With me today is a guy I first met at South by Southwest when he was working for Rackspace, and I loved his unbridled enthusiasm for startups and entrepreneurs like me, as well as his deep knowledge and love of technology. He's the earliest adopter I've ever met and he's got a lot of experience with communication and technology. Lately, he's gone deep into AI.
We talk about all of that and more. I think you'll enjoy his stories of the good old days of technology when we were both a lot younger and dumber. And, he has a lot to share about the wave of AI that is washing over the world at an ever-increasing speed. He's got a ringside seat and is actually deep in the mix, so his perspective is very valuable. I hope you enjoy our conversation!

From building Apple 2 motherboards in his kitchen as a young boy with his mom to mapping the ever-evolving AI landscape, Scoble brings decades of insight and first-hand experiences that you won’t hear anywhere else.
Robert Scoble's perspective as a seasoned tech veteran offers a compelling look at the fast-paced world of artificial intelligence and the seismic shifts it’s creating across industries.
