about otherwise or never get to meet. They're working behind the scenes, inventing new technologies that become part of our lives. And they're out of the spotlight. I've been lucky enough to get to know Richard Chuang, who's with us today, because we both served as board members at the University of Silicon Valley, where he is still a trustee. Richard is a pioneer in computer graphics. He's been there since the beginning, since the moment we turned pixels into images on a computer screen and turned those images into animations. What has later become, everything you see coming out of Hollywood now. He's a real pioneer in computer graphics, having built some of the animation systems at PDI, 30 years ago, that ultimately became DreamWorks Animation, where the pioneering feature films animated on computers. Ants, Shrek, those kinds of things were first done. Look, Richard, it makes me want to cry. How humble he is, the wisdom he has in this conversation. He's sharing so much with us and, going back to, the seventies when he first learned about computers. there's some computer history in here. His encounters with Steve Jobs over the years, in both working in animation with computers, his experience with, some of the other pioneers in the, in the industry. Richard doesn't take credit personally for anything, but the truth is he's behind a lot of these things that change the world, and I'm so thrilled to be able to share him with all of you guys. Recorded June 20, 2018 at the University of Silicon Valley.

EPISODE 148 SEASON 4 | Art is subjective, right? So how can you teach someone what art is? It's often a subject that as homeschoolers we may not think to teach or shy away from teaching because teaching art can be intimidating! But one way to look at teaching art is that yes it is subjective so everyone appreciates something different but it is also a chance for you to teach your child other skills as they are being creative. Being creative or artistic requires them to make decisions, what color here, what medium should I use? It also stretches their brain to come up with new ideas or view things in a different way. Join Janna and her guest Karen Barge as they discuss art, and how it can elevate your homeschool and also set a wonderful basis for your student as they grow with decision-making and more. ABOUT OUR GUEST | Karen Barge is a professional illustrator and artist who now teaches online art classes at Sunny Art Academy. Over 20 years, she taught various art classes for ages 5 to 85. She created her own curriculum for five years for the Vista Art Foundation's Gallery 204, including summer camps for kids like Alice in Wonderland and Art Around The World. Then Karen held teaching positions at several Montessori and Catholic schools for another six years. Her years of teaching included how to draw, paint parties, acrylic, watercolor, and oil painting to teens and adults. In the summer of 2023, Karen combined her children's, teen, and adult video art classes into one website, Sunny Art Academy. Karen has a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from The University of North Texas and a degree in Computer Graphics in Multimedia.

In this episode of High Theory, Bernard Dionysius Geoghegan talks with us about computer graphics. Emerging from tools for sailing and warmaking, like sea charts and radar, modern computer graphics are technologies of mapping and managing risk. They seem intent on absorbing the human sensorium into the machine. In the episode Bernard refers to computer graphics as “techniques of addressing,” a term he attributes to Ranjodh Singh Dhaliwal. He also uses the term “operational images” which comes from the work of Harun Farocki, and talks about SAGE, the US Government's Cold War era Semi-Automatic Ground Environment Air Defense System. Bernard references Paul Edward's book A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming (MIT Press, 2013). He also mentions the German scholar Christoph Borbach who has written on auditory computer interfaces, and American disability studies scholar Mara Mills, who has written on the Deaf history of computing. He was kind enough to give us an extensive bibliography on this topic, which is posted below. Bernard Dionysius Geoghegan is a reader in the History and Theory of Digital Media at King's College London. He has a brand new book out on the cybernetic history of French theory, called Code: From Information Theory to French Theory (Duke UP, 2023). Kim met him when he came to give a talk at the Stanford Humanities Center in January 2023. He wore denim and had a slightly manic affect. People came all the way from Berkeley to hear what he had to say, which is quite impressive in the Bay Area. This week's image is a radar loop of the December 16 2007 Eastern North America winter storm, found on Wikimedia Commons. The loop runs from Saturday Morning at 7 AM (Dec 15) to Sunday Night at 7 PM (Dec 16). The image is in the public domain because it was made by someone who works for the National Weather Service.
