But don’t let that calm and understated exterior fool you. John is wicked smart, incredibly connected in the tech world, hugely accomplished and surrounded...

I am obsessed with AI. And judging from all that I read on the subject, I am not alone. Literally there isn’t a day that goes by where some article in a major business news site isn’t discussing how yet another industry is being impacted by AI.
