This Week: Saul Colt, Adam Holden-Bache, and Cyndee Woolley join Bob to discuss WPP's latest restructure, the end of white-collar workers, using a competing brand in your ad, why the US loves F1 now, plus this week's #FairFailFoul.  

Learn how AI agents are reshaping enterprise decision-making, AI governance, and brand creativity. Daniel Hulme, Chief AI Officer at WPP & CEO of Satalia/Conscium, explains how AI agents, decision intelligence, and his concept of “brand brains” (AI systems designed to create brand-specific, production-grade content) are changing how organizations operate. He shares why companies don't have data problems but decision-making problems, and how AI can augment human creativity at scale. Key Moments: From Academic AI Research to Enterprise AI Systems (01:50): Daniel traces his 25-year journey in AI, from studying intelligence and consciousness at UCL to building real-world systems inside global enterprises. He explains how curiosity about what it means to be human ultimately shaped his approach to building practical, responsible AI at scale. AI Agents and Risk: Why AI Needs Governance (05:50): Daniel introduces a defining metaphor, describing AI agents as intoxicated graduates—confident, fast, and often wrong. He uses this framing to explain why unchecked agent deployment is risky and why governance, testing, and supervision are essential as organizations scale AI. What Most Organizations Get Wrong About AI Testing: (14:00): Daniel breaks down the difference between testing for knowledge versus testing for real capability. He argues that most companies stop at surface-level validation, creating a false sense of safety and trust. How AI Changes Business Decision-Making (24:45): Daniel challenges the traditional analytics mindset, arguing that dashboards and insights rarely lead to better decisions. He explains why AI should be designed to make decisions directly and why humans are fundamentally bounded when dealing with complex optimization problems. Brand Brains and the Future of Creative Differentiation (30:25): Daniel introduces the concept of “brand brains,” explaining why generic generative AI content won't create competitive advantage. He shows how agentic systems can produce brand-specific, production-grade content that actually differentiates businesses. Key Quotes: “ There are many things that our brains do that are different to large language models that I think will inspire us to create much more energy-efficient machines.” -  Daniel Hulme   “Giving human beings better insights doesn't typically lead to better decisions… So working backwards from the problem to the data historically, for me, has been a success.” - Daniel Hulme   “The reality is that those agents will go wrong… So there's going to be much more emphasis over the next year or so on governance [and] on making sure that they are capable of doing that job.” - Daniel Hulme  Mentions WPP's AI “brains” Will AI ever be better than humans at predicting what humans want? | WPP The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness by Mark Solms Guest Bio  Dr. Daniel Hulme is a globally recognised expert in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and investor in emerging technologies. He's the CEO of Satalia, an award-winning AI company that was acquired by the world's largest marketing company in 2021, WPP, where he is now the Chief AI Officer. Daniel has been recognised as one of the world's leading keynote speakers as well as one of the top ten Chief AI Officers globally. Amongst his many technology investments, Daniel is also Founder and CEO of the World's first commercial research organisation to understand Machine Consciousness, Conscium. With over 25 years academic experience with AI, Daniel received his Masters and Doctorate in AI at UCL. He was previously Director of UCL's Applied AI Masters Programme, where he is now UCL's Computer Science Entrepreneur-in-Residence. Daniel is also an Impact Board Member of St Andrew's University Computer Science department and the University of Sussex Informatics department, focused on using AI to solve business and social problems.

In an AI World, Creativity Matters More!In this clip, Andy Hood, Vice President of Emerging Technologies at WPP, reflects on how AI is reshaping the creative landscape.With channels more fragmented than ever and AI democratizing content creation, more people can produce more content, faster. That inevitably creates noise.But noise only increases the need for true creative cut-through. The difference between fleeting impressions and real engagement comes down to talent, craft, and human insight.In a world where everyone can create, standout creativity becomes even more valuable.Listen to the full podcast now- https://premade.outgrow.us/interview-with-andy-hood #Outgrow #Podcast #AndyHood #WPP #CreativeIndustry #AIinMarketing #CutThrough

Is AI conscious? Will it be someday? And should we be nice to it now... just in case?This FAFO Friday, Kwaku and I dive into the mind-bending world of machine consciousness.We cover a lot of ground, weaving from the different ways that Luke (co-dependent with R2) and Han (barking commands at C-3PO) treat their droids to whether Pascal's Wager informs whether we should believe in AI consciousness just in case they do come alive and have been keeping score. (Pascal figured it was the safe bet to believe in God, just in case; maybe we should do likewise?) That's from us knuckleheads, but we've also got a true expert on consciousness. This week I interviewed Daniel Hulme, one of the world's leading AI researchers. He's the Chief AI Officer at WPP, the CEO of Satalia (which WPP bought) and just founded and is CEO of Conscium, which is researching AI consciousness, efficiency (he thinks we're scaling wrong and LLM's are not the way), and building a platform to verify AI agents are safe. You'll hear the first five minutes of my interview with Daniel. Daniel was not surprised by Moltbook (the Reddit-style site that AI agents built for themselves). That's because he's been putting agents together (in a “primordial soup” as he put it) for decades to observe the wild and wonderful ways they behave and to see if they'd create intelligence.Daniel does not think today's agents are conscious, but can see a path to it. And he believes that a conscious superintellignece would be safer than a “zombie” one. But mostly he doesn't want machines to feel pain and suffer. Huh???My brain is still kind of broken from our hourlong chat, which I'm producing now and will be released in a few weeks. For now, enjoy this preview and more from Kwaku and me as we talk about what we expect from machines, whether we want to be one with them, and more…

Pour l'épisode de cette semaine, je reçois Maxime Garrigues, fondateur et CEO de GetInside.GetInside est une plateforme qui permet aux e-commerçants de monétiser leur audience grâce au retail media : insertion colis, emailings sponsorisés, activations social media, partenariats croisés… L'objectif ?

The Equality Conversation podcast with bestselling author Joy Burnford explores how to create better workplaces for women. In this series, Joy sits down with forward-thinking HR and people leaders to uncover the policies, practices and cultural shifts driving real impact for women's careers, wellbeing and sense of belonging. If you're seeking insights, inspiration and proven approaches to help people thrive in your organisation, you're in the right place. So grab a cuppa, head out for a walk, or simply escape for a while and tune in to today's conversation.In this episode, Joy Burnford speaks with Gill Hardy, Head of Executive Talent for EMEA at WPP plc and global lead of WPP's Stella network for women, about what it really takes to drive gender equality in a global organisation. Gill shares WPP's approach, from increasing the visibility of female leaders and investing in targeted development, to embedding inclusive policies across the business. She stresses the importance of continuous, data-driven action, noting that the gap between perceived progress and lived reality can be wider than many organisations realise. The conversation also explores the evolving role of women's networks, the value of welcoming male allies, and how everyday micro-inclusions - such as consciously inviting women to speak first in meetings - can have a powerful impact on culture change.

Kate Scott-Dawkins, Global President of Business Intelligence at WPP Media, joins AdTechGod to share how agencies use economic signals, advertiser trends, and emerging AI shifts to forecast the future of advertising while helping brands stay ahead in a rapidly changing world. Takeaways Kate's early exposure to advertising storytelling sparked her marketing path. A linguistics background trained her to spot patterns and build forecasts. Staying at WPP let her shape long-term strategy and thought leadership. Modern forecasting blends government, financial, and proprietary client signals. Global events, politics, economics, and climate directly move the markets. Industry consolidation is accelerating, concentrating ad revenue among a few sellers. WPP packages insight via forecasts, weekly updates, and rapid client POVs. AI adds speed by summarizing large datasets and supporting analysis workflows. AI is less reliable for producing genuinely original insight on its own. Commerce and creator ecosystems may be disrupted faster than search. Authenticity, disclosure, and watermarking are becoming critical trust issues. Verified human-made content could become a premium tier in the future economy.

On today's MadTech Daily, we cover ICE seeking ad tech and big data tools for investigations. We also look at major Meta news, including Threads rolling out global ads and Meta banning teens from AI bots amid a youth addiction trial, as well as WPP retiring Hogarth and launching WPP Production.

People First, AI in the MiddleIn this snippet, Andy Hood, Vice President of Emerging Technologies at WPP, shares what AI looks like inside one of the world's largest creative organizations.At WPP, teams across creative and media agencies now have equal, safe access to generative AI through WPP Open, a shared platform bringing major AI models into one interface.But Andy is clear:

Is your next big purchase going to be made by AI?

AI Can Generate. Creatives Define ‘Good.'In this snippet, Andy Hood, Vice President of Emerging Technologies at WPP, explains the real role of AI in creative production.Yes, tools like top-tier video generators can create impressive scenes. To most people, they look good enough. But a trained director sees the gaps, in framing, pacing, lighting, sound, and storytelling.Andy's point is clear:

Campaign LOVES a pitch story, and the tail end of last year was very busy with many pitches taking place or being won right up to the final week. WPP won the £1.5bn government media pitch and the expanded review for Jaguar Land Rover, as well as media for Kenvue, while Publicis Groupe picked up the creative for the consumer healthcare company. Aviva's creative account went to Saatchi & Saatchi and the shortlist for IKEA was announced with Just Eat also yet to conclude. In this episode, Campaign digs into the state of new business last year, and where the opportunities lie in 2026, examining which sectors and disciplines will likely see more pitches over the next 12 months.Tech and multimedia editor Lucy Shelley hosts the episode featuring Campaign's editor-in-chief Gideon Spanier, data journalist for Campaign Red Jamie Rossouw and deputy news editor, Marianne Calnan-Holland.Further reading:The CMO Outlook 2026UK new-business rankings: latest 2025Two-thirds of CMOs 'definitely' pitching in next 12 monthsMars to switch $1.7bn media account out of WPPNatWest picks IPG as it consolidates media and creative accountSantander appoints Publicis to global creative and media businessStarling banks on network media agency after three-way contestPublicis agency swipes Monzo media account after BBH creative winAsda confirms media and creative agency appointmentsPublicis scoops Coca-Cola media in North AmericaComing up in the Campaign calendar: Brand Film Awards: deadline on 15 January Hosted on Acast.

On today's MadTech Daily we cover Reddit launching an AI media buying tool, WPP launching Agent Hub to power agentic AI marketing, and a US judge rejecting Amazon's bid to dismiss a price gouging lawsuit.

On today's episode, Kara welcomes Gyve Safavi, Co-Founder and CEO of SURI — the award-winning sustainable electric toothbrush brand redefining how we care for our teeth, our health, and the planet.SURI was born from a simple but overlooked truth: every toothbrush you've ever owned still exists. In an industry built on disposability, Gyve and his Co-Founder, Mark Rushmore, saw an opportunity hiding in plain sight. They set out to create a beautifully designed, high-performance electric toothbrush made with better materials and built to last — resulting in a sleek aluminum body, recyclable plant-based heads, and thousands of passionate customers who believe in fewer, better products.Before launching SURI, Gyve spent years shaping global brands at Procter & Gamble, AKQA, and WPP — experiences that helped him reimagine what oral care could be. Raised in New York by immigrant parents who instilled the belief that anything was possible with enough focus, Gyve brings a thoughtful blend of purpose, discipline, and design-driven thinking to every part of the SURI journey.In this episode, Gyve shares how breaking a long-ignored category wide open required fresh thinking, how he and Mark balanced sustainability with true performance, and why community feedback has become central to SURI's evolution. He opens up about early challenges, product innovation, what's next with SURI 2.0, and how conscious entrepreneurship is reshaping consumer expectations in everyday essentials.A must-listen for anyone interested in sustainability, product innovation, consumer brands, or the art of turning a simple idea into a movement. Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?

It's a seismic change for several industries. Omnicom Group closed its $9 billion acquisition of Interpublic Group last Wednesday. In the days since, the deal has resulted in many job reductions as Omnicom tries to reach promised cost savings. For the PR sector, the deal means former Interpublic agencies Golin and The Weber Shandwick Collective are joining Omnicom PR, which includes FleishmanHillard, Ketchum, Porter Novelli and other firms under the leadership of CEO Chris Foster. Joining this week's podcast are Campaign's Luz Corona and MM+M's Jameson Fleming, who explain what the holding company mega-deal means for the creative and medical marketing sectors, respectively. Plus, some of the biggest marketing and communications news of the week, such as WPP delaying employee pay reviews until next spring and PRWeek's Best Places to Work 2025.

On this week's episode, the smoke is clearing in the Omnicom-IPG merger with a clearer look at how its media, tech and creative will operate going forward coming into focus. Plus, another ripple in OpenAI's author lawsuit begins to surface. Then (16:30), Digiday's senior marketing reporter Sam Bradley joins the show to discuss WPP's turbulent 2025, and what it'll take to turn things around in 2026.

At the start of the year, 2025 was predicted by some adland commentators to be the year for independent agencies. Omnicom was beginning to acquire IPG to make the largest holding company, redundancies occurred across some of the networks and WPP had a more-than-difficult year on top of a new chief executive.2025 has seen the launch of many independent agencies including Ace of Hearts, Studio.One and Baby Teeth, while Ark Agency and Uncharted came into their second year. Plus, IPG sold R/GA and Huge separately to private equity, also becoming independent. So now the year is almost up, Campaign's editorial team discuss whether independent media and creative agencies have benefited from distraction caused by the holding companies. Tech and multimedia editor Lucy Shelley hosts the episode and is joined by creativity and culture editor Gurjit Degun, media editor Beau Jackson and editor Maisie McCabe.Further reading:Omnicom reveals huge agency shake-up, unveils new leadership, cuts 4000 jobsAce of Hearts: dealing adland a new handTroy Ruhanen: 'I wouldn't have taken OAG job if it was all about efficiency and smashing things'Group M tells staff about redundancies as restructure hits UKOmnicom cut 3000 roles during 2024 ahead of IPG takeover moveMega merger adds to existing questions for InterpublicGlobal agency groups 2024 report card: Performances and staff numbers decline as restructures continue Hosted on Acast.

In 1968, Huey P. Newton told an interviewer that whites who wanted to support the Black Panthers should create the White Panther Party. Later that year, a trio of Michigan radical artists (John Sinclair, Leni Sinclair, and Plum Plamondon) did just that. Gaining notoriety from their campaigns to legalize marijuana, support political prisoners, and the popularity of revolutionary rockers the MC5, the White Panthers formed chapters around the country, and continued their activity through the seventies, long after other New Left formations dissolved.Among them was our guest today, Larry Weissman, aka DJ PreSkool. He joined the party in 1971 until he was jailed during a public dispute over gun rights against mayor Dianne Feinstein. We talk about the history of WPP, their political line, their alliances and disagreements with other New Left groups, the importance of weed and rock n' roll to their program, and how he continues that spirit today as house DJ in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.Check out PreSkool's Underground Syllabus Friday at Casette in Ridgewood, Queens: https://dice.fm/event/eoanp6-dj-preskools-underground-syllabus-14th-nov-cassette-new-york-city-ticketsDJ PreSkool's BandcampRead Guitar Army by John SinclairMore on WPP food program: https://www.foundsf.org/Hard-Left_Politics_Enters_the_People%E2%80%99s_Food_SystemMore on WPP wiretaps and entrapment: https://www.necessarystorms.com/home/watergate-wiretaps-and-the-white-panther-partyhttps://fifthestate.anarchistlibraries.net/library/101-march-19-april-1-1970-the-history-of-president-pigCheck out the rest of the Armed Love Series: https://www.patreon.com/collection/87680?view=expandedSong: Henry Rollins & Bad Brains - Kick Out the Jams

"There is no White Knight coming to save you." My former boss Lindsay Pattison said this to me recently, and it landed hard. Lindsay was global CEO of Maxus, part of Mark Read's core WPP team, running a global agency network at what she calls "200 miles an hour." At that speed, you don't have time to question whether you're going in the right direction. You just go. Until the day she realized: this pace was making decisions for her. So she did something radical. She chose to pause. Not because she had to. Because she wanted agency over what came next. The conversation we had about this decision is one of the most honest I've recorded. It's about: * What it really means to have agency when you're at the top (it's not what you think) * The responsibility that comes with leadership that nobody talks about * How to make massive life decisions without certainty * What happens when you stop running and start choosing This is exactly why I'm launching the new series Mojo Under Fire - conversations about the crucible moments that forge great leaders Remember to subscribe to be notified about new episodes.
