I remain bullish about some aspects of this game-changing technology and intensely skeptical of others. Which makes it a fascinating topic. Worthy of a fascinating guest, who not only has opinions but has real-world applications for the tech you might not have thought of.
Sharon Easterling has a towering, all-consuming passion for AI, specifically bridging the gap between technology and the mid-revenue cycle and navigating a technological future that can seem overwhelming. But she also leans into its creativity. She even sent me a new OTR podcast jingle created with AI! You can hear it on this episode.
