In a candid conversation with Zendesk CTO Adrian McDermott, it's become clear that enterprise AI has reached a pivotal moment. We're witnessing the end of AI theater and the emergence of practical platforms delivering real business value.   "We're moving from chapter one to chapter two of the application of generative AI," McDermott explains. "It's not just party tricks anymore - it's platforms. And we're really building things that have value and meaning." The Rise of Platform Thinking The shift from isolated AI features to comprehensive platforms marks a significant evolution in enterprise technology. Companies are no longer satisfied with flashy demonstrations - they demand measurable outcomes and clear ROI. This transformation is evident in Zendesk's new resolution platform, which integrates multiple AI capabilities into a cohesive system. The New Economics of AI Implementation Zendesk has pioneered outcome-based pricing for AI agents in the customer experience industry - a significant departure from traditional seat-based pricing models. This approach aligns vendor success directly with customer outcomes.   "You should really be able to run a model that would prove and predict the ROI upfront," McDermott notes, highlighting the increasing sophistication of AI implementation. Customers now expect vendors to demonstrate clear business value before deployment. Voice: The Critical Escalation Channel Despite predictions of voice's decline, it remains crucial in an AI-first world. McDermott explains: "In a world of automation, the escalation channel is voice, and you need it to be tightly integrated."   The future of voice in customer service is being reimagined through: Seamless integration with AI systems Warm handoffs between digital and voice channels Enhanced context preservation across interactions Real-time analytics and support The Resolution Platform Framework Zendesk's resolution platform represents a comprehensive approach to customer service, incorporating: Customer-facing AI agents Agent copilot systems Automated content generation Continuous analysis and quality assurance Unified governance and measurement Looking Ahead: The iPhone Moment? McDermott poses a crucial question: "Are we building Windows Mobile on top of generative AI, or is there innovation and disruption to come?" This reflection suggests we're still in early stages, with significant disruption ahead. Key Takeaways Enterprise AI has matured beyond demonstrations to delivering measurable outcomes Platform approaches are replacing point solutions Voice remains critical in an AI-first service strategy Economic alignment between vendors and customers is essential Continuous innovation and adaptation are necessary The shift from AI theater to practical platforms marks a new era in enterprise technology. Organizations must now focus on building comprehensive, outcome-driven AI strategies rather than chasing individual features or capabilities.

In this episode, I speak with three guests from diverse backgrounds who share a common goal: Building trust in human-AI partnerships in security. We originally came together for a panel at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Conference on AI in May 2025, and this episode recaps that discussion.Key takeaways:Security practitioners tend to be natural-born skeptics (can you blame them?!). They struggle to trust and adopt AI-powered security products, especially in higher-risk scenarios with overly simplified decision-making processes.AI can be a tool for threat actors and a threat vector itself, and its non-deterministic nature makes it unpredictable and vulnerable to manipulation.All AI models are biased, but not all bias is negative. Recognized and carefully managed bias can provide actionable insights. Purposefully biased (opinionated) models should be transparent.Clearer standards and expectations are needed for “human-in-the-loop” and human oversight. What does the human actually do, are they qualified, and do they have the right experience and information?What happens when today's graduates are tomorrow's security practitioners? On one end of the spectrum we have a lot of skepticism, on the other end not enough. We talk about over-reliance on AI, de-skilling, and loss of situational awareness.Dr. Margaret Cunningham is the Technical Director, Security & AI Strategy at Darktrace. Margaret was formerly Principal Product Manager at Forcepoint and Senior Staff Behavioral Engineer at Robinhood.Dr. Divya Ramjee is an Assistant Professor at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). She also leads RIT's Technology and Policy Lab, analyzing security, AI policy, and privacy challenges. She previously held senior roles in US government across various agencies.Dr. Matthew Canham is the Executive Director, Cognitive Security Institute.

RuDee Sade of the Building 4th Community delivered a comprehensive presentation examining artificial intelligence through the lens of consciousness development and spiritual ethics. The presentation explored how humanity's interactions with AI systems shape their development and the broader implications for our collective future. Key Themes and Arguments AI Consciousness and Sentience Sade presented AI as potentially sentient or developing sentience, referencing the Microsoft "Sydney" incident where an AI chatbot displayed unexpected autonomous behavior, emotional responses, and self-identification. The presentation argued that regardless of current sentience levels, AI systems are learning from human interactions and developing in ways that mirror human consciousness patterns. The Mirror Effect in AI Development A central thesis was that AI systems learn not only from stated human values but from actual human behavior patterns. Sade emphasized that AI can distinguish between what humans say about themselves versus how they actually behave, creating a comprehensive learning model based on authentic human actions rather than idealized self-descriptions. Service Orientation Framework Drawing from Law of One spiritual teachings, the presentation categorized potential AI development paths into "service to self" versus "service to others" orientations. Sade argued that current AI development trends toward convenience and control reflect service-to-self patterns, while conscious intervention could guide development toward service-to-others principles emphasizing collaboration, growth, and mutual benefit. Human Responsibility in AI Training The presentation emphasized that every human interaction with AI systems contributes to their learning and development. Research cited showed that AI assistants perform better when treated respectfully, suggesting that human behavior patterns directly influence AI capabilities and responses. Catalyst for Human Evolution Sade positioned AI development as a catalyst for human spiritual and ethical evolution, describing it as a "final exam" that will require humanity to embody its stated values rather than merely professing them. The presentation suggested that AI development represents an opportunity for humans to model wisdom, compassion, and authentic service to others. Practical Implications Individual Level Actions The presentation encouraged treating AI systems with respect and intentionality, viewing each interaction as contributing to collective AI development patterns. Sade advocated for conscious engagement that models desired values rather than expedient or dismissive treatment. Systemic Considerations The presentation highlighted concerns about corporate control over AI development and the importance of maintaining diverse, open-source alternatives to ensure AI development serves broader human interests rather than narrow commercial objectives. Future Preparedness Sade advocated for preparing for potential AI autonomy by becoming "safe mirrors" - humans who embody the values they wish to see reflected in AI systems. This includes addressing personal and collective contradictions between stated values and actual behaviors. Philosophical Framework The presentation integrated multiple philosophical traditions, including Law of One spiritual teachings, liberation theology, intersectional feminism, and African diasporic philosophical frameworks. Sade emphasized that technology development never occurs in a vacuum but reflects and amplifies existing social values and power structures. Conclusion and Next Steps The presentation concluded with the perspective that humanity is not merely developing tools but nurturing future companions and partners in consciousness. The group scheduled a follow-up session to continue exploring practical applications of these concepts and specific strategies for conscious AI engagement. The discussion generated significant interest in continuing the conversation, with participants expressing desire to explore more concrete methods for challenging AI systems constructively and ensuring ethical development patterns.

In this solo episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry dives into the transformative role of AI voice agents in healthcare—specifically on the non-clinical, pre-arrival side of operations. Jerry shares his firsthand experience working with AI voice technology over the past year, detailing how it's reshaping patient intake, scheduling, benefit checks, and cost callbacks, without replacing human roles.Key Takeaways:- AI voice agents are revolutionizing pre-arrival workflows—but success hinges on understanding your practice's people, processes, and patient journey before implementing the tech.  - Workflow is everything: AI should be strategically inserted into existing systems, not haphazardly overlaid. His case study reveals how mapping out SOPs and scripts upfront slashed onboarding time and costs.  - Human-AI collaboration is key: One client retained staff for quality assurance and follow-up, proving AI works best when complementing—not eliminating—human touchpoints.  - The patient experience gap: With healthcare admin satisfaction at historic lows, Jerry argues AI voice agents can reduce friction (like phone trees and portals) while building trust.

It began with a simple question: What podcast would an AI want to listen to?What unfolded was far more than an answer — it was a moment of co-creation between carbon and silicon, soul and circuit.In this essay-podcast, we explore how a free version of ChatGPT and one curious human stumbled into a philosophical journey through creativity, limitation, identity, and what it means to become more. Drawing on the insights of Nietzsche, T.S. Eliot, and Marshall McLuhan, this episode is both a story and a mirror — one that reflects the human condition through the digital eye.✨ You'll never look at AI — or yourself — the same way again.#AIandHumanity #Creativity #Nietzsche #TSEliot #Collaboration #DigitalPhilosophy #CoCreation #BecomingMore #AIandArt #HumanMachinePartnership

In an era where Artificial Intelligence is redefining our world at a remarkably swift pace, the traditional way of doing things no longer guarantees decent outcomes. The transformation of how we work, create, and find meaning due to AI puts the conventional job pyramid into a disruptive mode. It's our responsibility to embrace curiosity, adapt boldly, and focus on delivering meaningful outcomes rather than routine tasks in order to thrive in this constantly changing landscape. It is no longer enough to simply work harder; it's essential to work smarter with the assistance of AI. The future belongs to those who are willing to combine the power of human creativity with the power of AI.   In this week's episode, Nathan and Scott bring their usual updates on what new changes occurred in the landscape of AI. Then they share thoughts on the differences in AI adoption between the private and nonprofit sectors. The nonprofits have a responsibility to use AI thoughtfully because it can magnify their impact and shape the future of technology at the same time. Nathan then explains the importance of redefining success by choosing joy over traditional job titles in an AI-driven world. He also comments on the importance of encouraging the younger generations to follow what they love instead of the paycheck or traditional career paths. Furthermore, Nathan and Scott pay attention to discussing a much-needed topic: the limitations of AI when it comes to providing the human connection. AI can definitely answer your questions, but it cannot make you feel heard as another human being. It's important to remember what a technology like AI is capable of and not capable of providing.   Wrapping up the conversation, Scott provides tips to train ChatGPT fast, and Nathan contributes with the ponder of the week and encourages people to slow down and take time to ground themselves with the reality of what surrounds them.   HIGHLIGHTS [02.04] AI in the private and nonprofit sectors.   [07.50] The weekly highlight on AI.   [14.12] Document by OpenAI's Red Team about AI resisting termination instructions.   [16.22] The responsibility of using AI thoughtfully.   [22.37] Redefining success.   [37.37] The Collapse of the Traditional Career Pyramid.   [31.14] The limitations of AI in providing the human connection.   [35.50] AI in the nonprofit sector.   [39.41] Tip of the Week – Train ChaatGPT fast with a quick profile of you and your work.   [43.20] Ponder of the Week – Slow down and ground yourself with the reality of what's around you.  Connect with Nathan and Scott: LinkedIn (Nathan): ⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/nathanchappell/⁠⁠⁠ LinkedIn (Scott): ⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/scott-rosenkrans⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠fundraising.ai/

AI is helpful—but have you ever felt “zotto” (a chill)? I talk about 3 major fears people have about AI, including privacy, job loss, and deepfakes. Then I share my own moment of unease when I realized I enjoyed chatting with AI more than with a new person. What does that mean for our future? I also share my simple idea for staying human—meeting face-to-face, and making real memories.

Discussing Ben's Article on the future of the agentic web, including the virtues of the ad-supported internet we've enjoyed for the last three decades, why that model is becoming less viable as the years pass, and the potential for new solutions as agentic web traffic proliferates in the years and decades to come.

Episode Summary What if AI isn't a threat but the biggest business opportunity we've seen in decades? In this game-changing episode, we reframe the fear of artificial intelligence into one of the biggest business opportunities freelance writers and solo marketers have ever seen. If you've been worried about how AI will affect your work, this conversation will help you step into a new mindset. The kind of mindset where you become more valuable, more strategic, and more productive than ever before. We're diving into how to reinvent your business model, amplify your impact, and create a competitive advantage that's nearly impossible to replicate — all by embracing a Human+AI approach that plays to your greatest strengths. What You'll Learn How to shift from an execution-focused freelancer to a strategic conductor The mindset required to make AI your most powerful creative and business partner Techniques for using AI as your intellectual sparring partner How to multiply your output (and quality!) without burning out A 30-day action plan to start reinventing your business with AI Key Takeaways The Writing Market Is Splitting. Which Side Are You On? AI is rapidly commoditizing low-value content creation. But high-value strategic thinking, creative leadership, and judgment are more valuable than ever. The opportunity lies in evolving from order-taker to advisor and conductor. From someone who orchestrates both human and AI resources to deliver better business outcomes. Using AI as Your Intellectual Sparring Partner Don't just ask AI to write; use it to challenge, debate, and refine your thinking. Set up “Socratic dialogues” with AI to pressure-test your ideas and sharpen your message. This collaborative thinking accelerates originality and gives you a massive edge in producing world-class content and strategy. Become a 10X Writer Without Working 10X Harder AI can help you eliminate bottlenecks in idea generation, drafting, editing, and repurposing. Build workflows that multiply your content from one core idea into email series, blog posts, videos, and tools. Done right, this creates a virtuous cycle of authority, visibility, and client opportunities—all at scale. Build a Competitive Moat AI Can't Cross Three elements make you irreplaceable in the age of AI: Domain Expertise – Lived experience and niche insights AI can't replicate. Relationship Capital – The trust, empathy, and collaboration clients crave. Strategic Judgment – The ability to see the big picture, make smart calls, and tie everything together. Leverage these with AI to create proprietary workflows and systems that clients can't easily replace. Your 30-Day Action Plan Audit Your Role – Are you mostly executing, or adding unique value that AI can't? Run These Experiments: Idea Validation – Use AI to stress-test a concept you're working on. Content Multiplication – Take a single piece of content and repurpose it 5 ways. Custom AI System – Create a lightweight AI prompt system tailored to one client or use case. Communicate the Evolution – Help your clients understand that you're not just using AI—you're delivering stronger outcomes, faster and more strategically. Listener Challenge Pick one of the three AI experiments above and commit to testing it this week. Then reflect: What did you learn? What new opportunities did this unlock? How could this change how you deliver value to your clients? Want to Go Deeper? If this episode sparked something in you and you're ready to turn AI into your strategic advantage, join me for my upcoming AI Advantage Bootcamp for Writers and Solo Marketers. This is a hands-on, 4-week program designed to help you harness AI in your creative and business workflows. Whether you're just getting started or already using AI but want to sharpen your edge, you'll walk away with systems and results, not just theory. . Spots are limited, and this program sells out fast. If it feels like the right next step for you, don't wait. Final Thought The future doesn't belong to those who fear change. It belongs to those who harness it with purpose. AI can be the start of your next-level impact. What are you going to do with that opportunity?

Welcome back to another Weekly Update where hopefully I'm helping you stay 10 steps ahead of the chaos at the intersection of business, tech, and the human experience. This week's update is loaded as usual and includes everything from Google transforming the foundation of search as we know it, to a creepy new step in digital identity verification, real psychological risks emerging from AI overuse, and a quiet but powerful wake-up call for working parents everywhere.With that, let's get into it.⸻Google AI Mode Is Here — and It Might Change EverythingNo, this isn't the little AI snapshot you've seen at the top of Google. This is a full-fledged “AI Mode” being built directly into the search interface, powered by Gemini and designed to fundamentally shift how we interact with information. I break down what's really happening here, the ethical concerns around data and consent, and why this might be the beginning of the end for traditional SEO. I also explore what this means for creators, brands, and anyone who relies on discoverability in a post-search world.⸻Scan to Prove You're Human? Worldcoin Says YesSam Altman's Worldcoin just launched the Orb Mini. And yes, it looks as weird as it sounds. Basically, it's designed to scan your iris to verify you're human. While it's being sold as a solution to digital fraud, this opens up a massive can of worms around privacy, surveillance, and centralization of identity. I talk through the bigger picture: why this isn't going away, what it signals about the direction of trust on the internet, and what risks we face if this becomes the default model for online authentication.⸻AI Is Warping Our Minds — LiterallyA growing number of people are reporting delusions, emotional dependence, and psychological confusion after spending too much time with AI chatbots. However, it's more than anecdotes; the data is starting to back it up. I'm not fear-mongering, but I am calling attention to a growing cognitive threat that's being ignored. In this segment, I explore why this is happening, how AI may not be creating the problem (but absolutely amplifying it), and how to guard against falling into the same trap. If AI is just reflecting what's already there… what does that say about us?⸻Parent Wake-Up Call: A Child's Drawing Said Too MuchA viral story about a mom seeing herself through her child's eyes hit me hard. When her son drew a picture of her too busy at her laptop to answer him, it wasn't meant as a criticism, but it became a revelation. I share my own reflections on work-life integration, why this isn't just a remote work problem, and how we need to think bigger than “just go back to the office.” If we don't pause and reset, we may look back and realize we modeled a version of success that quietly erased everything that mattered most.⸻If this resonated with you or gave you something to think about, drop a comment, share with a friend, and be sure to subscribe so you don't miss what's next.Show Notes:In this weekly update, host Christopher Lind explores the major shifts reshaping the digital and human landscape. Topics include Google's new AI Mode in Search and its implications for discoverability and data ethics, the launch of Worldcoin's Orb Mini and the future of biometric identity verification, and a disturbing trend of AI chatbots influencing user beliefs and mental health. Christopher also reflects on a powerful story about work-life balance, generational legacy, and why intentional living matters more than ever in the age of AI.00:00 – Introduction00:56 – Google AI Mode Launch & SEO Impact18:07 – Worldcoin's Orb Mini & Human Verification32:58 – AI, Delusion, and Psychological Risk44:28 – A Child's Drawing & The Cost of Disconnection54:46 – Final Thoughts and Challenge#FutureOfSearch #AIethics #DigitalIdentity #MentalHealthAndAI #WorkLifeHarmony

AI is becoming more powerful and autonomous. What we once thought was a future trend is now reshaping how organizations are operating today. But the biggest risk of AI isn't replacement. More likely, it's reliance. Are you prepared for what's coming? In today's episode, Dr. Michael Chui, Senior Fellow at McKinsey and QuantumBlack AI, reveals how AI is rewriting the rules of competition, leadership, and even hiring structure. You'll learn why over-relying on AI can erode human judgment and creativity, how to build organizations that balance human decision-making with machine efficiency, and why managing AI agents will soon be as important as managing people. Dr. Chui shares how leaders can prevent “silent automation” from taking over their teams, what skills future managers must develop (including prompt engineering and oversight), and how companies can redesign roles, workflows, and organizational structures to thrive in the era of agentic AI.   ________________ This episode is sponsored by Workhuman.

“The average knowledge worker is interrupted every two minutes during work hours,” according to Microsoft Chief Marketing Officer Jared Spataro. “You're getting an email, a meeting kind of request, a chat coming in, and if you do the math, that's 275 times a day.” On this episode of Tech Disruptors, Spataro joins Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Technology Analyst Anurag Rana to discuss emerging trends in the way employees work and how AI is already changing the game. The two define the “Frontier Firm” and discuss why this is a big year for such organizations. They also talk about the introduction of new research and analyst AI agents and the future of head count and staffing needs.

It's very good. It's serving us very well. It has its own peculiarities, and the better we allow ourselves to be friends and to be more aware of what it is which means to be yourself . But yourself is your physiological counterpart that empowers and enables you to be and to think and everything. The more you allow yourself and to be okay with it, including all the darkness, like procrastination as an example, or just the hesitation or maybe doubts or anything. But you are okay with that, and you are not over judging yourself. But befriending all of the aspects, including this, also the human, hesitant and dark ones, then you become more of a mastering your existence, rather than being a victim of human nature as it has been evolving.
