Dans cette édition :François Bayrou présente un plan de redressement budgétaire marqué par la suppression de deux jours fériés, le 8 mai et le lundi de Pâques, ainsi qu'un gel des pensions de retraite et la remise en cause d'un abattement fiscal pour les retraités.Les Français sont très attachés à ces jours fériés et s'opposent fermement à leur suppression, qui rapporterait pourtant plus de 4 milliards d'euros à l'État.Les retraités, notamment ceux touchant de petites pensions, sont vent debout contre le gel de leurs pensions et la modification de l'abattement fiscal, qui les pénaliseraient financièrement.L'opposition politique, de gauche comme de droite, menace de censurer le gouvernement si ces mesures ne sont pas revues.Le gouvernement reste ferme sur son objectif de réduire le déficit budgétaire de 44 milliards d'euros et entame des consultations avec les partenaires sociaux pour définir les jours fériés à supprimer.Une application de vérification de l'identité en ligne est testée dans 5 pays européens, dont la France, pour empêcher les mineurs d'accéder aux contenus pornographiques.Dans le sud de la France, les pompiers sont en alerte maximale en raison du risque élevé d'incendies de forêt avec le retour du Mistral et de la Tramontane.Notre équipe a utilisé un outil d'Intelligence artificielle via les technologies d'Audiomeans© pour accompagner la création de ce contenu écrit.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Hey everyone, Alex hereDon't you just love "new top LLM" drop weeks? I sure do! This week, we had a watch party for Grok-4, with over 20K tuning in to watch together, as the folks at XAI unveiled their newest and best model around. Two models in fact, Grok-4 and Grok-4 Heavy. We also had a very big open source week, we had the pleasure to chat with the creators of 3 open source models on the show, first with Elie from HuggingFace who just released SmoLM3, then with our friend Maxime Labonne who together with Liquid released a beautiful series of tiny on device models. Finally we had a chat with folks from Reka AI, and as they were on stage, someone in their org published a new open source Reka Flash model
Apple voert gesprekken om de uitzendrechten van de Formule 1 in de Verenigde Staten te bemachtigen. Dat heeft de Britse zakenkrant Financial Times woensdag gemeld. Het bedrijf daagt daarmee ESPN van Disney uit, dat momenteel de F1-races uitzendt in de VS. Joe van Burik vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Volgens FT komt de interesse van Apple na het succes van de film 'F1 The Movie', met Brad Pitt in de hoofdrol. Apple produceert deze film, die sinds eind vorige maand ook in Nederlandse bioscopen draait. FT meldt verder dat de Formule 1 nog een beslissing moet nemen over de toekomstige uitzendrechten van de races. ESPN zou de rechten ook nog kunnen behouden, aldus een ingewijde tegen de krant. Verder in deze Tech Update: Apple's COO Jeff Williams stapt op, waarmee een potentiële opvolger van Tim Cook de techreus toch verlaten heeft Mistral, de Europese tegenhanger van ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, praat over een nieuwe investering van 1 miljard dollar met investeerder MGX uit Abu Dhabi See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Le jeudi 3 juillet, un vent de fronde a soufflé sur Bruxelles. Quarante-cinq poids lourds de l'industrie européenne – d'Airbus à Total, en passant par Axa, BNP Paribas, Mistral AI ou ASML – ont signé une lettre ouverte réclamant une pause de deux ans sur la mise en œuvre de l'AI Act, le règlement européen sur l'intelligence artificielle. En clair : un "clock-stop" pour gagner du temps face à ce que les signataires dénoncent comme des règles "floues et de plus en plus complexes".Leurs inquiétudes ? Deux échéances clés. D'abord, dès le 2 août 2025, les développeurs de modèles d'IA « à usage général » – comme ceux qui alimentent ChatGPT ou Le Chat de Mistral – devront fournir une documentation technique complète, un résumé des données d'entraînement et réaliser une évaluation des risques. Ensuite, à l'été 2026, ce seront les systèmes dits « à haut risque » qui passeront au crible : IA utilisées dans les domaines de l'éducation, de l'emploi, de la santé, des infrastructures critiques ou encore de la justice. Les entreprises redoutent un tsunami réglementaire et des coûts de conformité colossaux.Mais Bruxelles n'a pas tremblé. Dès le lendemain, le porte-parole de la Commission, Thomas Regnier, a été catégorique : « Il n'y a pas d'arrêt du temps. Il n'y a pas de pause. » Le calendrier est maintenu, les premières obligations tomberont comme prévu le 2 août 2025. Un signal de fermeté, alors que les pressions se multiplient. Outre les industriels européens, les géants américains comme OpenAI ou Meta poussent également pour assouplir le texte. Et dans les coulisses, l'administration Trump menace même l'Union de sanctions commerciales, accusant l'AI Act de discriminer les entreprises américaines. La situation reste tendue. Le guide de bonnes pratiques, attendu pour début mai, n'a toujours pas été publié. Et sur le front de la transparence des données d'entraînement, les discussions patinent face aux ayants droit culturels. La Commission promet des mesures de simplification d'ici la fin de l'année, notamment pour soulager les petites structures. Mais une chose est sûre : malgré la grogne des industriels et les pressions diplomatiques, l'Europe tient son cap. L'AI Act sera appliqué. Quoi qu'il en coûte. Hébergé par Acast.

Benjamin Rey est Head of AI au sein du Groupe Adeo, le leader européen du bricolage qui rassemble notamment Leroy Merlin, Bricoman, Saint-Maclou et Weldom dans 11 pays avec 115 000 collaborateurs. Ex-CDO de Leroy Merlin, il pilote désormais la stratégie IA du groupe.On aborde :
Le déracinement est l'un des phénomènes majeurs de la modernité occidentale. La majorité des Européens mènent des vies quotidiennes désincarnées, sans mémoire des anciens, ni tradition à laquelle se rattacher, sans repères identitaires ni vie spirituelle. Une existence aliénée, de zombie ou de robot, dans un monde qui tend à toujours plus d'uniformisation. Cette rupture avec toutes les attaches culturelles, symboliques et affectives est la cause d'une souffrance « identitaire » individuelle autant que collective. Que ce soit dans les familles, à l'école, ou au travail, l'homme moderne voit devenir de plus en plus incertains les repères auxquels s'adossait l'existence des générations qui l'ont précédé. Il doit désormais résoudre, jour après jour, la tension entre les attaches naturelles dont il ne peut se départir, et les injonctions contradictoires que lui assènent des institutions phagocytées par l'idéologie ou la publicité. Les grands penseurs du XXe siècle, de Martin Heidegger à Pierre Boutang, rappellent pourtant que l'enracinement est un besoin fondamental et même « le besoin le plus important et le plus méconnu de l'âme humaine », comme l'écrivait Simone Weil. L'ancrage dans une communauté organique et dans un héritage offre à la fois protection et autonomie, mais aussi l'accès à une vie spirituelle immanente grâce à l'esprit du lieu et du groupe. Une fois ce constat posé, il reste à comprendre les effets positifs ou négatifs de nos institutions culturelles et politiques sur ces liens qui libèrent. L'école qui "fabrique de l'oubli" arrache-t-elle les enfants à leurs racines ? L'État, perçu souvent comme une entité abstraite et potentiellement oppressante, joue-t-il un rôle actif dans le déracinement ? Le système de la marchandise, qui tend à tout quantifier et à transformer en fétiche le monde sensible, est-il le vrai responsable ? Face à cette fatigue générale, comment retrouver de la vitalité et mettre fin à la crise identitaire ? Comment redevenir des héritiers soucieux de reconnaitre la dette de leurs ancêtres plutôt que des individus égoïstement centrés sur leurs droits ? Comment faire face concrètement au déracinement ? Pour en discuter, nous recevons : • Rémi Soulié, écrivain et philosophe originaire du Rouergue, est docteur ès lettres et a été professeur à l'université de Toulouse jusqu'en 2001, avant de travailler à Paris comme secrétaire des débats à l'Assemblée nationale. Il a publié une dizaine de livres, parmi lesquels figurent Nietzsche ou la sagesse dionysiaque (2014), Pour saluer Pierre Boutang (2016), Racination (2018), Les Métamorphoses d'Hermès (2021) et Les âges d'Orphée (2022). et • Axelle Simpère est psychologue clinicienne et psychopraticienne, ancien professeur de lettres-anglais en collège et lycée professionnels. Enracinée en Gascogne, mère de deux grands enfants qu'elle a élevés et instruits à la maison, hors du cadre scolaire classique, elle est aussi chasseuse et arpenteuse de ses montagnes pyrénéennes en toutes saisons. Elle mène une réflexion de fond sur l'enracinement et l'identité, à un moment où la civilisation européenne vacille sur ses bases.

Charles Gorintin est le cofondateur d'Alan, le partenaire santé nouvelle génération.Après des études à l'École nationale des ponts et chaussées, à l'École normale supérieure et à l'université de Berkeley, il entame sa carrière dans la Silicon Valley, près de San Francisco.Data scientist chez Facebook, Instagram puis Twitter, il y a notamment dirigé la lutte contre les bots et les faux profils.En 2016, il revient en France pour cofonder Alan aux côtés de son ancien camarade Jean-Charles Samuelian-Werve, qui avait déjà créé puis revendu une entreprise dans l'aéronautique.À l'époque, aucune assurance n'avait été créée en France depuis 30 ans, et beaucoup leur prédisaient l'échec.Qu'à cela ne tienne, ils lèvent des fonds et recrutent une équipe de 8 personnes.Six mois plus tard, ils obtiennent l'agrément leur permettant de commercialiser des complémentaires santé.Charles et Jean-Charles s'appuient sur la réglementation comme un cadre pour innover, tout en remettant en question certaines règles qu'ils jugent dépassées ou incohérentes.Petit à petit, ils se font une place dans un secteur jusque-là figé.Pour y parvenir, ils internalisent tous les métiers de l'assurance, de la gestion du risque au traitement des sinistres en passant par la distribution, sans intermédiaires ni courtiers.Alan propose également des services de santé directs via une clinique virtuelle et un assistant médical augmenté par l'IA, tout en incitant ses membres à pratiquer du sport pour rester en bonne santé.Aujourd'hui, Alan compte 700 000 adhérents issus de 30 000 entreprises réparties en France, en Espagne, en Belgique et au Canada.Dès le début, Charles Gorintin fait le choix d'internaliser toute la technologie.En 2022, Alan opère un tournant stratégique et mise sur l'intelligence artificielle.Mais Charles réalise vite que toutes les briques utilisées viennent d'OpenAI.Pour créer une alternative européenne, Alan décide alors de développer son propre modèle d'IA générative.Charles mène une stratégie ambitieuse : lever des fonds et s'entourer des meilleurs talents, dont Arthur Mensch, Guillaume Lample et Timothée Lacroix.En 2023, ils fondent ensemble Mistral AI.En quelques mois, le succès est au rendez-vous.Bonne écoute !===========================

Dans ce Debrief Transat exceptionnel, enregistré à Vivatech, on vous livre notre analyse de l'édition 2025 du salon européen de la tech : le Canada à l'honneur, l'intelligence artificielle en vedette, la souveraineté numérique face à une certaine "schizophrénie" française. Avec Bruno Guglielminetti.------Canada à l'honneur : une présence inédite avec 600 représentants et plus de 200 entreprises, dans un pavillon d'envergure jamais vue. Le Canada en profite pour resserrer ses liens avec la France et l'Europe dans un contexte géopolitique tendu.Souveraineté numérique : entre discours politiques et réalité du marché, le paradoxe européen. Malgré la volonté de créer un cloud souverain, les partenariats (comme celui entre Mistral et NVIDIA) montrent à quel point l'Europe dépend encore des technologies américaines.Les ambitions du monde arabe : forte présence des Émirats, de l'Arabie Saoudite et du Maghreb, avec des stratégies offensives pour recruter des talents européens et devenir des puissances de l'IA.L'innovation robotique : arrivée prochaine en France des robots humanoïdes chinois Unitree, adaptés au marché local par une startup française.Présence politique forte : Macron omniprésent, symbole d'une tech française encore très politisée, tandis que le Canada introduit un ministre dédié à l'IA.Diversité internationale : de la startup libanaise à la délégation africaine, Vivatech affirme son ouverture au monde et son rôle de carrefour de l'innovation.-----------

Two-year old French startup Mistral wants to show that European AI can compete with American and Chinese companies that dominate the industry. WSJ tech reporter Sam Schechner reports from the Viva Technology conference in Paris. Plus, the United Nations estimates half of all people on Earth experience severe water scarcity at least one month of the year. WSJ tech columnist Christopher Mims tells us about a 1960s-era technology that might hold a key to easing that problem. Sign up for the WSJ's free Technology newsletter.

durée : 00:03:26 - Un monde connecté - par : François Saltiel - Chronique de la journée d'ouverture de VivaTech, le plus grand salon d'Europe consacré aux nouvelles technologies. Au programme, le Canada à l'honneur, l'ombre de Donald Trump et Emmanuel Macron qui a le Mistral en poupe.
AI coding is in full-blown gold-rush mode, and GitHub sits at the epicenter. In this episode, GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke tells Matt Turck how a $7.5 B acquisition in 2018 became a $2 B ARR rocket ship, and reveals how Copilot was born from a secret AI strategy years before anyone else saw the opportunity.We dig into the dizzying pace of AI innovation: why developer tools are suddenly the fastest-growing startups in history, how GitHub's multi-model approach (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude 4, Gemini 2.5, and even local LLMs) gives you more choice and speed, and why fine-tuning models might be overrated. Thomas explains how Copilot keeps you in the “magic flow state,” how even middle schoolers are using it to hack Minecraft. The conversation then zooms out to the competitive battlefield: Cursor's $10 B valuation, Mistral's new code model, and a wave of AI-native IDE forks vying for developer mind-share. We discuss why 2025's “coding agents” could soon handle 90 % of the world's code, the survival of SaaS and why the future of coding is about managing agents, not just writing code.GitHubWebsite - https://github.com/X/Twitter - https://x.com/githubThomas DohmkeLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtomX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/ashtomFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro (01:50) Why AI Coding Is Ground Zero for Generative AI (02:40) The $7.5B GitHub Acquisition: Microsoft's Strategic Play (06:21) GitHub's Role in the Azure Cloud Ecosystem (10:25) How GitHub Copilot Beat Everyone to Market (16:09) Copilot & VS Code Explained for Non-Developers (21:02) GitHub Models: Multi-Model Choice and What It Means (25:31) The Reality of Fine-Tuning AI Models for Enterprise (29:13) The Dizzying Pace and Political Economy of AI Coding Tools (36:58) Competing and Partnering: Microsoft's Unique AI Strategy (41:29) Does Microsoft Limit Copilot's AI-Native Potential?

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In-Ear Insights, a few people have asked us the question, should I hire an AI expert—a person, an AI expert on my team—or should I try to grow AI expertise, someone as an AI leader within my company? I can see there being pros and cons to both, but, Katie, you are the people expert. You are the organizational behavior expert. I know the answer is it depends. But at first blush, when someone comes to you and says, hey, should I be hiring an AI expert, somebody who can help shepherd my organization through the crazy mazes of AI, or should I grow my own experts? What is your take on that question? Katie Robbert – 00:47 Well, it definitely comes down to it depends. It depends on what you mean by an AI expert. So, what is it about AI that they are an expert in? Are you looking for someone who is staying up to date on all of the changes in AI? Are you looking for someone who can actually develop with AI tools? Or are you looking for someone to guide your team through the process of integrating AI tools? Or are you looking for all of the above? Which is a totally reasonable response, but that doesn’t mean you’ll get one person who can do all three. So, I think first and foremost, it comes down to what is your goal? And by that I mean, what is the AI expertise that your team is lacking? Katie Robbert – 01:41 Or what is the purpose of introducing AI into your organization? So, unsurprisingly, starting with the 5P framework, the 5Ps are purpose, people, process, platform, performance, because marketers like alliteration. So, purpose. You want to define clearly what AI means to the company, so not your ‘what I did over summer vacation’ essay, but what AI means to me. What do you want to do with AI? Why are you bringing AI in? Is it because I want to keep up with my competitors? Bad answer. Is it because you want to find efficiencies? Okay, that’s a little bit better. But if you’re finding efficiencies, first you need to know what’s not working. So before you jump into getting an AI expert, you probably need someone who’s a process expert or an expert in the technologies that you feel like are inefficient. Katie Robbert – 02:39 So my personal stance is that there’s a lot of foundational work to do before you figure out if you can have an AI expert. An AI expert is like bringing in an AI piece of software. It’s one more thing in your tech stack. This is one more person in your organization fighting to be heard. What are your thoughts, Chris? Christopher S. Penn – 03:02 AI expert is kind of like saying, I want to hire a business expert. It’s a very umbrella term. Okay, are your finances bad? Is your hiring bad? Is your sales process bad? To your point, being very specific about your purpose and the performance—which are the bookends of the 5Ps—is really important because otherwise AI is a big area. You have regression, you have classification, you have generative AI. Even within generative AI, you have coding, media generation. There’s so many things. We were having a discussion internally in our own organization this morning about some ideas about internationalization using AI. It’s a big planet. Katie Robbert – 03:46 Yeah, you’ve got to give me some direction. What does that mean? I think you and I, Chris, are aligned. If you’re saying, ‘I want to bring in an AI expert,’ you don’t actually know what you’re looking for because there are so many different facets of expertise within the AI umbrella that you want to be really specific about what that actually means and how you’re going to measure their performance. So if you’re looking for someone to help you make things more efficient, that’s not necessarily an AI expert. If you’re concerned that your team is not on board, that’s not an AI expert. If you are thinking that you’re not getting the most out of the platforms that you’re using, that’s not an AI expert. Those are very different skill sets. Katie Robbert – 04:38 An AI expert, if we’re talking—let’s just say we could come up with a definition of an AI expert—Chris, you are someone who I would consider an AI expert, and I would list those qualifications as: someone who stays up to date. Someone who knows enough that you can put pretty much any model in front of them and they know how to build a prompt, and someone who can speak to how these tools would integrate into your existing tech stack. My guess is that’s the kind of person that everybody’s looking for: someone to bring AI into my organization, do some light education, and give us a tool to play with. Christopher S. Penn – 05:20 We often talk about things like strategy, tactics, execution, and measurement. So, sort of four layers: why are you doing this thing? What are you going to do? How are you going to do it, and did it work? An actual AI expert has to be able to do all four of those things to say, here’s why we’re doing this thing—AI or not. But here’s why you’d use AI, here’s what AI tools and technologies you use, here’s how you do them, and here’s the proof that what you did worked. So when someone says, ‘I want an AI expert for my company,’ even then, they have to be clear: do we want someone who’s going to help us set our strategy or do we want someone who’s going to build stuff and make stuff for us? It’s very unclear. Christopher S. Penn – 06:03 I think that narrowing down the focus, even if you do narrow down the focus, you still have to restart the 5Ps. So let’s say we got this question from another colleague of ours: ‘I want to do AI lead generation.’ Was the remit to help me segment and use AI to do better lead generation? Well, that’s not an AI problem. As you always say, new technology does not solve all problems. This is not an AI problem; this is a lead generation problem. So the purpose is pretty clear. You want more leads, but it’s not a platform issue with AI. It is actually a people problem. How are people buying in the age of AI? And that’s what you need to solve. Christopher S. Penn – 06:45 And from there you can then go through the 5Ps and user stories and things to say, ‘yeah, this is not an AI expert problem. This is an attention problem.’ You are no longer getting awareness because AI has eaten it. How are you going to get attention to generate audience that becomes prospects that eventually becomes leads? Katie Robbert – 07:05 Yeah, that to me is an ideal customer profile, sales playbook, marketing planning and measurement problem. And sure, you can use AI tools to help with all of those things, but those are not the core problems you’re trying to solve. You don’t need AI to solve any of those problems. You can do it all without it. It might take a little longer or it might not. It really depends. I think that’s—So, Chris, I guess we’re not saying, ‘no, you can’t bring in an AI expert.’ We’re saying there’s a lot of different flavors of AI expertise. And especially now where AI is the topic, the thing—it was NFTs and it was crypto and it was Bitcoin and it was Web three, whatever the heck that was. And it was, pick a thing—Clubhouse. Katie Robbert – 07:57 All of a sudden, everybody was an expert. Right now everybody’s a freaking expert in AI. You can’t sneeze and not have someone be like, ‘I’m an AI expert. I can fix that problem for you.’ Cool. I’ve literally never seen you in the space, but congratulations, you’re an AI expert. The point I’m making here is that if you are not hyper specific about the kind of expertise you’re looking for, you are likely going to end up with a dud. You are likely going to end up with someone who is willing to come in at a lower price just to get their foot in the door. Christopher S. Penn – 08:40 Yep. Katie Robbert – 08:40 Or charge you a lot of money. You won’t know that it’s not working until it doesn’t work and they’ve already moved on. We talked about this on the livestream yesterday about people who come in as AI experts to fix your sales process or something like that. And you don’t know it’s not working until you’ve spent a lot of money on this expert, but you’re not bringing in any more revenue. But by then they’re gone. They’re already down the street selling their snake oil to the next guy. Christopher S. Penn – 09:07 Exactly. Now, to the question of should you grow your own? That’s a big question because again, what level of expertise are you looking for? Strategy, tactics, or execution? Do you want someone who can build? Do you want someone who can choose tools and tactics? Do you want someone who can set the strategy? And then within your organization, who are those people? And this is very much a people issue, which is: do they have the aptitudes to do that? I don’t mean AI aptitude; I mean, are they a curious person? Do they learn quickly? Do they learn well outside their domain? Because a lot of people can learn in their domain with what’s familiar to them. But a whole bunch of other people are really uncomfortable learning something outside their domain. Christopher S. Penn – 09:53 And for one reason or another, they may not be suited as humans to become that internal AI champion. Katie Robbert – 10:02 I would add to that not only the curiosity, but also the communication, because it’s one thing to be able to learn it, but then you have to, if you’re part of a larger team, explain what you learned, explain why you think this is a good idea. You don’t have to be a professional speaker, be able to give a TED talk, but you need to be able to say, ‘hey, Chris, I found this tool. Here’s what it does, here’s why I think we should use it,’ and be able to do that in a way that Chris is like, ‘oh, yeah! That is a really good idea. Let’s go ahead and explore it.’ But if you just say, ‘I found this thing,’ okay, and congratulations, here’s your sticker, that’s not helpful. Katie Robbert – 10:44 So communication, the people part of it, is essential. Right now, a lot of companies—we talked about this on last week’s podcast—a lot of leaders, a lot of CEOs, are disregarding the people in favor of ‘AI is going to do it,’ ‘technology is going to take it over,’ and that’s just not how that’s going to work. You can go ahead and alienate all of your people, but then you don’t have anyone to actually do the work. Because AI doesn’t just set itself up; it doesn’t just run itself without you telling it what it is you need it to do. And you need people to do that. Christopher S. Penn – 11:27 Yep. Really important AI models—we just had a raft of new announcements. So the new version of Gemini 2.5, the new version of OpenAI’s Codex, Claude 4 from Anthropic just came out. These models have gotten insanely smart, which, as Ethan Mollock from Wharton says, is a problem, because the smarter AI gets, the smarter its mistakes get and the harder it is for non-experts to pick up that expert AI is making expert-level mistakes that can still steer the ship in the wrong direction, but you no longer know if you’re not a domain expert in that area. So part of ‘do we grow an AI expert internally’ is: does this person that we’re thinking of have the ability to become an AI expert but also have domain expertise in our business to know when the AI is wrong? Katie Robbert – 12:26 At the end of the day, it’s software development. So if you understand the software development lifecycle, or even if you don’t, here’s a very basic example. Software engineers, developers, who don’t have a QA process, yes, they can get you from point A to point B, but it may be breaking things in the background. It might be, if their code is touching other things, something else that you rely on may have been broken. But listen, that thing you asked for—it’s right here. They did it. Or it may be using a lot of API tokens or server space or memory, whatever it is. Katie Robbert – 13:06 So if you don’t also have a QA process to find out if that software is working as expected, then yes, they got you from point A to point B, but there are all of these other things in the background that aren’t working. So, Chris, to your point about ‘as AI gets smarter, the mistakes get smarter’—unless you’re building people and process into these AI technologies, you’re not going to know until you get slapped with that thousand-dollar bill for all those tokens that you used. But hey, great! Three of your prospects now have really solid lead scores. Cool. Christopher S. Penn – 13:44 So I think we’re sort of triangulating on what the skills are that you should be looking for, which is someone who’s a good critical thinker, someone who’s an amazing communicator who can explain things, someone who is phenomenal at doing requirements gathering and being able to say, ‘this is what the thing is.’ Someone who is good at QA to be able to say the output of this thing—human or machine—is not good, and here’s why, and here’s what we should do to fix it. Someone who has domain expertise in your business and can explain, ‘okay, this is how AI does or does not fit into these things.’ And then someone who knows the technology—strategy, tactics, and execution. Why are we using this technology? What does the technology do? How do we deploy it? Christopher S. Penn – 14:30 For example, Mistral, the French company, just came up with a new model Dev Stroll, which is apparently doing very well on software benchmarks. Knowing that it exists is important. But then that AI expert who has to have all those other areas of expertise also has to know why you would use this, what you would use it for, and how you would use it. So I almost feel that’s a lot to cram into one human being. Katie Robbert – 14:56 It’s funny, I was just gonna say I feel that’s where—and obviously dating ourselves—that’s where things, the example of Voltron, where five mini-lion bots come together to make one giant lion bot, is an appropriate example because no one person—I don’t care who they are—no one person is going to be all of those things for you. But congratulations: together Chris and I are. That Voltron machine—just a quick plug. Because it’s funny, as you’re going through, I’m like, ‘you’re describing the things that we pride ourselves on, Chris,’ but neither of us alone make up that person. But together we do cover the majority. I would say 95% of those things that you just listed we can cover, we can tackle, but we have to do it together. Katie Robbert – 15:47 Because being an expert in the people side of things doesn’t always coincide with being an expert in the technology side of things. You tend to get one or the other. Christopher S. Penn – 15:59 Exactly. And in our case as an agency, the client provides the domain expertise to say, ‘hey, here’s what our business is.’ We can look at it and go, ‘okay, now I understand your business and I can apply AI technology and AI processes and things to it.’ But yeah, we were having that discussion not too long ago about, should we claim that AI expertise in healthcare technologies? Well, we know AI really well. Do we know healthcare—DSM codes—really well? Not really, no. So could we adapt and learn fast? Yes. But are we practitioners day to day working in an ER? No. Katie Robbert – 16:43 So in that case, our best bet is to bring on a healthcare domain expert to work alongside both of us, which adds another person to the conversation. But that’s what that starts to look like. If you say, ‘I want an AI expert in healthcare,’ you’re likely talking about a few different people. Someone who knows healthcare, someone who knows the organizational behavior side of things, and someone who knows the technology side of things. And together that gives your quote-unquote AI expert. Christopher S. Penn – 17:13 So one of the red flags for the AI expert side of things, if you’re looking to bring in someone externally, is someone who claims that with AI, they can know everything because the machines, even with great research tools, will still make mistakes. And just because someone’s an AI expert does not mean they have the sense to understand the subtle mistakes that were made. Not too long ago, we were using some of the deep research tools to pull together potential sponsors for our podcast, using it as a sales prospecting tool. And we were looking at it, looking at who we know to be in the market: ‘yeah, some of these are not good fits.’ Even though it’s plausible, it’s still not a good fit. Christopher S. Penn – 18:01 One of them was the Athletic Greens company, which, yes, for a podcast, they advertise on every podcast in the world. I know from listening to other shows and listening to actual experts that there’s some issues with that particular sponsorship. So it’s not a good fit. Even though the machine said, ‘yeah, this is because they advertise on every other podcast, they’re clearly just wanting to hand out money to podcasters.’ I have the domain expertise in our show to know, ‘yeah, that’s not a good fit.’ But as someone who is an AI expert who claimed that they understood everything because AI understands everything, doesn’t know that the machine’s wrong. So as you’re thinking about, should I bring an AI expert on externally, vet them on the level, vet them on how willing they are to say, ‘I don’t know.’ Katie Robbert – 18:58 But that’s true of really any job interview. Christopher S. Penn – 19:01 Yes. Katie Robbert – 19:02 Again, new tech doesn’t solve old problems, and AI is, at least from my perspective, exacerbating existing problems. So suddenly you’re an expert in everything. Suddenly it’s okay to be a bad manager because ‘AI is going to do it.’ Suddenly the machines are all. And that’s not an AI thing. Those are existing problems within your organization that AI is just going to magnify. So go ahead and hire that quote-unquote AI expert who on their LinkedIn profile says they have 20 years of generative AI expertise. Good luck with that person, because that’s actually not a thing now. Christopher S. Penn – 19:48 At most it would have to be 8 years and you would have to have credentials from Google DeepMind, because that’s where it was invented. You cannot say it’s anything older than that. Katie Robbert – 20:00 But I think that’s also a really good screening question is: do you know what Google DeepMind is? And do you know how long it’s been around? Christopher S. Penn – 20:09 Yep. If someone is an actual AI expert—not ‘AI and marketing,’ but an actual AI expert itself—can you explain the Transformers architecture? Can you explain the diffuser architecture? Can you explain how they’re different? Can you explain how one becomes the other? Because that was a big thing that was announced this week by Google DeepMind. No surprise about how they’re crossing over into each other, which is a topic for another time. But to your point, I feel AI is making Dunning-Kruger much worse. At the risk of being insensitive, it’s very much along gender lines. There are a bunch of dudes who are now making wild claims: ‘no, you really don’t know what you’re talking about.’ Katie Robbert – 21:18 I hadn’t planned on putting on my ranty pants today, but no, I feel that’s. Again, that’s a topic for another time. Okay. So here’s the thing: you’re not wrong. To keep this podcast and this topic productive, you just talked about a lot of things that people should be able to explain if they are an AI expert. The challenge on the other side of that table is people hiring that AI expert aren’t experts in AI. So, Chris, you could be explaining to me how Transformers turn into Voltron, bots turn into Decepticons, and I’m like, ‘yeah, that sounds good’ because you said all the right words. So therefore, you must be an expert. So I guess my question to you is, how can a non-AI expert vet and hire an AI expert without losing their mind? Is that possible? Christopher S. Penn – 22:15 Change the words. How would you hire a medical doctor when you’re not a doctor? How would you hire a plumber when you’re not a plumber? What are the things that you care about? And that goes back to the 5Ps, which is: and we say this with job interviews all the time. Walk me through, step by step, how you would solve this specific problem. Katie, I have a lead generation problem. My leads are—I’m not getting enough leads. The ones I get are not qualified. Tell me as an AI expert exactly what you would do to solve this specific problem. Because if I know my business, I should be able to listen to you go, ‘yeah, but you’re not understanding the problem, which is, I don’t get enough qualified leads. I get plenty of leads, but they’re crap.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:02 It’s the old Glengarry Glen Ross: ‘The leads are weak.’ Whereas if the person is an actual AI expert, they can say, ‘okay, let me ask you a bunch of questions. Tell me about your marketing automation software. Tell me about your CRM. Tell me how you have set up the flow to go from your website to your marketing automation to your sales CRM. Tell me about your lead scoring. How do you do your lead scoring? Because your leads are weak, but you’re still collecting tons of them. That means you’re not using your lead scoring properly. Oh, there’s an opportunity where I can show AI’s benefit to improve your lead scoring using generative AI.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:40 So even in that, we haven’t talked about a single model or a single ‘this’ or ‘that,’ but we have said, ‘let me understand your process and what’s going on.’ That’s what I would listen for. If I was hiring an AI expert to diagnose anything and say, I want to hear, and where we started: this person’s a great communicator. They’re a critical thinker. They can explain things. They understand the why, the what, and the how. They can ask good questions. Katie Robbert – 24:12 If I was the one being interviewed and you said, ‘how can I use AI to improve my lead score? I’m getting terrible leads.’ My first statement would be, ‘let’s put AI aside for a minute because that’s not a problem AI is going to solve immediately without having a lot of background information.’ So, where does your marketing team fit into your sales funnel? Are they driving awareness or are you doing all pure cold calling or outbound marketing—whatever it is you’re doing? How clear is your ideal customer profile? Is it segmented? Are you creating different marketing materials for those different segments? Or are you just saying, ‘hi, we’re Trust Insights, we’re here, please hire us,’ which is way too generic. Katie Robbert – 24:54 So there’s a lot of things that you would want to know before even getting into the technology. I think that, Chris, to your point, an AI expert, before they say, ‘I’m the expert, here’s what AI is going to fix,’ they’re going to know that there are a lot of things you probably need to do before you even get to AI. Anyone who jumps immediately to AI is going to solve this problem is likely not a true expert. They are probably just jumping on the bandwagon looking for a dollar. Christopher S. Penn – 25:21 Our friend Andy Crestedine has a phenomenal phrase that I love so much, which is ‘prescription before diagnosis is malpractice.’ That completely applies here. If you’re saying ‘AI is the thing, here’s the AI solution,’ yeah, but we haven’t talked about what the problem is. So to your point about if you’re doing these interviews, the person’s ‘oh yeah, all things AI. Let’s go.’ I get that as a technologist at heart, I’m like, ‘yeah, look at all the cool things we can do.’ But it doesn’t solve. Probably on the 5Ps here—down to performance—it doesn’t solve: ‘Here’s how we’re going to improve that performance.’ Katie Robbert – 26:00 To your point about how do you hire a doctor? How do you hire a plumber? We’ve all had that experience where we go to a doctor and they’re like, ‘here’s a list of medications you can take.’ And you’re like, ‘but you haven’t even heard me. You’re not listening to what I’m telling you is the problem.’ The doctor’s saying, ‘no, you’re totally normal, everything’s fine, you don’t need treatment. Maybe just move more and eat less.’ Think about it in those terms. Are you being listened to? Are they really understanding your problem? If a plumber comes into your house and you’re like, ‘I really think there’s a leak somewhere. But we hear this over here,’ and they’re like, ‘okay, here’s a cost estimate for all brand new copper piping.’ You’re like, ‘no, that’s not what I’m asking you for.’ Katie Robbert – 26:42 The key in these interviews, if you’re looking to bring on an AI expert, is: are they really listening to you and are they really understanding the problem that’s going to demonstrate their level of expertise? Christopher S. Penn – 26:54 Yep. And if you’re growing your own experts, sit down with the people that you want to become experts and A) ask them if they want to do it—that part does matter. And then B) ask them. You can use AI for this. It’s a phenomenal use case for it, of course. What is your learning journey going to be? How are you going to focus your learning so that you solve the problems? The purpose that we’ve outlined: ‘yeah, our organization, we know that our sales is our biggest blockage or finance is our biggest blockage or whatever.’ Start there and say, ‘okay, now your learning journey is going to be focused on how is AI being used to solve these kinds of problems. Dig into the technologies, dig into best practices and things.’ Christopher S. Penn – 27:42 But just saying, ‘go learn AI’ is also a recipe for disaster. Katie Robbert – 27:47 Yeah. Because, what about AI? Do you need to learn prompt engineering? Do you need to learn the different use cases? Do you need to learn the actual how the models work, any algorithms? Or, pick a thing—pick a Decepticon and go learn it. But you need to be specific. Are you a Transformer or are you a Decepticon? And which one do you need to learn? That’s going to be my example from now on, Chris, to try to explain AI because they sound like technical terms, and in the wrong audience, someone’s going to think I’m an AI expert. So I think that’s going to be my test. Christopher S. Penn – 28:23 Yes. Comment guide on our LinkedIn. Katie Robbert – 28:27 That’s a whole. Christopher S. Penn – 28:29 All right, so, wrapping up whether you buy or build—which is effectively what we’re discussing here—for AI expertise, you’ve got to go through the 5Ps first. You’ve got to build some user stories. You’ve got to think about the skills that are not AI, that the person needs to have: critical thinking, good communication, the ability to ask great questions, the ability to learn quickly inside and outside of their domain, the ability to be essentially great employees or contractors, no matter what—whether it’s a plumber, whether it’s a doctor, whether it’s an AI expert. None of that changes. Any final parting thoughts, Katie? Katie Robbert – 29:15 Take your time. Which sounds counterintuitive because we all feel that AI is changing so rapidly that we’re falling behind. Now is the time to take your time and really think about what it is you’re trying to do with AI. Because if you rush into something, if you hire the wrong people, it’s a lot of money, it’s a lot of headache, and then you end up having to start over. We’ve had talks with prospects and clients who did just that, and it comes from ‘we’re just trying to keep up,’ ‘we’re trying to do it quickly,’ ‘we’re trying to do it faster,’ and that’s when mistakes are made. Christopher S. Penn – 29:50 What’s the expression? ‘Hire slow, fire fast.’ Something along those lines. Take your time to really make good choices with the people. Because your AI strategy—at some point you’re gonna start making investments—and then you get stuck with those investments for potentially quite some time.

One of the biggest downsides of consumer AI?It doesn't have up-to-date access to your enterprise data. Even as frontier labs work tirelessly to connect and integrate AI chatbots with your data, we're a far way off from that happening. Unless you're using a platform like IBM's watsonx. And if you are using watsonx, your go-to enterprise AI platform just got a TON more powerful. IBM just unveiled updates across its watson ecosystem at its Think 2025 conference. We've been here covering every step of it, so we're jumping into what you need to know.Newsletter: Sign up for our free daily newsletterMore on this Episode: Episode PageJoin the discussion: Thoughts on this?

Varun Mohan is the co-founder and CEO of Windsurf (formerly Codeium), an AI-powered development environment (IDE) that has been used by over 1 million developers in just four months and has quickly emerged as a leader in transforming how developers build software. Prior to finding success with Windsurf, the company pivoted twice—first from GPU virtualization infrastructure to an IDE plugin, and then to their own standalone IDE.In this conversation, you'll learn:1. Why Windsurf walked away from a profitable GPU infrastructure business and bet the company on helping engineers code2. The surprising UI discovery that tripled adoption rates overnight.3. The secret behind Windsurf's B2B enterprise plan, and why they invested early in an 80-person sales team despite conventional startup wisdom.4. How non-technical staff at Windsurf built their own custom tools instead of purchasing SaaS products, saving them over $500k in software costs5. Why Varun believes 90% of code will be AI-generated, but engineering jobs will actually increase6. How training on millions of incomplete code samples gives Windsurf an edge, and creates a moat long-term7.
