It's a bit crass to say security can help you sell, but it really kind of can.” “We're never going to win. We just have to give up on that entirely. There is no 100 percent secure, there's no done.

They specifically dissect the sustainable use of AI and explore the various considerations regarding how to employ it." --------- Key Quotes: “As technologists, we live and operate in an environment that has the ability to impact this in a meaningful way. How you choose the technologies you use, how you consume it, how do you kind of make it available to a broader subset of people so that they can enjoy the benefits that technology brings, those are all things under our control.” “As technology leaders, we're going to have to be a lot more conscious about the decisions we make as to where you use technology and how you do that. I think the sustainability framework we've been talking about gives you a much better, it's not that you're not going to make mistakes, but, it will be, it'll kind of weed out some of the really bad ideas very quickly”. --------- Timestamps: (00:50) Sustainability beyond the “green aspect” (02:01) The three “E’s” of sustainability (04:29) Applying the three E’s to AI (06:46) Ethical and “green” use of AI (09:40) AI to augment humans (18:00) The evolution of the definition of sustainability (23:07) The progression of technology and human knowledge (27:55) We broke it, and we can fix it (31:32) Will AI reach everyone equally?

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? Am I sure that they're not so afraid of the complexity of this change that they're not even going to do it?” --------- Timestamps: (01:31) The scale of Switch’s services (02:17) Why people aren’t running their own data centers (04:27) The value beyond a perfect uptime record (05:21) How Switch formed their buying cooperative (08:56) 100 percent renewable data centers (11:38) Becoming net water positive (12:38) How this supports customer ESG initiatives (13:45) The "AI gold rush" and lack of data center capacity (17:22) How Switch partners with companies / FedEx case study (19:48) Why are transformations failing?

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? Generative is just another sort of like, oh, look, there's another tool that we should go evaluate.” --------- Timestamps: (01:15) What is the current conversation about generative AI?

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?

Data Challenges and AI Opportunities in Healthcare with Peter Shen, Head of Digital Health - North America at Siemens Healthineers 26:11

26:11

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."

Generative AI: What CIOs Need to Know - with Paul Roetzer, CEO of Marketing AI Institute 40:59

2 years ago40:59

40:59

Generative AI is one of the most exciting and disruptive technologies to emerge in recent years. It has the potential to revolutionize the way we live and work, and it is already having a major impact on many industries. With the rapid advancement of Generative AI technology, businesses are scrambling to keep up and adapt to the new reality. As a technology leader, it's critical to understand the implications of generative AI and how it can be harnessed to gain a competitive edge. In this episode, we hear from Paul Roetzer, CEO and founder of the AI Marketing Institute. For the last decade, he has been immersed in the emerging capabilities of artificial intelligence and how it can be leveraged to help enterprise companies. He has watched closely as AL/ML has evolved into the large learning models (or LLMs) that have astonished the world with their ability to create, analyze and perform tasks that rival the capabilities of many knowledge workers. --------- Key Quotes: “What I always tell people is, AI's not gonna replace you. But people who use AI will replace people who don't. Basically in any career path, any knowledge work, any creative path. I do think, though, that the disruption to these professions is gonna be probably more significant in the near term than we expect.” “The best advice is, you just have to embrace the fact that the technology is going to continue to advance in a really, really rapid way. And you have to have the resources internally. Maybe it's an AI council, maybe it's a couple of people that are focused on this emerging area. You've gotta stay at the forefront of it and see around the corners because the lead time to know what's coming next is gonna keep getting shorter. Right now, we could probably reasonably project what life looks like 12 months from now. Anything beyond that is just a fool's errand.” “The blessing of ChatGPT in my world is it woke people up to the power of AI in good ways and in bad. Now people can envision the downsides as well. So now we can actually get to the important conversations around ethics and responsible application of AI and impact on workforces and things like that.” “I feel like we need more conversation around AI as a leverage point to create better working environments, better jobs, and more fulfilling lives for people, because otherwise I think it's just for nothing. Like, it's just another productivity gain and a missed opportunity to improve people's lives.” --------- Time stamps: 02:23 The rapid growth of AI 05:45 Staying up to date on emerging tech 07:01 Who’s going to do the innovating? 09:20 How to organize your AI team 011:39 Why education is so important 13:53 How ChatGPT works 14:40 What’s terrifying, what’s exciting? 16:37 How language models work 19:02 Will AI replace workers? 21:56 Embrace technology’s quick growth 23:22 Your whole organization should understand AI 27:58 How to build an intelligent company 31:44 The gifts ChatGPT brings 33:43 The future of AI 36:17 Pitching AI to the board 37:59 How to get involved --------- Links: Paul on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulroetzer/ CIO Exchange on Twitter: https://twitter.com/vmwcioexchange Yadin 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…

FedEx is an $87 billion business with over 560,000 team members around the world. At that scale, how does Rob Carter, FedEx CIO, approach business agility to stay ahead of the curve? In this episode, I speak with Rob Carter about what he has dubbed “the dominant architecture,” which allows industries to scale and has proven throughout history to increase global value creation exponentially. For technology leaders, this dominant architecture is now comprised of critical technologies like multi-cloud, containerized modern applications, AI enabled edge computing, and soon, blockchain. It is these technologies–and a shifting mindset that allows distributed teams to leverage them effectively–that is the driving force behind the next wave of innovation.
