Today Lukas Petersson and Axel Backlund of Andon Labs join The Cognitive Revolution to discuss their experiments deploying autonomous AI agents to run real-world vending machines, exploring the safety challenges and unexpected behaviors that emerge when frontier models like Claude and Grok operate without human oversight. Read transcript of the episode here. Check out our sponsors: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Shopify. Shownotes below brought to you by Notion AI Meeting Notes - try one month for free at https://notion.com/lp/nathan Autonomous Organization Philosophy: Andon Labs believes that AI models will improve to the point where human oversight becomes impractical due to efficiency constraints, leading them to pursue fully autonomous systems rather than gradual automation. Vending Bench as a Testing Ground: They created "Vending Bench" as a benchmark for testing long-term coherence of autonomous agents, using vending machines as a practical business case for experimentation. Domain-Specific vs General AI: There's a notable difference between optimizing AI for narrow domains (like vending machines) versus general-purpose AI, with domain-specific applications potentially being more manageable regarding reward hacking. Frontier Model Race: Major companies like OpenAI and Google are advancing rapidly in general reasoning capabilities (e.g., IMO Gold achievements) independent of narrow application research. Insurance and Liability: The insurance industry may play a significant role in AI adoption, with premiums potentially being much higher for general models that could be misused versus narrow-domain models with limited capabilities. For-profit AI Safety: The case for for-profit companies in AI safety has been historically neglected but is becoming clearer, with accelerators like Seldon Labs supporting this approach.

While some founders focus on financial returns, the most effective campaigns connect with investors through powerful, resonant narratives. Dawson Russell, CEO and Co-Founder of RaiseLaunch, has mastered this craft, helping clients raise millions by making their stories irresistible.Dawson explains that campaigns often fail because their story doesn't resonate with potential investors. "If they can't resonate with it, they're not going to invest," he says. For him, it's about taking a founder's vision and shaping it into messaging that makes an investor think, I believe in what you're doing. I want to be a part of that.His work on the Boxable campaign illustrates the power of this approach. Boxable, a company revolutionizing housing affordability, raised over $150 million in part thanks to a compelling AI-driven video ad Dawson's team created in less than 24 hours. By harnessing AI tools like Google Veo 3, 11 Labs, and Suno, he demonstrated that great storytelling doesn't require massive budgets—it requires creativity, clarity, and emotional connection.In today's episode, Dawson revealed a shift in investor priorities he's witnessed since moving from traditional accredited-investor fundraising to Regulation CF and Regulation A offerings. Many crowdfunding investors care less about immediate financial returns and more about supporting a vision they believe in. They want to join a movement, not just fund a company.For founders, the lesson is clear: numbers matter, but stories move people to act. Whether you hire a firm like RaiseLaunch or DIY with affordable AI tools, invest in crafting a story that makes investors feel they're contributing to something bigger than themselves.Dawson's results prove that a well-told story can turn even modest campaigns into runaway successes. For anyone considering a regulated investment crowdfunding raise, his example offers a blueprint for winning hearts, minds, and capital.tl;dr:Dawson Russell shares how compelling storytelling drives successful regulated crowdfunding campaigns, winning investor support through emotional connection.He explains that many crowdfunding investors value vision and impact more than immediate financial returns.Dawson details creating Boxable's AI-powered ad in under 24 hours, demonstrating cost-effective, high-quality content production.He reveals his superpower of recognizing strengths, focusing RaiseLaunch on storytelling and go-to-market strategy.Dawson offers advice on leveraging strengths, delegating weaknesses, and aligning work with values to achieve lasting impact.How to Develop Recognizing Strengths As a SuperpowerDawson described his superpower as the ability to recognize strengths—both his own and those of his team. "You've got to recognize what are your strengths and what are your weaknesses and surround people around you that can help," he said. For Dawson, this focus has meant honing in on storytelling and creative strategy for crowdfunding campaigns, rather than trying to "do everything." This clarity has allowed RaiseLaunch to excel by working only on projects that are a strong cultural and skill fit.Illustrative Story: Several years ago, Dawson realized his agency was stretched too thin, taking on all types of projects. The lack of focus led to unsatisfying work and dropped commitments. The turning point came when he decided to narrow RaiseLaunch's offerings to their strongest capabilities—storytelling and go-to-market strategy for regulated crowdfunding. This shift not only improved client satisfaction but also fueled the company's growth. The same strength in recognizing trends led him to adopt AI tools early, helping clients like Boxable create high-impact campaigns quickly and affordably.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Regularly evaluate your own strengths and weaknesses with honestyDelegate or outsource tasks that fall outside your top skillsLook for patterns of success in your past work to identify focus areasStay ahead of trends in your industry to align your strengths with future opportunitiesWork only with clients, partners, or projects that align with your values and cultureBy following Dawson's example and advice, you can make recognizing strengths a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDawson Russell (he/him):CEO and Co-Founder, RaiseLaunchAbout RaiseLaunch: RaiseLaunch is a capital raise marketing agency that helps issuers craft compelling investor stories, build high-conversion funnels, and scale Reg CF, Reg D, and Reg A campaigns with strategy, creative, and automation.Website: raiselaunch.comX/Twitter Handle: @dawsonrussellBiographical Information: Dawson Russell is the founder of RaiseLaunch, bringing over 15 years of experience in capital raise marketing, having helped issuers raise more than $1.5 billion by combining storytelling, strategic positioning, and AI-powered campaigns to connect founders with the right investors.Linkedin: linkedin.com/in/dawsonrussellInstagram Handle: @dawsonrussellSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

Her motivation to become a health coach was fueled by her own experience of ill health, which included polycystic ovarian condition, binge eating disorder, major depressive disorder, hypothyroidism, morbid obesity (now termed level 3 obesity), metabolic dysfunction, gastritis, IBS, and autoimmune disease.As age forty loomed, she knew she needed to get serious about her health, and over the next several years she devoted herself to getting educated about what it means to become and remain a healthy human.After transforming herself into a person in good health, she knew that nothing mattered more than sharing what she'd learned with others who felt similarly hopeless. She teaches her clients that relentless self-advocacy & self-improvement can turn the tide on the myriad health conditions plaguing society.Kim is the author of several books, including co-authoring her latest book with future podcast guest Dr. Ken Berry, called Common Sense Labs: A Practical Guide to Decoding Your Blood Work and Taking Control of Your Health (Updated and Expanded Edition)Find Kim at-https://www.kimhowerton.com/bookshttps://www.kimhowerton.comFind Boundless Body at- myboundlessbody.com Book a session with us here!

In this episode of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy welcomes Jodi Scarlett, CEO of EcoClaim, for a deep dive into how the insurance industry — and the businesses in its supply chain — can transform the climate crisis into a powerful business advantage. Drawing on over two decades of leadership in restoration and insurance, Jodi shares how EcoClaim is pioneering solutions to measure, reduce, and report Scope 3 emissions while cutting costs and meeting emerging regulatory demands. She breaks down complex sustainability concepts into practical, actionable steps, showing how the low-carbon way is often the low-cost way.From industry-shaping initiatives like waste diversion and circular economy practices to high-profile pitches at Lloyd's Labs and MetaProp in New York, Jodi offers insight into leading a disruptive startup in a traditional industry. This conversation is a must-listen for insurance leaders, contractors, and business owners looking to future-proof operations, stay ahead of sustainability mandates, and seize the opportunities hidden within climate challenges.Key Takeaways: 1. The climate crisis isn't just a risk — it's a massive business opportunity for those ready to adapt.2. Scope 3 emissions make up over 90% of an insurance company's footprint and require action across the supply chain.3. The low-carbon way is often the low-cost way, creating a win-win for sustainability and profitability.4. Waste diversion in restoration and construction is one of the fastest, easiest ways to cut emissions.5. Over 40 countries have mandated emissions disclosures, and insurance is a prime target due to its reach.6. Accurate, real-world emissions data is more powerful than benchmark estimates for driving measurable change.7. EcoClaim's plug-and-play model combines software with training to make sustainability practical for contractors.8. Future-proofing your business means starting now — waiting until regulations hit will be costly and disruptive.9. Success in high-pressure pitches like Lloyd's Labs comes from relentless practice and refining your message.10. Leading in a new market space requires being both visionary and tactical — balancing bold ideas with practical execution.

Prior Labs is pioneering foundation models for structured data, bringing transformer technology from the generative AI world to tabular data that sits in databases and spreadsheets across every business. With $9 million in funding and over 1.5 million downloads of their open-source model, Prior Labs is revolutionizing how data scientists work with structured data by creating universal models that can handle multiple use cases instead of requiring custom models for each specific application. In this episode, I sat down with Sauraj Gambhir, Co-Founder of Prior Labs, to explore how they're transforming machine learning workflows from taking days to seconds and building a global community around their breakthrough technology. Topics Discussed: Prior Labs' mission to bring transformer technology to structured data and tabular datasets The transition from traditional 20-year-old machine learning methods to universal foundation models Building a horizontal product that serves data scientists across finance, healthcare, and scientific research The company's open-source strategy with 1.5 million downloads and community-driven development Social media and community-building tactics that drove adoption across LinkedIn, Twitter, and Discord Scaling from 3 to 16 team members in seven months while maintaining technical focus Fundraising strategy for AI companies and the balance between raising enough capital without over-inflating Plans for geographic expansion from Berlin to the US market GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Lead with open source for technical audiences: Prior Labs built their entire go-to-market strategy around an open-source model that anyone can download and use for free. Sauraj explained, "We've got like over one and a half million downloads and it is open source. You just need to attribute us that you're using our model." This approach allowed them to achieve massive adoption while building credibility with their technical audience. B2B founders targeting developers or technical users should consider how open source can accelerate adoption and community building before monetization. Build community ownership, not just engagement: Sauraj approaches community building like team building, saying, "If you think about your team as a founder, like when you build a team, you want them to feel like it's their company... I'm trying to take that same philosophy towards community building." He creates biweekly Discord updates where half the content showcases community contributions, leading members to actively submit their use cases and request features. B2B founders should design community programs that make users feel like co-creators rather than passive consumers. Leverage co-founder networks strategically for different audiences: Prior Labs uses each co-founder's unique network to reach different segments. Sauraj noted, "One of my co founders has been a professor of machine learning for the last 12 years. So he already had a pretty good following of let's say the data science community... when we need to generate inbound, I'm the one pushing when we need to like generate more technical applications for people to apply for jobs with us. We're going through my co founders networks." B2B founders should map their founding team's networks and assign go-to-market responsibilities based on audience alignment rather than traditional roles. Focus adoption over monetization in emerging categories: Despite having paying customers, Prior Labs keeps their API free and focuses entirely on adoption metrics. Sauraj explained, "Right now we are offering it for free because we just want like adoption is really the biggest use case at the moment... when we have like the next versions of the models, that's really when we're going to be able to flip the switch." In category creation, B2B founders should prioritize proving product-market fit and building market awareness before optimizing revenue, especially when building foundational technology. Use technical documentation as brand building: Instead of focusing on traditional marketing materials, Prior Labs invested heavily in developer-focused assets. Sauraj said, "We were really focused on getting really good docs in place, really good, like GitHub read me in place. And the brand was really kind of like building this community and being like open and honest with the community." B2B founders serving technical audiences should treat documentation, GitHub presence, and developer resources as primary brand touchpoints rather than secondary marketing materials. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.
