In der aktuellen Podcastfolge spricht Axel Metz mit dem Musiker Michael Patrick Kelly über dessen Teilnahme an der TV-Show "Sing meinen Song - das Tauschkonzert" . In dem Gespräch geht es unter anderem um die Verbindung zwischen Künstlern durch Musik und die Herausforderungen der Neuinterpretation von Liedern. “Es ist einfach verrückt, wie jedes Mal sieben verschiedene Künstler und Künstlerinnen aufeinander treffen, die sich teilweise gar nicht kennen. Ja, und innerhalb kürzester Zeit werden auch Fremde Freunde und das schafft wirklich die Musik, weil es berührt und es verbindet, “sagt Michael Patrick Kelly, “und dieser Tausch der Songs, ja, dass man Songs von einem anderen Künstler in ein anderen Musikgenre umwandelt. Manchmal werden Texte komplett neu umgeschrieben oder von Englisch auf Deutsch übersetzt. Das ist so verrückt, was da alles passiert und wir wissen ja alle nicht vorher, welcher Song genommen wird und von wem und in welcher Art und Weise er vorgetragen wird. Das ist eine Sendung, die ich einfach unfassbar gerne mache und nach 5 Jahren wieder dabei zu sein und diesmal als Gast, nicht als Gastgeber war auch für mich voll schön, weil dann konnte ich mich ein bisschen zurücklehmen und das einfach genießen.” Michael Patrick Kelly teilt seine persönlichen Erfahrungen aus der Show, wie die emotionale Performance eines Songs über seine verstorbene Mutter und die kreative Anpassung eines Liedes der Fantastischen Vier.

" We did a survey with The Economist globally which obviously included Europe and APAC as well. And we asked the question, 'Does my organization's current architecture supports the unique demands of AI workloads.' Basically 85% said, 'No. We don't have the architecture to support it.' Some partially does, but it needs lots of modifications. So we can still feel a lot of people are still in the early stages and that data point ties back to: 85% of GenAI [proof of concepts] has not gone into production. I think that another interesting point is, 'Does your architecture connect AI application? -your relevant business data.' which is probably nearly even more important for me. Again, it was still about 80%- 'We don't have that.' Because that business data is all over the place. Without the clean data, you cannot get good AI." - Patrick Kelly Fresh out of the studio, Patrick Kelly, Senior Director for Digital Natives, Startups & Enterprise and Commercial Sales in Southeast Asia at Databricks, joins us to discuss how data intelligence is powering enterprise AI applications in ASEAN.

Emphasizing the critical role of data quality in AI success, he showcased compelling customer case studies from across ASEAN and revealed striking generative AI trends in Asia - notably that 85% of organizations lack proper architecture to support AI workloads, reinforcing that clean data remains foundational for effective AI implementation. Patrick concluded by sharing his vision of what success looks like for Databricks in Southeast Asia.
