I always learn something practical and actionable from the use cases described by the guests. Brian is a great host!
It’s like an academic’s secret super power - this podcast is excellent for sharpening your saw on current issues as we witness AI’s impact and the thought leaders who are transforming education. Brian really works hard to have contemporary and insightful guests on the show every Tim. 🙏🙌👏
I’ve been listening to Brian throughout this great acceleration of AI in our lives. He devotes a lot of time in understanding what works and what doesn’t, and is a master at making using AI very practical and tremendously effective. Definitely follow this show!
As an AI enthusiast, I had high hopes for Brian Piper’s new podcast, and the first episode exceeded even them. The structure of the show is spot on. It opens with a fantastic AI use case you can implement right away, then swings into a rollicking interview with marketing heavyweight Mark Schaefer. It’s like a mini marketing course in a half hour podcast. Can’t recommend highly enough.
