Strategic Technology Consultation Services This episode of The Modern .NET Show is supported, in part, by RJJ Software's Strategic Technology Consultation Services. If you're an SME (Small to Medium Enterprise) leader wondering why your technology investments aren't delivering, or you're facing critical decisions about AI, modernization, or team productivity, let's talk. Show Notes "What do I mean by compute? Compute is whenever you want a computer to do a thing, okay, it requires the CPU to exist and I want the CPU to do a thing. How well it can do it Is based upon what kind of CPU you have. What kind of CPU they have since have it in miniature chip. So, if you have an NVIDIA chip, it does a lot of really good things, but as we know, they're very expensive, and that's why NVIDIA is like what, I guess, the largest company in the world right now."— Michael Washington Hey everyone, and welcome back to The Modern .NET Show; the premier .NET podcast, focusing entirely on the knowledge, tools, and frameworks that all .NET developers should have in their toolbox. I'm your host Jamie Taylor, bringing you conversations with the brightest minds in the .NET ecosystem. Today, Michael Washington joined us to talk about his open source project "Personal Data Warehouse", what a data warehouse is, and the why we collect data in our applications. We also talk about the differences between storing data in the database and storing it in a data warehouse—one of the biggest differences, as you'll find out, is the difference in cost. "The only reason why we collect any data is because at some point a human being needs this data to make a decision. Seriously, and I challenge anyone to come up with any exceptions to that."— Michael Washington Along the way, we talked about the benefits and pitfalls of leveraging AI (particularly LLMs) in your applications. Both Michael and I agree that there is little "intelligence" in LLMs in the traditional sense, and Michael brings up the most important point when deciding to an LLM in your application: that a human must always make decisions based on what data they have and what the LLM can provide. We must never hand over decision making to LLMs. Before we jump in, a quick reminder: if The Modern .NET Show has become part of your learning journey, please consider supporting us through Patreon or Buy Me A Coffee.

I'm excited to share my latest conversation from Informatica's headquarters in Redwood City with Sumeet Agrawal, VP, Informatica on The Ravit Show. We went deep into the world of AI agents and what it takes to bring them into the enterprise. It was about how Informatica is making it real.Here's a glimpse into what we covered:- Breaking down consumer, coding, and enterprise agents and why trusted data is the biggest challenge for adoption- How Informatica's AI Agent Engineering makes it possible to build enterprise-grade agents in minutes- The role of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in unlocking new levels of integration, governance, and scalability- Busting myths like “agents will replace developers” or “you need massive LLMs for useful agents”- Addressing doubts on trust, safety, scalability, and even whether IDMC capabilities can be reused outside IDMC- A rapid-fire round tackling both technical and business questions — from fixing hallucinations to the future-proofing power of context protocolsWhat stood out was the balance between innovation and trust. Informatica isn't just building fast-moving technology, they're making sure it's safe, governed, and ready for real-world scale!!!!Thank you to Sumeet and the Informatica team for the warm welcome and for opening up this conversation.The full interview is now live on The Ravit Show YouTube channel.

The economy has its cheerleaders and detractors, but one thing that is keeping it propped up is the small businesses of America. The Paychex Small Business Employment Watch shows that despite the hourly earnings growth coming in below 3% for 11 straight months, it has stayed consistent at about 2.7%. This is based on real payroll numbers, and with government job numbers not based on that – and missing last week because of the shutdown – it's important to have reliable job and wage data. Gene Marks shares a new way to measure income data, plus he discusses how data doesn't reflect AI taking people's jobs in America as of yet. Listen to the podcast.

Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain Podcast, I sit down with Dag Calafell, Director of Technology Innovation at MCA Connect, to explore how data and digital tools are reshaping manufacturing and supply chains. With more than 25 years of experience in steel and automotive, Dag has seen first-hand how waste creeps into processes, and how technology can help eliminate it.We dig into why so many organisations are still running core planning on Excel, and what happens when companies move beyond disconnected systems towards true data visibility. Dag explains how AI, IoT, and smart sourcing agents can transform supplier relationships, reduce risk, and embed sustainability directly into day-to-day decision making. He shares striking examples, from a food manufacturer wasting energy on unnecessary refrigerated transport, to a materials producer that boosted forecast accuracy by 60% and cut excess inventory by nearly a third.The conversation also touches on lean principles, the power of continuous improvement, and the role of executive alignment in setting measurable goals for carbon reduction. We talk about future supply chain models too, whether lights-out factories, robotics, or distributed manufacturing networks that reduce transport emissions.For supply chain leaders, the takeaway is clear: sustainability is inseparable from efficiency. When you collect the right data, apply the right tools, and commit to improvement, you not only cut costs and boost resilience, you reduce your environmental footprint at the same time.Listen in for practical lessons and forward-looking insights that can help your organisation modernise, decarbonise, and stay competitive in an increasingly complex supply chain landscape.Elevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

"85% of AI use cases are being evaluated by the engineer who built it saying, 'yep, seemed to work pretty well.' If you're gonna build a system that's going to be critical to the business, that's going to be important that it gets it right, then you can't do that without evaluations." - Craig Wiley Fresh out of the studio, Craig Wiley, Senior Director of Product Management at Databricks who leads Mosaic AI, joins us to discuss the forefront of enterprise AI from model development to deployment at scale. Beginning with his career journey in ML operations, Craig explained how he recognized the critical connection between data and AI layers that could deliver order-of-magnitude acceleration in development cycles. Emphasizing the transition from classical ML operations to LLM operations, he showcased how Databricks' unified platform eliminates training-serving skew through data lineage capabilities and supports both fine-tuning and RAG approaches depending on industrial use case requirements. Highlighting compelling customer success stories including Suncorp's employee productivity platform and AstraZeneca's transformation of 400,000 clinical trial documents into queryable insights, Craig revealed a striking reality about enterprise AI evaluation - that 85% of AI use cases are being evaluated only by the engineers who built them, reinforcing that proper evaluation frameworks remain foundational for trustworthy AI implementation. He concluded by introducing Agent Bricks as Databricks' evaluation-centric approach to building production agents, emphasizing that model flexibility and rigorous testing are essential for enterprises moving from experimentation to production, while sharing his vision that the industry must evolve from the "year of agents" to the "year of evaluation and quality."

AI-driven search (AISEO) is opening a new lane for brands in competitive categories. Joe Davies from FATJOE explains why branded mentions (not just links) are increasingly what LLMs use to decide recommendations—and how teams can systematically earn those mentions. We cover tactics like guest blogging at scale, context-seeding your USP across reviews/listicles, building deep product docs to feed LLMs, and using tier-two links to get your “influencer pages” ranking. Early data shows 2–3× higher conversion rates from AI-referred traffic because buyers arrive pre-educated and ready to act.What You'll LearnWhy AISEO rewards brand mentions and clear USPs more than classic link metrics.How AI-referred traffic converts 2–3× higher than traditional search.A repeatable process to seed your brand in listicles, reviews, and comparisons.How to “context-seed” your USP so LLMs recommend you for the right reason.Why deep help docs / knowledge bases make LLMs more confident recommending you.How to choose targets (DR + real traffic), then lift them with tier-two links.The state of AISEO observability (what to track, what's still immature).Tactical Playbook (Step-by-Step)Define your USP: the specific “best for ___” angle you want LLMs to repeat.Keyword map long-tail, bottom-funnel queries (e.g., “best X for Y,” “X vs Y,” “X alternatives,” “[product] review”).Prospect targets with credible traffic (DR is fine as a filter, but prioritize verified organic traffic).Commission content: secure guest posts/listicles and full reviews on those sites. Mix formats to look natural.Context-seed your USP in every placement (e.g., “Best for small teams,” “Most features,” “Best value”).Include competitors in listicles/reviews so the page is useful (LLMs prefer balanced sources).Boost with tier-two links (niche edits, syndication) to help these pages rank on pages 1–3.Expand surface area: Reddit answers, YouTube/tutorial mentions, and social chatter to reinforce brand salience.On-site foundation: build exhaustive docs—features, integrations, FAQs, facts sections—so LLMs can learn you deeply.Measure pragmatically: track referral traffic from AI surfaces and downstream conversions; current “AI visibility” tools are early.Resources & MentionsChatGPT Path (shows the searches/sources ChatGPT runs under the hood): https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/chatgpt-path/kiopibcjdnlpamdcdcnphaajccobkbanFATJOE — Brand Mentions Service: http://fatjoe.com/brand-mentionsFATJOE: https://fatjoe.com/Key TakeawaysAISEO is early but growing fast and already drives higher-intent traffic.Focus on being mentioned credibly across the open web; LLMs synthesize those signals.Listicles + reviews on high-trust, real-traffic sites are the current highest-leverage assets.Your docs are marketing now—LLMs read them and recommend accordingly.Don't abandon SEO; it remains the foundation that AI systems lean on.Chapters00:00 Cold open: AISEO's opportunity & why mentions matter03:45 Data: AI referrals converting 2–3× vs. classic SEO07:50 Who should prioritize AISEO (and who can wait)10:30 Tactics: listicles, reviews, and “context-seeding” your USP15:45 Tools & workflows; extension that reveals ChatGPT's queries19:45 Content ops: human vs. AI writing, plans, and clustering22:30 Build deep product docs to feed LLM understanding26:10 Ranking the influencer pages + tier-two links33:00 Observability today: what's useful, what isn't yet36:50 The next 5–10 years: AI + SEO, not AI vs. SEOGuestJoe DaviesX: https://x.com/fatjoedaviesLinkedIn: https://es.linkedin.com/in/joe-davies-seoWebsite: https://fatjoe.com/

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross cuts through the overwhelming noise around AI in marketing to reveal what's real, what's useful, and what's pure hype. From AI-fueled content creation and personalization to ads, analytics, and the dangers of AI deepfakes, Ross shares his honest take on how marketers can harness AI effectively—without losing their creativity (or their jobs). Hint: AI isn't here to replace great marketers, but it will expose mediocre ones. Whether you're feeling FOMO about AI tools or tired from constant information overload, this episode offers grounded insights and an actionable roadmap for embracing AI in a sustainable and meaningful way. Key Takeaways and Insights: Understanding the Current AI Hype Cycle AI is at the peak of inflated expectations. Nearly every tool is rushing to add AI capabilities. $10B spent in AI implementation efforts by consulting firms. The opportunity is real—but so is the noise. Content Creation: The Draft, Not the Director Tools like ChatGPT, Jasper, Rytr, SEMrush, and HubSpot offer “okay” drafts. Great marketers use AI for first drafts, then add emotion, creativity, and data. AI helps compress content production time significantly. Key quote: “The AI tool is not your creative director.” Repurposing & Distribution at Scale One of the best use cases for AI in content marketing. Turn one podcast into dozens of social assets, short videos, quotes, etc. Old content can be brought back to life using AI. 24/7 brand promotion equals scale and efficiency. AI for Creating Visuals & Ads Tools now allow marketers to generate images and mock ads from product photos. Emerging use case: image creation with tools like ChatGPT's DALL·E. AI lowers cost and time for creative asset generation. AI-Powered Insights from Data AI can identify behavior trends, segment audiences, and support lead scoring. Automate personalized communications triggered by user behavior. In-depth AI-based customer feedback analysis is now possible. Reminder: "Good data = good AI." Personalization: Right Message, Right Time AI enables highly tailored emails, landing pages, and even video messages. Important: Avoid going too far or getting creepy with data usage. Balance personalization with ethics and relevance. The Fluff: SEO Snake Oil & “Turnkey” Strategies Beware of tools promising 10,000 blog posts and instant rankings. "Hallucination" risk with auto-generated content hurts SEO in the long run. One-click marketing strategy generators? Hard pass. Deepfakes & AI Influencers Increasing use of AI-generated personas to push products deceptively. Danger of consumers being misled by realistic but fake endorsements. The Future of Marketing & AI AI will not replace everyone—but will replace some. “It's a force multiplier for the great. A replacement for the mediocre.” Use AI to do more, faster—but don't skip thinking and strategy. To thrive, marketers must master the human elements: storytelling, empathy, strategy, and creativity.
