Orchestrate all the Things podcast: Connecting the Dots with George Anadiotis
How a rocket scientist turned entrepreneur created the "ChatGPT for Earth data" using transformers and satellite imagery. Bruno Sánchez is a rocket scientist with a somewhat deviant trajectory. An astrophysicist by training, he used the tools of his trade - mathematics and science - at the broadest possible scale: the universe. At some point, however, his focus switched to using those same tools for more down to earth goals. Sánchez had a stint at the World Bank, where as a member of interdisciplinary teams he helped make sense of geospatial data. Then he realized the core of what he was doing was mapping, which prompted him to launch a company called Mapbox, providing online maps on the web. This experience brought another realization for Sánchez - that we have so much data about Earth that we don't really know how to use it: "We know what are the trees in the world. We know what are the forests in the world. It's just a matter of processing [data] properly", as he put it. So when he got the opportunity to attempt to put all of that together in the same data center and in one workbench, he went for it. That was the Planetary Computer project at Microsoft, and Sánchez loved it. Then, ChatGPT happened. Sánchez noted that the T in ChatGPT - the transformer - was an architecture that seemed to work great for modalities such as text, images, and audio, but no one seemed to be using it for earth data. So he decided to give it a try. He built a team, raised funds, created a non-profit, and built an open source model using open data. And this is how Clay was born.

Orchestrate all the Things podcast: Connecting the Dots with George Anadiotis
Organizations are facing a critical challenge to AI adoption: how to leverage their domain-specific knowledge to use AI in a way that delivers trustworthy results. Knowledge graphs provide the missing "truth layer" that transforms probabilistic AI outputs into real world business acceleration. Knowledge graphs are powering products for the likes of Amazon and Samsung. The Knowledge graph market is expected to grow to $6.93 Billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 36.6%. Gartner has been advocating for the role of knowledge graphs in AI and the downstream effects in organizations going forward for the last few years. Neither the technology nor the vision are new. Knowledge graph technology has been around for decades, and people like Tony Seale were early to identify its potential for AI. Seale, also known as "The Knowledge Graph Guy", is the founder of the eponymous consulting firm. In this extensive conversation, we covered everything from knowledge graph first principles to application patterns for safe, verifiable AI, real-world experience, trends, predictions, and the way forward.

In this episode of 'Tame the Mobile Beast,' Tom Butta hosts Chris Koehler, Chief Marketing Officer of Twilio, in a discussion about the intricacies of orchestrating seamless customer experiences across multiple channels. Chris highlights the complex challenge brands face in integrating new technologies, evolving user needs, and vast data streams, emphasizing that creating cohesive and delightful customer journeys requires more than just advanced technology—it calls for strong internal alignment and a well-thought-out strategy. The conversation underscores the importance of viewing customer experience as a holistic journey rather than a series of isolated interactions, warning that disjointed experiences across touchpoints can undermine customer satisfaction and brand loyalty.Additionally, the conversation would not be complete without touching on the potential of AI, specifically how it can be leveraged to enable personalization at scale. By leveraging a unified data profile and activating it across communication channels, AI can generate more relevant content, offers, and experiences. However, he cautions that success hinges on a deliberate strategy to avoid pitfalls like poor AI management, which could lead to negative customer experiences and increased skepticism. Finally, Chris shares his insights on balancing the digital and human elements in customer interactions and the future impact of AI on marketing and customer experience strategies. His advice underscores the importance of creating value-driven and efficient customer journeys that are deeply rooted in rich, contextual data.—Guest Quote"There's so many different ways to interact with your customers across your brand. Keeping that consistent, contextual experience - it's just really, really hard. And there's very few brands that are doing this.” – Chris Koehler—Time Stamps 01:01 Meet Chris Koehler, CMO of Twilio01:35 Beast of the Week: Customer Journey Irchestration02:45 The challenge of consistent customer experience03:49 The role of technology and organizational challenges09:53 The importance of data in customer experience12:04 AI: The future of personalization at scale20:16 Rapid Fire Questions—LinksConnect with Chris Koehler on LinkedInCheck out TwilioConnect with Tom Butta on LinkedInCheck out the Airship Website
New Charter Technologies has made a significant move by acquiring Orchestrate AI Labs, a company focused on integrating artificial intelligence into managed service provider (MSP) operations. This strategic acquisition aims to enhance New Charter's capabilities by combining human expertise with AI automation, positioning the company as a leader in the evolving IT landscape. Peter Melby, CEO of New Charter, expressed enthusiasm about leveraging Orchestrate's AI technology, while Ryan Barton, the CEO of Orchestrate AI, has joined New Charter as Chief Innovation Officer, emphasizing the transformative potential of AI in the MSP industry.The podcast also discusses the notable decline in ransomware payments, which dropped by 35% to approximately $814 million in 2024, following law enforcement's disruption of several major ransomware gangs. Despite this decrease in payments, the number of reported ransomware incidents on dark web leak sites has reached an all-time high, indicating that while attackers are targeting more victims, fewer are complying with ransom demands. The report highlights that automated tools played a role in 87% of attacks, and sectors such as education, healthcare, and technology were the primary targets.Additionally, the episode addresses the growing concerns surrounding the use of generative AI tools in organizations. A report revealed that companies typically have 67 generative AI tools operating without proper licensing, with 90% lacking approval. The podcast emphasizes the need for businesses to manage AI tool usage rather than impose outright bans, as many organizations are investing in strategies to prevent data leaks and control inputs. The average organization's lack of visibility into how sensitive data is processed poses significant security and compliance risks.Finally, the podcast highlights research indicating that AI is primarily viewed as a collaborator rather than an independent assistant, with 57% of AI use focused on augmenting human capabilities. However, there are concerns that over-reliance on AI could lead to a decline in critical thinking skills among users. The findings suggest that organizations should prioritize enhancing human expertise while actively managing the risks associated with cognitive complacency, particularly in high-stakes industries where precision and accountability are essential. Four things to know today 00:00 Good News: Ransomware Payments Are Down. Bad News? Attacks Are Up.04:53 Banning AI Isn't the Answer—Managing AI Usage Is.

Greg Dunnell of Buckeye Mountain talks about his founder journey; how big challenges impact workers; & why Buckeye are stewards of technology for customers. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [05.17] An overview of Greg's journey – how he found supply chain, innovated in technology whilst working for some of the industry's biggest names, and ultimately co-founded Buckeye Mountain. “I grew up working on a farm, so transportation came naturally to me. And, when I graduated from college, I wasn't what you'd call an honors student…! I went back to what I knew, and ended up driving a truck.” [12.43] An overview of Buckeye Mountain – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. [15.47] The ideal client for Buckeye Mountain. “It's really about our history and experience because we feel our role – our obligation – is to share those lessons learned. We've been down the pothole of technology for many years… And the secret to success is failure. We've been on that journey.” [18.25] From visibility to productivity, the biggest challenges currently faced by landside logistics facilities, and how they impact frontline workers. “Those people, when the tech goes down – imagine the frustration. ‘I'm not paid to be a technology troubleshooter, I'm paid to operate.' That's the big migration.” [23.45] How Buckeye are helping customers solve their toughest problems remotely and out in the field with their TechOps teams, who ‘think like operators, but act like tech experts.' “It is about the technology, but it's more about: ‘What is the giant problem you're trying to solve?'” [27.28] Why Buckeye act as a steward of technology for their customers, and how TechOps are changing the game. [31.11] How and why Buckeye developed Rapid Deploy technology, and the importance of guaranteed connectivity. [34.28] A case study showing how Buckeye helped an isolated intermodal facility, with no power or network, to be operated as a modern facility with Rapid Deploy and solar technology. [37.30] What we can expect from the landside logistics facilities of tomorrow, and the future for Buckeye. “If we can pull things into an easy workplace environment, and still provide the benefits operationally, that's a no brainer – but you need the infrastructure to do it.” RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: Head over to Buckeye Mountain's website to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Orchestrate all the Things podcast: Connecting the Dots with George Anadiotis
You.com showcases the state of AI today The story of you.com is multi-faceted and telling in many ways. You.com was founded in 2020 by Richard Socher, one of the leading NLP (Natural Language Processing) researchers in the world, to offer a better search experience to users and compete with Google. With a startup exit and a Chief Data Scientist stint at Salesforce, Socher got the experience, network and backing he needed to pursue his long-time ambition of taking on Google. That's something few people have tried, with moderate success. Socher diagnosed early enough that the way to success is by carving a niche for you.com. You.com focuses on serving knowledge workers in "complex informational / action searches": elaborate queries, and queries that are really about accomplishing a task, respectively. In 2022, in the pre-ChatGPT era, Socher set out a course for you.com based on AI, apps, privacy, and personalization. In 2024, you.com is staying the course, but a few things have changed. In the GenAI era the competition is growing, and borrowing pages from you.com's book. Language model providers such as OpenAI and Anthropic now offer services similar to you.com. Upstarts such as perplexity.ai have sprung up, and Google itself is embracing the AI approach to search. You.com is making progress too. Since launching in November 2021, you.com has served 1 billion queries and has millions of active users, including from Fortune 500. The company's ARR has grown by 500% since January 2024. Today, you.com announced a $50 million Series B funding round, as well as a new team plan called Multiplayer AI. We caught up with Socher, talked about the news, and took you.com for a spin.

Larry Cuddy of Lynxis talks about transforming terminal operations; consolidating solutions; & his vision for the landside logistics facilities of tomorrow. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [05.39] Larry's career journey and unrivalled passion for supply chain. “My journey is so special because I love what I do. I have to pinch myself, because it's really not a job for me… This journey started at five or six years old in a truck with my grandfather.” [08.53] An overview of Lynxis – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. “We're designing a platform for the asset owner and the operator, and there are three things that are core to that: how do you move cargo; how do you do it in less space; and how do you reduce your operating costs? And the common denominator is optimizing terminals.” [12.35] The ideal client for Lynxis. [14.24] The biggest challenges currently faced by cargo terminals and landside logistics facilities, and Lynxis' approach to tackling them. “Yes: tech is important, automation is important. But we've got to look at the infrastructure and workforce side as well.” [18.22] Lynxis' aim to transform terminal operations from the ground up, and drive rapid transformation in the industry, by building teams that ‘think like operators, but act like tech experts.' [21.14] The importance of consolidation in an inter-connected industry, and how Lynxis is working with customers to pull infrastructure, equipment, tech, and people together into one highly orchestrated model. [24.50] How Lynxis is utilizing advanced technology to provide the mission-critical solutions that organizations need to tackle challenges, achieve orchestration, and eliminate the risks that slow the flow of cargo. “It's about building the tech to proactively monitor, using real-time vision systems, in order to keep the flow of goods moving well.” “We are in the digital planning game. How do we model something and look at the differences between a hypothetical and real life, and which works better? And you can only do that with data.” [30.42] The importance of orchestration and optimization, and two case studies showing how Lynxis has helped key clients achieve big results. [35.24] Lynxis' vision of the landside logistics facilities of tomorrow, and how they're working towards making that vision a reality. “Our goal is to democratize, and make manual terminals more automated, without spending millions of dollars on tech and infrastructure.” RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: Head over to Lynxis' website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Bangladesh is facing unrest, with ensuring peace being the foremost challenge. While it was expected that violence would cease after Sheikh Hasina's resignation, the situation has worsened, particularly with escalating atrocities against Bangladeshi Hindus. Why is the caretaker government under Mohammed Yunus letting people run amok and not ensuring communal harmony? Before her exit, Sheikh Hasina claimed that "conspiracies" were being plotted to topple her government. She alleged that the US intended to acquire St Martin's Island to build a military base in exchange for the BNP's electoral victory. Is it true that this island influenced how the US sought to steer Bangladesh's political landscape? Given that both the US and China believe the BNP would align more closely with them, which superpower is getting its calculations wrong? In this episode of Geeta's World, our host, Anna Priyadarshini, and the foreign affairs editor at India Today, TV Today Network, Geeta Mohan, discuss! Listen in!

IN THIS EPISODE: Was the Unidentified Cape Cod Murder Victim an Extra in Jaws? Horror author Joe Hill thinks so. (Murder On The Set of Jaws) *** Of the many mysterious and ominous places on earth, many bodies of water are said to be cursed, haunted, or both. For whatever reason these lakes have drawn about them tales of misfortune, terror, and death, and they continue to elude rational answers. I'll share some of the strangest. (Cursed Lakes) *** At the dawn of the 20th Century Ambrose Bierce was one of the most famous writers in America. And then he mysteriously vanished. (The Disappearance of Ambrose Bierce) *** Charles Willey experienced hundreds of fires on his property in the summer of 1948 – but how did they start? (The Macomb Firestarter) *** Two men interested in the same woman – all three spending a day together. Not a good plan from the start. Add a bit of alcohol and you just may have a powder keg ready to explode. (Rum, Jealously, and Murder) *** Over the course of just two years, Christopher Duntsch operated on 38 patients in the Dallas area, leaving 31 paralyzed or seriously injured and two of them dead. It's no wonder he was given the morbid nickname of “Dr. Death”. (Doctor Death) *** A child's game of hide-and-seek turns to terror. (The House At The Front) *** In the Outback of Queensland, Australia, ghostly orbs of light have been frightening people for centuries. What do we know about the mystery of the orbs and what are some of the theories about what they could be? (The Min Min Orbs) *** Are extraterrestrials secretly watching over us and saving us from our own destruction? (Our Alien Protectors) *** Was the mass suicide at Jim Jones' commune in Guyana in 1978 a CIA mind control experiment?

Orchestrate all the Things podcast: Connecting the Dots with George Anadiotis
"Data Rules" is a book about data, but not just about big data crunching. A book about the relationship of data with economic institutions and society, but also about the interplay with data technologies by which data are being generated and processed. A book that is critical, but not ideological. This is how Jannis Kallinikos describes "Data Rules: Reinventing the Market Economy", a book co-authored by himself and Cristina Alaimo and recently published by The MIT Press. Jannis Kallinikos is Full Professor of Organization Studies and the CISCO Chair in Digital Transformation and Data Driven Innovation at LUISS University, Rome. This is where we met to talk about the key concepts in "Data Rules": Understanding data generation and useHow data is breaking boundariesPlatforms and choiceThe illusion of objectivityAlgorithms, agency and surveillanceFrom market and design rules to data rules Article published on Orchestrate all the Things: https://linkeddataorchestration.com/2024/07/01/data-rules-from-interoperability-to-commensurability/

Natalie Trevithick, head of investment grade corporate bonds at Payden & Rygel, says that companies prepared for the high-interest rate environment in advance, in ways that have allowed the bond market to avoid the rise in defaults that typically hits during rate hikes, but that also contributed to stronger economic growth, which has allowed inflation to be sticky without a lot of pain to the economy. It's part of why the inverted yield curve hasn't indicated a recession yet, and Trevithick thinks the Fed should be able to pull off a soft landing for the economy if it starts cutting late this year or potentially in 2025. Cassandra Happe discusses WalletHub's just-released 2024 Social Media Shopping Survey, which found that most consumers say social media is contributing to their bad spending habits and mistakes. JoAnne Feeney, partner and portfolio manager at Advisors Capital Management, brings her top-down approach to the Market Call.

What is a universal semantic layer, and how is it different from a semantic layer? Are there actual semantics involved? Who uses that, how, and what for? When Cube Co-founder Artyom Keydunov started hacking away a Slack chatbot back in 2017, he probably didn't have answers to those questions. All he wanted to do was find a way to access data using a text interface, and Slack seemed like a good place to do that. Keydunov had plenty of time to experiment, validate, and develop Cube, as well as get insights along the way. We caught up and talked about all of the above, as well as Cube's latest features and open source core. Article published on Orchestrate all the Things.
The Carolina Panthers offense has undergone a complete remodel after a putrid 2023 season. Dave Canales comes over from Tampa Bay, where he served as the Buccaneers offensive coordinator, to lead the charge as the Panthers head coach and offensive play caller. Canales is joined by a host of assistants with NFL experience and relationships dating back to his time in Seattle. Of course, those aren't the only key additions made this offseason as the Panthers were aggressive in securing Bryce Young protection upfront by investing heavily on the offensive line. New general manager Dan Morgan also showed his ability to execute shrewd trades using draft capital to secure two top WR targets and a potential bellcow in the backfield for Young. Julian Council takes a look at the Panthers offenses offseason rebuild.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Game off! We gotta talk more about MONOPOLY GO!
