Ajay Patel is the General Manager of Apptio and IBM IT automation. He and Kieron Allen sat down to talk about how enterprises are transitioning from AI experimentation to real business impact. They explored key challenges like cost transparency, governance, and data readiness, as well as the rise of agentic AI to automate workflows at scale. Ajay also introduced Apptio's new AI TCO and Usage tool, designed to help CIOs and CFOs measure and optimize AI investments.Smart Spending on AI The Big Themes:Enterprises Are Moving Beyond AI Experiments to Strategic Deployment: The era of AI experimentation is over. Enterprises are now actively deploying AI, particularly in sales, service operations, and software development. However, those achieving meaningful impact are taking a strategic approach, rather than letting teams experiment in silos. The C-suite increasingly sees AI as critical, but that value perception isn't always shared by the wider workforce.AI and IT Budgets: AI now consumes more than 20% of IT budgets, yet overall tech spending is only increasing 4–5%. This creates a 10–15% gap, leading companies to “forward fund” AI initiatives by reallocating from other areas. A key challenge: there's no standardized pricing for AI. To address this, IBM's Apptio launched the AI TCO and Usage solution. It helps CIOs and CFOs baseline current AI investments, measure unit economics, and identify areas to optimize or expand.Agentic AI, the Next Frontier: Agentic AI is key to scaling beyond isolated use cases. It enables automation at scale and connects AI investment to tangible business outcomes. From cost savings in infrastructure to better visibility in FinOps to boosting customer experience, the ROI is clear when deployed correctly. But none of this happens without data readiness, governance, and strategic clarity.The Big Quote: "AI TCO solution fundamentally starts by giving CIOs [and] CFOs in the business a complete view of where the tech spending and AI spending is, and what stage is that? Is it in a pilot phase? Is it for training models?"Learn more:Connect with Ajay Patel on LinkedIn and learn more about Apptio. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Thomas Winstanley, EVP, General Manager of Edibles.com discussed the severe implications of Texas Senate Bill 3, which proposes a ban on hemp-derived THC products. He highlighted the bill's flawed reasoning, arguing that it disregards consumer demand for safe THC access and would lead to the closure of thousands of businesses and job losses for tens of thousands of workers. Winstanley criticized the political motivations behind the bill, suggesting they are not rooted in genuine health concerns and would instead foster an unregulated illicit market. He emphasized that an outright ban fails to address underlying issues in the hemp industry, and Texas is missing an opportunity to establish a sensible regulatory framework.Winstanley further pointed out the double standards in Texas regulations, contrasting the proposed hemp ban with the state's approach to alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, none of which face similar bans despite documented harms. He noted the strong opposition to SB3, particularly from veterans who rely on hemp products for pain management and fear a return to opioid dependence. Winstanley expressed disappointment that legislative attempts to regulate the industry with THC caps and licensing were ultimately overridden by the ban proposal.Regarding edibles.com, Winstanley explained that the company aims to provide safe access to THC products through a curated marketplace, addressing inconsistencies in quality and testing within the hemp industry. The strategic launch in Texas is a proof of concept for future expansion into states like Florida and Georgia, with plans for nationwide shipping and a flagship retail store in Atlanta. The company's goal is to build consumer trust and legitimacy by connecting them with reputable brands and offering a responsible alternative to unregulated sales.

In 16 years, The Kingdom Centers has provided emergency shelter and transitional living centers for over 3000 women and their children. Sam saw suffering in other marginalized communities so in 2014 he founded Treasured Harvest, whose mission remains to provide food and other much-needed resources for migrant farm workers and their families. And Sam has helped provide immigration assistance to these workers. Sam then saw the need to help parents provide a better education for their children in the K-12 public-school system. He founded Revive Academies in 2023 which provides a high-quality, low-cost alternative to public education to Ventura County families. Sam is the senior pastor of Embrace! Church in Oxnard. He is a featured speaker in the areas of business, travel and faith. Sam wrote ‘More than Animals' in 2022 which addresses how to solve the homeless crisis in California and ‘A Love That Nobody Wants' which chronicles his service to those experiencing homelessness. Sam loves California and is a lifelong resident. He lived in Thousand Oaks for 20 years raising his family, and for the past 17 years lives in Oxnard where he is serving the community. He has 3 children and 9 grandchildren and lives in Oxnard with his wife Toni. ​Share this episode with a friend and we wish you a wonderful Independence Day!   How to contact Sam Gallucci:   Sam Gallucci Official Website     How to contact Dr. Bob: Dr. Bob on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChztMVtPCLJkiXvv7H5tpDQ Dr. Bob on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drroberthamilton/ Dr. Bob on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bob.hamilton.1656 Dr. Bob's Seven Secrets Of The Newborn website: https://7secretsofthenewborn.com/ Dr. Bob's website: https://roberthamiltonmd.com/ Pacific Ocean Pediatrics: http://www.pacificoceanpediatrics.com/

 People around wine countries often know him by his codename Agent Cru. That is because he is an undercover CEO of Wine Spies, a wine e-tailer and eCommerce technology company. Since 2007, they have featured a brand-new wine on their site every single day at the best price on planet Earth for a 24-hour window. He cut his teeth as a "cellar rat" scrubbing barrels at his family's winery, eventually working his way up to General Manager. He started his own brand, Jurassic.Wines before going on an epic mission at Wine Spies to reinvigorate a well-established company with little growth, but massive potential.Wine is a very unusual product. It is heavy, fragile, perishable and highly regulated, making it exceedingly difficult to ship. It is subjective art at the mercy of critics and writers. It is a commodity with a great deal of price sensitivity. It is an industry deeply about relationships and connections. It is a business steeped in traditional practices. It is an agricultural business, and it is a high-tech business.Because it is so multi-faceted, an expert with a good understanding of these many aspects of the industry has some cool insight into how all these integrate to get your wine into your glass. He would be happy to chat about the things he has learned in his 12-year journey through the industry. They are not a wine club. There is no subscription.

Welding isn't just sparks and heat—it's an essential (and often misunderstood) part of modern manufacturing. In this conversation, Ami Spira, General Manager of Civan Lasers USA, joins me to talk about the state of the art in welding technology and why laser welding is making such a big impact.We cover how different welding methods work, what makes laser welding unique, and why Civan's dynamic beam shaping enables new capabilities that weren't possible before. We also dig into the engineering behind keyhole formation, melt pool control, and how to join dissimilar materials like aluminum and copper without compromising strength or conductivity. If you're designing or building physical products, there's a lot to take away here.This isn't surface-level talk. It's a deep dive into the physics, materials science, and decision-making that go into modern manufacturing—and the cool engineering work that's pushing it forward.About AmiAmi Spira is the General Manager of Civan Lasers USA. He's been with the company for over seven years, previously leading marketing and business development efforts before taking on the US leadership role in early 2024. Ami's background spans B2B photonics, law, and business, but what stands out is how clearly he understands both the technical and strategic side of building something meaningful.About Civan LasersCivan Lasers is pioneering Dynamic Beam Laser (DBL) technology, making it possible to weld thick and complex materials with speed, precision, and control. Their high-power, single-mode lasers with programmable beam shaping are enabling new possibilities in manufacturing, from automotive to aerospace to additive.WebsiteLinkedInKey TakeawaysTraditional welding methods (like arc welding and MIG/TIG) are still widely used, but they have limitations in precision and speed.Laser welding uses a highly concentrated stream of photons to deliver fast, precise joins with minimal heat-affected zones.Dynamic beam shaping allows engineers to tailor the weld geometry, reduce defects, and join dissimilar or difficult materials.Laser welding is unlocking new possibilities for materials like high-strength aluminum, diecast alloys, and copper-aluminum connections.The ability to control the melt pool and keyhole in real-time is critical for quality and repeatability.Manufacturing and design go hand-in-hand. Engineers who understand welding limitations can design better, more efficient parts.Advances in automation and AI are reshaping how welding processes are developed, optimized, and executed.Real innovation doesn't just happen in new product design—it's alive and well in how we build things, too.ChaptersIntro to Laser Welding and Civan's RoleWelding Basics: Arc, Friction, and LaserChallenges of Material Properties and Dissimilar JoinsWhat Makes Dynamic Beam Shaping UniqueHow Lasers Penetrate Thick Sections with PrecisionDesign for Manufacturing: Why Welding Considerations MatterDiecasting, AI, and What's Next for Welding InnovationReflections on the Role of Engineering in Building the Future
