If a brand is no longer what a company says it is, but the sum of every experience a customer has, what does that mean for the marketing department's role in the organization?Agility requires more than just adapting to market changes; it demands a fundamental shift from broadcasting a message to engineering an experience. It requires a willingness to unlearn old definitions of brand and embrace a new reality where customer perception is the ultimate truth.Today, we're going to talk about what some are calling a "reformation" in branding. It's a move away from the traditional model of logos, slogans, and campaigns, and toward a new understanding where the brand is the cumulative effect of every single customer interaction. This shift has massive implications for organizational structure, strategy, and how we measure success.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Lou Carbone, Professor of Practice, Michigan State University & Founder/Chief Experience Officer at Experience Engineering.

What if the marketing playbook you've relied on for the past decade is quickly failing to get results? When customers rapidly shift their behaviors, agility requires being willing to rethink how you build and earn customer relationships from the ground up.Today, we're going to talk about the shift away from rented audiences and unreliable signals toward building durable, first-party data assets. Specifically, we'll cover:- Why the classic B2B and B2C buyer intent signals are becoming less reliable and what to look for instead.- How to navigate a new era of marketing measurement when privacy regulations and platform changes obscure the full picture.- The practical steps required to build a first-party data strategy that creates durable customer relationships, not just a larger database.To help me discuss this, I'd like to welcome, Alexi Hatch, CMO at Acoustic.

Are the platforms you rely on most for growth also the biggest barriers to understanding it?Agility requires a clear view of the entire customer journey, not just the isolated moments within a single platform. This means brands must adapt their strategies to operate effectively across the open internet, not just within its walled gardens.Today, we're going to talk about a fundamental disconnect in modern marketing: while AI is enabling a consumer journey that is more fluid and dynamic than ever, many marketers are still planning, executing, and measuring their efforts in platform-specific silos. This can create a distorted view of performance and limit a brand's ability to drive real growth.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Todd Parsons, Chief Product Officer & President of Performance Media at Criteo.

GenAI has industrialized social engineering. The human entry point is now automated, personalized, and scalable, and that changes how security leaders must defend. In this #shifthappens episode, Andrew Carr, Managing Director and Global Head of Threat Management for Booz Allen Hamilton's Commercial Incident Response team, joins AvePoint Chief Brand Officer Dux Raymond Sy and AvePoint Chief Risk, Privacy, and Information Security Officer Dana Simberkoff to unpack what's genuinely new about AI-driven attacks — and what organizations need to do about it. Drawing on frontline incident response across healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and more, Andrew explains why attackers no longer need to compromise systems to extract millions, why built-in trust is now a liability, and why the fundamentals that have been ignored for too long – zero trust, data classification, least privilege – are exactly what this moment demands. He also breaks down how AI should be used in defense: not as autopilot, but as a human-augmented layer that triages, prioritizes, and buys decision-makers the time they no longer have.

This can create a distorted view of performance and limit a brand's ability to drive real growth.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Todd Parsons, Chief Product Officer & President of Performance Media at Criteo.

OpenAI's new ChatGPT Work is on fire.
In the final episode of Season 16, Julia Wagemann speaks with Phil Cooper, Geospatial Global Tech BD for the Amazon Public Sector team, and Nadine Alameh, Founder of LunateAI and former CEO of the Open Geospatial Consortium. The conversation closes the GenAI for Geospatial Challenge takeover by looking beyond the individual prototypes and asking what this moment means for the wider geospatial industry. Phil reflects on the evolution of Earth observation from a time when researchers might spend months analysing a single satellite image to today's world of petabyte-scale data, cloud infrastructure and AI-enabled analysis. Generative and agentic AI are now helping organisations engage with geospatial data without needing years of specialist experience, opening the field to new industries, users and ideas. Nadine describes this as a moment in which anyone with a strong idea can begin turning it into a prototype, solution or business. She also reflects on the Challenge's role in demonstrating the art of the possible, lowering barriers and supporting teams working on meaningful problems across climate, health, oceans, infrastructure, insurance and spatial intelligence. The episode explores the patterns that emerged across the 14 winning teams. Unlike earlier experiments focused primarily on the technology itself, many of this year's projects were grounded in specific domain challenges, including methane monitoring, malaria planning, cocoa supply-chain transparency, marine intelligence, disaster risk and insurance. Phil and Nadine also discuss the rapid move from generative AI towards agentic systems, multimodal geospatial foundation models and natural-language interfaces. As these tools become more operational, the conversation turns to trust, data governance, standards, provenance and the need to help users understand where information comes from and how it has been processed. The episode also considers which sectors may adopt geospatial AI first, why energy and finance are already moving quickly, and how geospatial intelligence could become embedded into everyday decision-making across industries.

Of course you need data to fuel your AI. You know what's just as helpful though?
Not all work happens in writing. Teams that work with photos, videos, and audio need AI that works for them too. This is why, with Dropbox, you can search within multimedia content for key moments and important information—not just text. In this episode, we talk with Appu Shaji and Hicham Badri, two Dropbox machine learning engineers who are part of the team that makes all of this possible. They explain how multimodal search works—from understanding the context of the initial query, to identifying objects and actions in complex scenes—and how they ensure those models work fast, even at Dropbox-scale. ~ ~ ~ Working Smarter is brought to you by Dropbox. Find, organize, and share your work—all in one place—with context-aware AI from Dropbox.

Most CDOs are still measuring AI readiness with a BI-readiness checklist and it's costing them. 80 to 90 percent of enterprise data is unstructured, sitting outside every governance program built over the last three decades.
Canada's General Fusion is now the first publicly traded nuclear fusion company, as its Nasdaq debut gives it more cash to chase a breakthrough that could one day help meet soaring demand for clean power — if the still-unproven tech can finally produce more energy than it uses. Plus, doctors are warning about a tick-borne illness that was barely on their radar five years ago, as warming temperatures help ticks spread farther north and bring more diseases with them.And in The Big Picture: Ottawa and Alberta strike a deal with oil sands producers on a major carbon capture project, an Innu First Nation rejects Quebec's proposed hydro deal, and Chinese automaker Dongfeng gets ready to sell EVs in Canada.After today's interview we host an exclusive interview with Sumee Seetharaman, VP of AI/ML Practice in the Center of Excellence at TD:Brett:Hey, Peak Pals. Thanks so much for joining us today. We've got a great guest for you, Sumee Seetharaman, who is the VP of AI/ML Practice in the Center of Excellence at TD. This is gonna be a great conversation about AI at work, something I think we're all experiencing, so we're really excited to have you. To kick it off, the use of AI in Canadian workspaces is surging. According to KPMG, about 51% of Canadian adults are now using generative AI at work. Has the technology become just so commonplace in the workplace that Canadians need to have AI skills before they enter the workforce? And if so, which skills do they need? Sumee:Yeah, it's a great question. Interestingly, we're at a point where the personal use of AI is far exceeding use at work, a March 2026 Angus Reid survey found that over 70% of Canadians surveyed had used AI in the previous three months for personal use. So odds are that most folks are actively using AI for their day-to-day already and have some of the basic AI skills required at work. Skills like knowing how to use and prompt a chatbot effectively, and I'm not talking about just a single Q&A, but really knowing how to converse with the model. Treating, the response to your initial question as just the starting point. Knowing how to ask follow-up questions and providing clear instructions to refine the response. So the fluency is in really knowing how to iterate and refine, building out the parts that are missing, and pruning out the parts that don't feel right? Most people are learning to do this instinctively as they're using ChatGPT and Gemini apps. Next, I want to say folks who are using AI regularly are also starting to develop a good sense of the strengths and the limitations of the technology, right? All of us have encountered that the model sometimes hallucinates, and so we know and we've learned that we cannot treat the output of the model as gospel. And so in a work setting, this is where domain expertise, not AI expertise, is actually more helpful because we need experts to validate and apply human judgment on the output of the model. And also if you're actively using AI and reading on AI, AI can be used in harmful ways, so most folks are starting to develop an appreciation for the guardrails that are needed and what does responsible use of AI look like. And are careful about what you put into public versions of these models. You're starting to build a good awareness of privacy safeguards and such. All that to say if you're familiar with using ChatGPT or Gemini for personal use- You should be able to fluently use most AI tools in the workplace. So at TD, over seventy percent of our colleagues our workforce has access to a GenAI capability, whether it's virtual assistants that we have developed in-house for our frontline colleagues in contact centers or wealth operations or branches, or Copilot capabilities we've enabled across the organization. GitHub Copilot for developers and Power BI Copilot and Office 365 Copilot. So chances are, if you're joining TD, you have access to these AI capabilities to, to really amplify your impact, and you probably are already quite fluent in how to use them. Brett:TD is obviously ahead of the curve on AI, and I'd be interested from a practical standpoint, what are some examples of jobs at TD that AI is already transforming? Sumee:Yeah. So we recently announced our first agentic AI use case to, to speed up the pre-adjudication process of mortgage and HELOC applications. So when an application is submitted, AI agents that we've deployed are actively scanning the documents, calculating client income, performing consent checks, looking for discrepancies, et cetera. After this sort of document review process is done, the agents then produce a memo with their findings and this goes off to the underwriters to review and make a decision on the application. And so if you look through that agentic AI activation, it's transformed the jobs of colleagues like our underwriters who are now working hand-in-hand with AI agents and making decisions on applications much faster. We've gotten the review process down to an average of three minutes from an average of fifteen hours. Effectively, the way they're operating has transformed day-to-day. If I look at the role of our back-office staff that has transformed as well. They're now providing valuable oversight on our AI agents and helping us ensure that it's performing within the necessary parameters and it's delivering the right outputs. It's just the first set of use cases supporting the first pre-adjudication leg, but there's a much broader end-to-end transformation roadmap for our real estate secure lending operations. So we're just getting started. And as we gradually scale AI use within RESL operations, we'll start to see more role transformation across the board. On a similar vein I find the roles of our frontline colleagues are gradually evolving, transforming too. So our colleagues in branches are now using gen AI virtual assistants to help prepare for client meetings, answer complex questions effectively. Our colleagues in TD Securities are now using these virtual assistants to speed up the research process and really amplify the sales cycle. So across our frontline, our new hires now have an expert AI support on their fingertips, which means they can now spend far more time focusing on sales advice, deepening relationships with our clients. So slowly but surely, we see these roles evolving, getting actually much, much more client-focused and less manual work and less operational focus, if you will. Brett:What is TD doing to help train and upskill colleagues so that they can build the AI skills they need to thrive in these transformed roles? And I guess how do upskilling efforts differ for an individual who's a beginner with AI versus a new hire at Layer 6 who's looking to build their AI skills? Sumee:Yeah, it's a great question. We're actually employing a multi-pronged training strategy for AI across the organization. Obviously it's customized to your function, your role within the organization, but it takes many formats. It could be trainings, recordings, live, virtual or in-person immersive hands-on sessions, hackathons, longer-term programs and pilots, et cetera. Across the gamut, depending on the role you're in, depending upon the function you're in. I'll maybe talk about a few initiatives, what we've rolled out across the organization. The first one I'll highlight is TD Thrive, which is our enterprise learning platform. It has dozens of AI courses that are available on demand to every TD colleague, and these cover a broad spectrum of topics from one-on-one sessions like getting started on LLMs to very advanced, architecture of agentic systems, as an examp...
With brands being defined by every customer interaction, who is really in charge of your customer experience: your C-suite, or your frontline employees?Agility requires more than just the right technology; it demands a culture where empowered teams can make decisions and respond to customer needs in the moment.Today, we're going to talk about building a brand from the inside out, focusing on the powerful connection between internal culture and external customer experience. We'll explore:- How a "reverse pyramid" leadership model can directly impact customer experience and brand perception.- Translating core values into an operational framework that empowers employees and fosters accountability.- The principles of scaling a culture of empowerment as a brand grows from a single location to a global presence.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Rick Rosenfield, Co-Founder at California Pizza Kitchen, and author of the new book, The California Pizza Kitchen Story.

Anthropic had a really bad week.
No one gets fired for doing what McKinsey says. That's not a joke, it's the actual product being sold in half of enterprise consulting: credibility a board can point to when a decision goes wrong. This week, Tim Lidman, founder of Clyde and formerly of a collaboration platform absorbed into Accenture in 2021, argues that AI won't replace that function — and says so without flinching, even though it means some prospective customers will balk.Tim also shares why he thinks “human in the loop” is such a dehumanizing turn of phrase.The conversation moves through the politics that quietly derail group decisions, the trap of building for experts at the expense of everyone else, and a real case where a district court judge canceled a trial because both sides had submitted AI-generated arguments neither side had bothered to check.And this episode ends somewhere unexpected: a founder building frontier AI for a living who gives his own children zero screen time, and why he thinks boredom is the skill nobody is protecting anymore.Mentioned: Deloitte Canada's GenAI snafu citing made up research• • Judge cancels trial after finding out both sides use AI

Why do so many PhDs and senior professors feel guilty… about not keeping on top of the literature?I've struggled with this for 20 years.And I don't think it's because we're not trying.It's because the way we do this today… just doesn't work.⸻One of the challenges that we have is keeping on top of the literature in our respective areas.There's too much.A lot of it doesn't feel right.Some of it is just not that relevant.And, yes, some of it is junk science.⸻So what do we do?We fall behind.And we carry that around.⸻What we're trying to do with the R3ciprocity platform is fix that.Not with more information.But by changing how you engage with it.⸻You choose between two abstracts.You pick which one you like.It's a simple game.You earn points.You play.⸻We've had this on the platform since November.I've integrated it into my classes.And what I've seen has been mind blowing.⸻Undergraduate business students: • built a 3D model of the brain • created a functional subletting appI have never seen this before.⸻But there was something missing.The abstracts were random.⸻So we added a new layer.A filter.Machine learning in the background.Classic reinforcement learning.⸻Now it learns what you care about.Very quickly.⸻I tried it last night.The first article it showed me was my advisor.The second was a leading scholar in my field.⸻I was blown away.⸻And this is important:This is not Gen AI generating a bunch of crap.This is the real scientific corpus.Real articles.⸻But now it's: • fun • unintimidating • fast⸻For the first time in 20 years…I feel like I can stay on top of the literature.In tiny little intervals.In a way that actually fits how life works.⸻It's honestly a bit dangerous…because it feels like a game.But I'm actually doing my work.⸻I'm extraordinarily enthusiastic about this.I really think this changes the research world.⸻If you're honest… what's your biggest struggle in keeping up with the literature?
What if the biggest obstacle to AI-driven ROI isn't the AI itself, but everything you're feeding it?Agility requires not just the speed to adopt new technologies like AI, but the clarity to recognize when foundational elements, like your data strategy, must be fixed first to unlock true potential.Today, we're going to talk about the intense pressure on revenue and marketing leaders to demonstrate ROI from AI. We'll explore the counterintuitive idea that simply chasing 'better AI' is a distraction, and that the real gains come from addressing the foundational data gaps that plague most organizations.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Ann Davis, Chief Revenue Officer at Crunchbase.

Open AI ha annunciato il rilascio di 3 nuove versioni di GPT-5.6 e lanciato ChatGPT Work. Con Vincenzo Cosenza, esperto di AI, vediamo in cosa si differenziano tra loro e quali caratteristiche hanno questi nuovi modelli e cosa sappiamo di Fable 5, il modello di intelligenza artificiale più potente di Anthropic per il pubblico.Cresce il mercato dell'ettronica di consumo in Italia che nei primi 5 mesi dell'anno ha fatto registrare un +5% rispetto allo stesso periodo dell'anno scorso. "Tra i settori più performanti quello dei notebook che segna un +20%, stessa cosa anche per i tablet, che l'anno scorso sembravano un prodotto dato quasi per morto" spiega Fabrizio Marazzi, Product Leader Western Europe in Nielsen IQ.Compriamo on line sempre più spesso (il mercato vale circa il 30% del totale acquisti) e sempre più spesso cerchiamo prodotto tramite i sistemi di Intelligenza Artificiale Generativa. "È un cambiamento anche antropologico" dice Nereo Sciutto, fondatore e amministratore delegato di Webranking.E come sempre in Digital News le notizie di innovazione e tecnologia più importanti della settimana.
Record companies want AI music to be disclosed And they've got a bunch of other groups onboard too – American Association of Independent Music, the Grammys, SAG-AFTRA, and the Human Artistry Campaign. They want two different classifications: 1) AI-Generated. 2) AI-Assisted, which would mean it was created primarily by humans but used AI for some elements. They have designed a symbol too, which they would expect to be on the cover art like an "explicit content" warning. The recording industry says fans are open to listening to AI music, they just want to know it's AI generated. So, if we're being a purist... is a synthesizer generated? Spotify today will show AI usage in song credits and Apple Music has introduced “transparency tags”, but it seems this label requires someone to say it was AI generated, rather than proving it was human generated. The EU is holding its position to increase competition in the tech space The accounting and workplace software giant SAP is going to make it easier for companies to switch to a rival service, all because of the EU's competition rules. The decision means they avoid a massive fine. They're going to make it easier to cancel a contract, as well as export data. Apple too lost its latest court case challenging the EU Digital Markets Act. The court has ruled that the iOS operating system and the App Store are "gatekeepers". That means they'd be forced to allow alternative app stores, direct installs of apps, alternative payment systems, different web browsers, and access to hardware features like tap-to-pay and more. iMessage though is not designated as a gatekeeper, which means we won't see the EU force the blue chat bubbles to become more interoperable. Apple says this will "erode decades of privacy and security protections". LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we step back from our case study (covered in Episode 1 Parts One and Two) to address a key question: how does GenAI compare to technology-assisted review (TAR)? David Beck (Head of eDiscovery UK & EMEA), Meghan Ryan (Senior Manager, eDiscovery) and Danbee Kim (Head of Digital Legal, US) cut through the hype to explore how these technologies work in practice. They examine why TAR remains central to large-scale review - particularly for precision, consistency and defensibility - and where GenAI adds value, including contextual insight and early case analysis. Drawing on real-world experience, they show why GenAI is often reinforcing (not replacing) TAR, and reframe the debate around a more practical question: what is the right approach for the matter, the data and the client?
We just returned from three inspiring days at AI in the Alps, and in this episode, we dive into the most exciting breakthroughs and honest challenges facing industrial AI today. I share my firsthand impressions of revolutionary tools like TiRex-2, and we unpack what agentic AI really means for engineering, from breaking down data silos to transforming anomaly detection. Alongside Stefan Suwelack from Renumics, we discuss why skepticism has given way to optimism, how data infrastructure is finally catching up, and what the future holds for AI-driven organizations. The conversation is loaded with real-world examples, candid reflections, and a look at the evolving balance between sovereignty, open source, and big tech. Whether you're an engineer, decision-maker, or just curious about the future of AI in industry, this episode offers practical insights and a glimpse into what's next.
In Episode 3 of Season 16, Sabrina Szeto speaks with Dr Cormac Purcell, astrophysicist turned geospatial scientist at BolgiaTen. BolgiaTen's project, developed through the GenAI for Geospatial Challenge, focuses on marine domain awareness: helping users understand where vessels are, what they are doing, and whether their reported movements can be trusted. The project addresses a major challenge in maritime intelligence. Automatic Identification System, or AIS, data is widely used to track vessels, but it is based on an open trust system and can be affected by GPS jamming, spoofing, or deliberate manipulation. This matters because incorrect or falsified vessel positions can have real consequences, from insurance risk and sanctions compliance to dark port calls, ship-to-ship transfers and activity in protected marine areas. In this conversation, Cormac explains how BolgiaTen combines AIS data, vessel context, ownership and maintenance information, and Earth observation data from open and commercial sources to build a more reliable picture of vessel behaviour. The episode also explores the role of generative AI in the project. BolgiaTen uses foundation models to accelerate vessel detection in Earth observation imagery and generative AI to support a natural language interface for the analysis pipeline. What once required specialist analysts to process imagery, interpret results and answer business questions can increasingly be supported through an agentic interface that helps orchestrate the workflow. Cormac also shares how AWS cloud credits helped the team move beyond an isolated prototype towards a more professional deployment pathway, closer to the environment used by their partner Lloyd's List Intelligence. The credits supported experimentation, integration and a higher technology readiness level prototype that can be tested with customers more quickly. The conversation also covers the importance of customer education: helping business users understand what Earth observation can and cannot do, how resolution, cadence, coverage and cost shape what is possible, and why clear communication of uncertainty is just as important as the underlying science.

Cheryl Ericson is a veteran, in every sense of the word. Someone who has seen and experienced a lot in the CDI profession—and so has a wealth of knowledge and wisdom to confer. I go back a long way with Cheryl, to early ACDIS days when she was the lead educator of the CDI Boot Camp and developed the organization's educational curriculum. She's had a few stops since then but settled in nicely as Senior Director of Clinical Policy and Education at The Brundage Group. Cheryl is a shrewd, incisive observer of the CDI field, with a rich history of where we've been but also where we need to go. Recently she's weighed in on some big mid-revenue cycle topics for ICD-10 Monitor which I read with avid interest (and recommend you do too). In this week's episode we hit on a few of those topics, along with a bit of a look into her life and career. Listen in as we discuss: Formative background in nursing and entry point into CDI at MUSC. Thoughts on the new/2026 ACDIS/AHIMA query brief (currently in draft stage)--concerns with clinical indicators, her belief they are unique to each patient and may not meet guidelines established by payers: “It is not about determining if a condition exists; it should be about deciding if the physician has a reasonable expectation to treat the condition,” she writes. “Rather than asking if the condition exists, CDI and coding professionals should determine if it ‘was it reasonable for the provider to diagnose and treat the condition as if it exists.'” Pushing query compliance down to the end user—is this how the new brief reads, and if so, is it a fair expectation? Artificial intelligence: State of current tools and limitations. “GenAI tools show great promise in many areas, but for now, it does not appear capable of performing the type of complex critical thinking required for accurate inpatient coding and billing,” Cheryl observes. (Incorrect) payer allegations of hospital “upcoding,” using the example of acute blood loss anemia ACDIS heydays: A look back on teaching and educating. Her personal health journey, story of breast cancer and her husband's simultaneous serious illness, and how it transformed her outlook on life. Sharing wisdom and lessons learned: Career advice to a new or young CDI professional—what has she learned to pass along to the next generation?
In Episode 2 of Season 16, Julia Wagemann speaks with Reda Haidar, Commercial Director at RASID. RASID's project, GoPilot, is an agentic Earth observation platform developed through the GenAI for Geospatial Challenge. It allows users to ask questions in natural language and receive clear, evidence-backed geospatial intelligence without needing to manually search satellite archives, download imagery or run complex workflows. The project began with a focused use case around methane monitoring, using RASID's Methane Mapper system to detect methane emissions from satellite imagery. During the Challenge, the team realised that the same architecture could support a much wider set of Earth observation workflows, from agriculture and environmental monitoring to infrastructure analysis and change detection. In this conversation, Reda explains how generative AI acts as the reasoning layer in GoPilot: understanding user intent, selecting the right tools, retrieving relevant data, coordinating analytical workflows and synthesising results into actionable answers. The episode also explores the role of AWS cloud credits in helping the team experiment at scale, including the generation of more than 100,000 synthetic methane plumes, model training, and the development of an agentic geospatial platform using AWS tools and infrastructure.
