  • Guests great, mark not

    The quality of guest is great - exactly the calibre you’d want to hear from on a podcast with this subject matter, across a good intersection of industries with honest insights. Mark asks stupid questions and bangs on about himself and his experience too much

  • Politics

    Your insight into the economy is very knowledgeable and astute, however because you vote for one party please don’t promote a future PM who has proven history and voted as the worst immigration minister ever, who has a long history of using immigration policy to divide deliberately and stoke division.

    Some great guests but Mark talks about himself too much. It’s not about him it should be about the guests.

How to Use AI Agents to Grow Your Business & Why AI Will Eliminate 50% of These Tasks by 2026
Q: What is an AI agent and how does it differ from traditional software?
An AI agent is a general purpose assistant that can connect to your CRM, email, calendar, and other tools to autonomously perform tasks, make decisions at points of context, and continuously improve. It's trained and managed like an employee, with governance and human oversight, rather than a static, rules-based software program.
