The word "slave" cannot be found in the Torah. After all, the Torah was written in Hebrew, not English. But more still, the Hebrew version of the word for slave actually can mean a lot of other things, too: worker, servant, subject, intimate. Were the Hebrews who built the pyramids really slaves or just "laborers"? Why is an English dictionary so much bigger than a Hebrew one? Did Moses speak the same Hebrew as Gal Gadot? To answer these questions and more, I spoke with a scholar of Classics and Biblical Hebrew who is himself a native speaker of Modern Hebrew, Professor Azzan Yadin-Israel.
Lior Yadin from EntityMed discusses the use of AI technology in the aesthetic space. The technology allows patients to visualize their potential results before undergoing procedures, improving the consultation process and setting realistic expectations. The AI algorithm is trained to understand how tissues will behave post-procedure and generates a spectrum of possible results. The technology also helps with lead generation and patient acquisition, attracting potential clients and providing a more engaging experience. The future of AI in aesthetics is expected to include simulations as the gold standard and a shift towards online purchases and consultations.TakeawaysAI technology in aesthetics allows patients to visualize potential results before undergoing procedures, improving the consultation process and setting realistic expectations.The AI algorithm is trained to understand how tissues will behave post-procedure and generates a spectrum of possible results.AI technology helps with lead generation and patient acquisition, attracting potential clients and providing a more engaging experience.The future of AI in aesthetics is expected to include simulations as the gold standard and a shift toward online purchases and consultations.Timestamp(00:00) Introduction and Background(00:29) The Need for AI in Aesthetics(01:22) How the Technology Works(03:44) Pre-Education and Setting Expectations(04:04) Lead Generation and Patient Acquisition(06:04) Expanding into Other Industries(07:28) Comparing Simulation to Actual Results(08:21) The Future of AI in Aesthetics(10:59) Choosing Aesthetics as a Niche(12:09) Global Adoption of AI in Aesthetics(13:25) Upselling and Cross-Selling(20:24) Managing Leads and Conversions(25:24) The Convenience of Online Purchases(26:08) Reactivating the Patient Database(28:06) The Shift to Inbound Marketing(30:12) The Psychology of Buying(31:02) Upselling and Cross-Selling Success Stories(32:16) The Marriage of Psychology and Technology(33:10) Conclusion and Next StepsConnect with me on:Linkedin InstagramWatch Episodes on Youtube

They delve into examples of how Switch partners with large companies and why so many digital transformations are failing within enterprises. ---------Key Quotes:“A lot of people think it costs you way more to go green. No, not necessarily. It's not true. It depends on how you do it. But when you have a middleman who is buying the energy for you and then marking it up 80 percent and selling it to you, then yes, it's going to cost more. But if you can buy direct, you're going to get a much better bang for your buck.”“When C-level executives want to do digital transformation, it is a necessity that they have buy-in from the team. It is a necessity that they figure out, am I making sure that these employees don't feel fear because of this change? Am I making sure that they still feel valued? Am I making sure that I'm assigning the right tasks to the right people?

Is implementing generative AI different from implementing other tools? Should CIOs build or buy, and how should they choose their AI partners? IIn this episode, Yadin sits down with Suhail Nimji, VP/Head of Business Development, Corporate Development, and Partnerships at Jasper, to discuss what he is seeing and hearing in the market. They dive into the change management differences with AI, as well as the questions CIOs should ask as they build AI partnerships.---------Key Quotes:“This is a journey, not a sort of, hey, we've implemented this thing and let's go. And so when I talk to CIOs about the landscape, it's more so who can you partner with on this journey? And I think that's the most important thing to think about. Because it will be iterative.”“The CIO's job is to be thinking about the next frontier constantly while having one eye on the present and one eye on the future. And to think that this is like a net new sort of revelation for them would be remiss. Their entire job with their leadership is to think about, how are we implementing the best technology for our customers, for our employees? How do we give the best experience?

Incidents like the Log4j incident and new governmental regulations have forced tech leaders to examine the security of their software supply chain. Understanding the complexities of this is challenging; how can CIOs determine their exposure and prioritize their vulnerabilities? In this conversation, Yadin sits down with Chip Childers, VP Security, Compliance, Open-Source & Privacy Engineering & Chief Open Source Officer at VMware and Jim Mercer, Research Vice President - DevOps & DevSecOps at IDC, to discuss the software supply chain and how CIOs should think about it, in depth. They look at how we became so reliant on the open-source community and the impact of generative AI.Key Quotes:“When you talk about the idea of having to have development resources to do patching, it's those transitive dependencies, honestly, that you may not be able to patch because you're relying on other people's work. That's why understanding this complexity really matters.” - Chip “I don't think a lot of organizations realize how dependent they are on this open source community as we've started to kind of grow out, develop applications and rely so heavily on open source.”- Jim---------Timestamps:(01:15) Why are we concerned about the software supply chain?(05:25) Building complex systems on top of other complex systems(08:15) Realizations from the Log4j incident (11:22) Resulting shifts from new compliance and regulations(16:21) Creative chaos in the software industry (18:48) Reliance on the open-source community (19:23) How can you identify where code is coming from?(20:17) Prioritizing vulnerabilities (23:08) The snowball effect in the supply chain(25:00) How do you understand your exposure?(33:15) The impact of generative AI (37:27) Where should CIOs start heading into board level conversations? --------Links:Chip Childers on LinkedInJim Mercer on LinkedInCIO Exchange on TwitterYadin Porter de León on Twitter[Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple PodcastFor more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio
Israel is often lauded as the “Startup Nation” for its exceptional talent in fostering innovative technology startups. However, the recent escalation of conflict between Israel and Hamas, marked by an unprecedented attack that claimed over 1400 lives and resulted in numerous hostages, has posed a significant challenge to the tech sector. In an interview with Biznews, Israeli tech pioneer, Yadin Kaufmann said that the tech sector has been directly impacted by the ongoing crisis, with approximately 15% of the 360,000 reservists called into active duty coming from this industry. Furthermore, he noted that investments in and acquisitions of Israeli companies are currently on hold. But he said, the country functions, Israel is an extremely resilient country, it is not the end of the Israeli tech sector or Israeli economy and they would come back from it. On the continuance of a programme, he launched over the past 16 years to help Palestinians create a technology ecosystem, the tech entrepreneur said that the programme is on hold just as several companies were in the late stages of preparing offers for Palestinian interns. Despite his shock and horror about the Hamas attack, Kaufmann says he is hopeful that once the fighting is over the Israelis will find a way to continue working with Palestinians, but he thinks that is going to take a change in leadership, on both sides. – Linda van Tilburg

What mindset shift should CIOs and CTOs make in order to succeed in an AI-driven world? How can they take control of their destinies and future proof to ensure responsible AI use in their organization? In this episode, Yadin sits down with Jeff Boudier, who is responsible for Product and Growth at Hugging Face, to discuss in depth. They cover using a principles-first approach, teaching a machine to be friendly, and increases in productivity. ---------Key Quotes:“AI is becoming the default way to build technology and most technology is going to be running some machine learning models in the background. Those models are going to be running everywhere from cloud to data center all the way to your pocket.”“At the end of the day, what I'm really looking forward to is for every single company in the world to be able to build and own their own models.”“Open models, open datasets and open source AI are really the only way forward for enterprises. If they want to be future-proof, in terms of auditability, in terms of regulation, in terms of compliance, then it's about being in control of your own destiny, right? Because AI is so key to everything you're going to be offering to customers.”---------Timestamps:(01:46) The start of Hugging Face seven years ago (02:41) What was machine learning like at that time?(03:49) Teaching a machine to be friendly (04:46) The shift that resulted from the seminal paper “Attention Is All You Need”(06:20) The shift from writing an application to finding a model(07:18) The increase in productivity from machine learning (08:21) Ethical use of AI (09:55) Are enterprises ready to think through complex AI questions?(11:08) How CTOs are moving to a “model mindset”(12:20) Evaluating models (14:40) Offering end-to-end solutions (16:13) Using a first principles approach (20:49) Where will AI run? --------Links:Jeff Boudier on LinkedInCIO Exchange on TwitterYadin Porter de León on Twitter[Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple PodcastFor more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio
Many of the challenges facing the healthcare industry became common knowledge throughout the pandemic. How has industry thinking shifted with the emergence of new technologies and solutions? How can we think about tackling these huge issues at this point? Peter Shen, Head of Digital Health - North America at Siemens Healthineers, joins the podcast to discuss how emerging technologies, including AI and LLMs, can help move the needle in democratizing healthcare. He and Yadin dive into the challenges clinicians face in utilizing vast amounts of clinical data, as well as using AI as a companion to physicians and a resource to patients.---------Key Quotes:“So, tremendous amount of data that's being generated. The rate that's being generated doesn't even compare to the much slower growth rate of new clinicians, new doctors that are coming into health care. So as you can imagine, there's this gap that's growing…The clinician just doesn't have time to consume all this patient data that's being generated.”“Unfortunately patients have heart attacks in all parts of the country, rural, or in the big city or whatnot. But now being able to enable the patient to go to their local hospital, get the same level of care that they could get if they went to a larger institution because you have the ability to have these shorthanded resources, now leverage technologies like remote, scanning capabilities to be able to take care of the patient from afar.”---------Timestamps:(01:14) The unique challenges in healthcare right now (02:37) The trend towards burn-out and “re-careering”(04:14) The increase in healthcare data and limited capacity to utilize it (07:58) How does Siemens approach such big problems?

How does cybersecurity impact the global economy and geopolitical landscape? How is AI changing the game? Yadin sits down with renowned cybersecurity strategist, advisor and geopolitics thought leader Dmitri Alperovitch to discuss this in depth. They dive into the current geopolitical landscape and how CIOs should be thinking about global macro trends as they build their security strategy. Dmitri also shares his thoughts on the ransomware insurance industry and predictions for future actions from China.---------Key Quotes:"So those are the types of things that you want to be thinking about as an organization is: What are you not practicing? What disaster recovery scenarios? It's great that you have backups, but have you ever actually tried to recover everything?...And what other resiliency mechanisms do you have inside your network that may not be cyber- or even technology-related, that would allow you to operate your business?""One of the things that everyone should be thinking about is how geopolitical events, like frankly the Russian invasion of Ukraine and similar events in the future, can affect your business and your operations. One of the things that companies had to figure out once Russia invaded Ukraine is how to pull out of the country in a responsible fashion. How, if they couldn't pull out completely, to isolate the operations in country from being able to impact operations globally, in case the Russian government decides to do nefarious things on your network or pressure your local employees to do something. And that's something that I think everyone should be paying attention to when it comes to China."

Striking the balance between data access and security has always been a nuanced challenge for tech leaders, long before the rise of generative AI. But now, how does AI play into the need for data literacy and data democratization? In this episode, Yadin sits down with Trevor Schulze, the CIO of Alteryx, to discuss the importance of data democratization amidst the “intelligence era”. They discuss creating data-literate teams, empowering your employees with data and the value of speed to insight.---------Key Quotes:“People talk about a data-driven culture and what does that mean? It means that you need to encourage and reward people to ask and seek questions through data.”“We always paid attention to data, right? That's our job. But really we have to refresh and rethink and reimagine what we have to do in order to enable these intelligence systems to really take advantage of advanced capabilities.”“You need a literate group of people in your company who are going to have the ability to take advantage of these new AI enabled systems in this era of intelligence.”Time stamps:(00:00) Upskilling IT teams with data literacy (01:50) How Trevor is enabling teams amidst AI(03:56) What really is data literacy?

While it is not a new issue, managing talent continues to be an important challenge for technology leaders. Abhimanyu Saxena is the Co-Founder of Scaler, an online transformative upskilling platform for working tech professionals. In this episode, Abhimanyu and Yadin dive into retaining, upskilling and reskilling talent, discussing best practices that will help both employers and employees navigate this changing landscape. They touch on everything from standard approaches, to the major shifts in the marketplace and talent requirements presented by emerging AI technology.Key Quotes:“For a software engineering professional or a data scientist, most important is learning to learn. That is much more important than what is the framework or technology that you might know today, because whatever you know is going to get outdated in few years.” “The most important part of any upskilling effort is that, is this active learning versus passive learning? Generally, passive learning doesn't lead to much of an impact.”“Generally, the best performers, the most impactful employees of the company, are the people who have seen all the facades, all the faces of the product. And now they have that intuition [about] what really adds value to your customers.”“Generative AI, ChatGPT, is exceptionally powerful. But, despite that, there will be a time where it hits it's limit and then you have to resort back to human intuition and problem solving and move ahead. So you cannot be totally reliant on that. It's very similar to how a calculator is a powerful tool for a mathematician, but a mathematician's intellect is not in a calculator. That stays with the mathematician."Time stamps:(01:00) Thoughts on the need for IT talent(02:49) What employers look for in employees(04:25) The importance of employing problem-solvers(07:50) Examples of how that looks in organizations(11:51) Ways to approach upskilling and reskilling(13:35) The benefits of retaining and moving talent (20:47) How Scaler upskills and reskills(22:56) The issues with a one-size fits all approach(26:15) How has Scaler's approach evolved?(28:37) How are technology leaders are talking about generative AI?--------Links:Abhimanyu Saxena on LinkedInCIO Exchange on TwitterYadin Porter de León on Twitter[Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple PodcastFor more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio

Imagine your marketing team working on a project with clear guidelines. They know what their end goal is. Everyone's executing their role, communicating seamlessly, and meeting deadlines. The result? Marketing perfection. This could be you, after you listen to this.We've all experienced the frustration of working on a project where expectations and roles aren't clear. Some people put in more effort than others, work is sloppy, deadlines are missed. There's an imbalance that makes getting any work done nearly impossible.But there's a magic that happens when you foster a culture of communication, trust, and cohesion; working together as one. And through this culture, you can power amazing results.On this episode of Remarkable, we're getting in the groove with the help of Webby Honoree and Global Executive Content Marketing Lead at VMware, Yadin Porter de León. Together, we're exploring how to foster internal cohesion for B2B marketing success and taking lessons from The Mandalorian. So you can take your marketing team by the hands and say, ‘This is the way.”About The MandalorianThe Mandalorian is a Star Wars TV series that launched in 2019. It's created and executive produced by Jon Favreau, who we know on Remarkable for also directing and executive producing Iron Man. Jon Favreau partnered with Lucas Film and Disney for the production of the series. It's considered a space western and is the first live action TV series in the franchise. It stars Pedro Pascal as the main character, Din Djarin. And the show premiered on Disney+ on November 12, 2019. It's now in its third season with a fourth in development.The Mandalorian takes place after The Return of the Jedi and the fall of the Galactic Empire. Din Djarin is a lone bounty hunter who's hired by Imperial Forces to go get the child Grogu aka Baby Yoda. Instead, Din Djarin ends up going on the run to protect Grogu and reunite Grogu with his kind.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Mandalorian: Align across the C-suite about your strategic go-to-market strategy. Once leadership agrees on the strategy, messaging, channels, and target customers, they can direct the rest of the company. But Yadin says it's not just about creating a doc or a presentation. It's about building relationships, gaining trust, and getting buy-in from people. He says, “That agreement takes a lot of work. It takes a lot of alignment across so many different stakeholders and interests. And then once you have that, you have everyone who's bought into it able to move in the same direction.”Give your marketing team guardrails and the end goal, and then let them decide how they get to the finished product. You've got a brilliant team of marketers at your service, so trust their ingenuity. Give them the autonomy to use their creativity and problem solving skills to achieve the end result you're looking for. Ian says, “The idea of ‘This is the way,' this is our marketing strategy, allows people to be very creative within those left and right limits." And Yadin adds, "Don't tell them how to do it, but tell them what the vision and the outcome is and then see what amazing things they create.”Quotes*”The mantra of, ‘This is the way' demonstrates the way in which multiple different people can follow the same path and produce great results, and create great value when they don't have to be born in the same area or be brought up in the same way.” - Yadin Porter de Léon“That mantra applied to B2B marketing can be extremely powerful if you have messaging and branding consistency. Where you go to market in the same way across all of your geos, across all your departments, across all of your business units instead of having all these weird, crazy, fragmented things that may seem cool at the time, but not actually showing up in the market in a way that will actually tell a consistent story.” - Yadin Porter de Léon“There are bad things too. Like, you can get stuck, lost in cookie pulling and retargeting and brand ads and all the things we've always done the same way. And so ‘This is the way' means basically, you know, get on board, or else,” - Yadin Porter de Léon*”Create a vision and then inspire those people who want to be creative to be creative, because now they have the guardrails. Don't tell them how to do it, but tell them what the vision and the outcome is and then see what amazing things they create.” - Yadin Porter de LéonTime Stamps[1:40] Get to know Yadin Porter de Léon, Global Executive Content Marketing Lead at VMware[2:19] Tell me more about The Mandalorian[8:52] What's the story behind how The Mandalorian was made?[12:11] What are the core truths behind the Mandalorian?[14:58] How can “This is the way” be applied to B2B marketing?[17:52] Learn more about OneVMware[18:18] What role does leadership play in establishing internal alignment[19:44] Tell me more about the podcast CIO Exchange [28:52] How to bring your brand to market in a way that will resonate with your audienceLinksWatch “The Mandalorian”Connect with Yadin on LinkedInLearn more about VMwareAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Si uno entrara a un auditorio y preguntará ¿cuál es el fruto prohibido? Podríamos decir que la inmensa mayoría contestaría que este fue la manzana. Sin embargo ¿fue siempre la manzana? Si abrimos el Génesis se nos habla del "fruto del conocimiento del bien y del mal"... nunca se nos habla de una manzana... es más hasta el siglo XII no aparece mención de la manzana como posibilidad para identificar esta fruta. ¿Cómo llegó a ser una manzana? ¿Cómo se universalizó? ¿Cuáles eran las otras opciones? En una apasionante charla con el Dr. Azzan Yadin Israel nos cuenta como descubrió un "error" en la teoría general aceptada hasta este momento de este fenómeno y nos presenta cual es su teoría.
As a service models can help companies become more agile, which may provide more choices for digital solutions. Lenovo helps their clients build digital resiliency through application changes, leveraging cloud, and narrowing the IT skill gap.Yadin speaks with Dale Aultman, VP & GM of Infrastructure Solutions Group Services at Lenovo. Dale has almost 30 years of experience in IT strategy, execution and leadership. She helps Lenovo create as a service solutions, smarter technology, and go-to-market maintenance support. In this episode, Dale describes the importance of digital resiliency, the success of as a service models, and leveraging hybrid cloud for consistent operation models.---------Key Quotes:“From an as a service model, whether it be cloud or on-prem, you can better align your cost to your needs and use it to help you become more agile… I think that there's some interesting models from a cloud standpoint and from an as a service standpoint that can help clients navigate where they need to go and where they need to make some of those transitions from a digitization standpoint.”“If you want to take advantage of cloud, can your applications be migrated to cloud? There's a lot of legacy infrastructure out there, from even a cloud standpoint. What if you put something on a public cloud and all of a sudden your costs go up to X? These are real things that we've seen in the industry.”“A lot of clients are trying to align their cost with usage. And be able to leverage the latest technology, but also put their workloads in the right place. So if you think about things from a workload standpoint, that's really the starting point, as far as the needs for different workloads. Some are gonna work great in the public cloud, some of them are gonna be more expensive in the public cloud. So how do you look at a hybrid option to give you the economics of paying as you go? Aligning your cost with your usage and go into more of a hybrid model that allows you to take advantage of public cloud?“It's not just about hybrid cloud, it's also about digital work for solutions. And then frankly, while as a service will grow, it will probably grow faster than traditional IT. We also have a really good business in traditional IT. So it is about providing choice, and then it's about partnering with the industry leaders.”“I don't think that there's gonna be a one size fits all. I think it is about providing choice. It's gonna be about providing flexibility. And it's gonna be about helping clients fill those skill gaps when they identify that they just need to focus on higher value.”“CIOs are looking at hybrid cloud. I think there's a good reason for that. They wanna leverage the best of both. Where can they get the most benefit out of public cloud? And when can they get the most benefit of keeping something on-prem? DevOps may be something that just makes sense to be able to use public cloud for. Developing in a cloud native way helps set clients up for the future. Where can they get the best of both worlds? As well as the security that they need at the right cost point.”---------Time stamps:01:47 Risks of ignoring digital resiliency03:44 Success of as a service models04:59 Challenges of becoming more resilient07:48 What should companies prioritize?12:56 How IT leaders can enact change16:09 The skill gap issue23:44 Leveraging hybrid cloud25:44 Consistent operational models28:47 Successfully deploying cloud30:43 Where to connect with Dale---------Links:Dale on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daleaultman/CIO Exchange on Twitter: https://twitter.com/vmwcioexchangeYadin Porter de León on Twitter: https://twitter.com/porterdeleon [Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cio-exchange-podcast/id1498290907 For more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio
Temptation Transformed: The Story of How the Forbidden Fruit Became an Apple (University of Chicago Press, 2023) by Dr. Azzan Yadin-Israel presents a journey into the mystery behind why the forbidden fruit became an apple, upending an explanation that stood for centuries. Dr. Yadin-Israel reveals that Eden's fruit, once thought to be a fig or a grape, first appears as an apple in twelfth-century French art. He then traces this image back to its source in medieval storytelling. Though scholars often blame theologians for the apple, accounts of the Fall written in commonly spoken languages—French, German, and English—influenced a broader audience than cloistered Latin commentators. Dr. Yadin-Israel shows that, over time, the words for “fruit” in these languages narrowed until an apple in the Garden became self-evident. A wide-ranging study of early Christian thought, Renaissance art, and medieval languages, Temptation Transformed offers an eye-opening revisionist history of a central religious icon. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Many articulate a desire for peace in the Middle East, but few have demonstrated a life-long commitment to the cause quite like today's guest, social entrepreneur Yadin Kaufmann.After graduating from Harvard Law, Yadin spent a couple of years in the Israeli Supreme Court, then joined Israel's very first venture capital firm, Athena. Yadin was an early investor in high-tech and ultimately realized that this was the vehicle he could use to navigate a historical problem. He also decided that the best thing he could do with his hard-won knowledge was share it — with Israelis and Palestinians alike.storymark is brought to you by itrek studios. itrek is a non-profit that inspires tomorrow's leaders through peer-led, week-long treks in Israel to experience its innovation, diversity, and complex reality firsthand.

Many of our guests on B-Time are focused exclusively on a B2B model. Today, we are changing it up a bit and are focusing on the direct to consumer model. Trillions of dollars are spend out of pocket by consumers on health and wellness goods and services. One company, Intrinsic, is taking full advantage of this consumer spend and is buying smaller consumer wellness companies to become a Brand powerhouse. With us is Yadin Shemmer, the founder and CEO of Intrinsic and he'll share his view of the market and what he sees as emerging trends in this space. Yadin has a bachelors from the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from the London Business School. I am excited for Yadin to share his thoughts because as we all know, consumer behavior eventually makes it way into the more traditional areas of healthcare. Over time some of this direct spend will find its way into health plan coverage.
