    When Quantum Computing Brings Breakthroughs...or Chaos (First Aired: November 13, 2024)

    Quantum computers harness the almost mystical properties of subatomic particles to solve problems that are beyond even the most powerful “classical” computers available today. Will these computers usher in a new generation of custom pharmaceuticals and sustainable materials—or will they be used to crack every password and create global chaos? BCG’s Antoine Gourévitch imagines the coming age of quantum computers and dives deep into ways they could supercharge the discovery of new materials. But the quantum age comes with huge risks as well; governments around the world are already racing to develop quantum-safe passwords that will keep our data secure.  Learn More:  Antoine Gourévitch: https://on.bcg.com/4hMrXaQ  BCG on Quantum Computing: https://on.bcg.com/3AGK415   GenAI on GenAI: https://link.chtbl.com/bcg-genai-on-genai?sid=IT  CEO Digest: https://link.chtbl.com/ceo-digest-bcg-show?sid=IT  CEO Moments of Truth: https://on.bcg.com/ITMoT  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

    BCG Presents: The CEO Radar

    While discussions of US tariff policies dominated Q2 earnings calls to an unprecedented degree, another equally important trend is bubbling just under the surface in C-suites and on trading floors: concern that the economic uncertainty caused by tariff turmoil may lead to a downturn. That’s the conclusion of the third edition of the CEO Radar—a tool to help CEOs determine which issues truly deserve their time and attention. It unpacks the leading topics discussed on more than 4,500 earnings calls worldwide in Q2 2025, enabling chief executives to compare their agendas to those of their peers, and to the market’s expectations. On this episode of the CEO Radar Podcast, Edward Adams of Bloomberg Media Studios is joined by BCG Global Chair Rich Lesser and Mai-Britt Poulsen, Global Leader of BCGs Consumer & Retail Practice, to discuss how CEOs can build their resilience.  Listen to CEO Radar: https://sponsored.bloomberg.com/immersive-story/bcg/the-ceo-radar-q3-2025  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

    Preparing for an Uncertain Future…in the Future (First Aired: November 27, 2024)

    By the year 2035, we will likely be able to utilize AI to crunch complex data sets and produce far more accurate predictions of the future, for everything from stock market fluctuations to consumer trends. Already, meteorologists are using AI to improve weather forecasting—for instance, by more accurately predicting when a hurricane will make landfall. But BCG’s Alan Iny says this does not mean that business leaders will be able to dispense with planning for multiple scenarios. Predictions will never be perfect—and everyone will have access to the same tools—so strategic planning will remain critical even as it evolves in new ways.  Learn More:  Alan Iny: https://on.bcg.com/4fCNDo5 Are Leaders as Prepared for Strategic Risks as They Think They Are?: https://on.bcg.com/3AXqw8J  BCG on Corporate Finance and Strategy: https://on.bcg.com/496c3Ek  CEO Moments of Truth: https://on.bcg.com/ITMoT  GenAI on GenAI: https://link.chtbl.com/bcg-genai-on-genai?sid=IT  CEO Digest: https://link.chtbl.com/ceo-digest-bcg-show?sid=IT  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

    Hang Up and Hang Out: AI Agents Give Us a Phone-Free Future

    Apps were supposed to make life easier to navigate, but they often create more complexity. Planning a trip can involve hundreds of digital touchpoints over several months. But new advances–especially the growth of AI agents–coupled with ambient and voice-recognition technology, could make apps obsolete. BCG’s Dutch MacDonald imagines a world where, for example, we could just have a conversation with our personal AI assistant about our dream vacation and it could do all the planning and booking for us.  Learn More:  Dutch:https://on.bcg.com/4k3Hy5s  How AI Agents Are Opening the Golden Era of Customer Experience: https://on.bcg.com/4ndwK7K  BCG’s Latest Thinking on AI: https://on.bcg.com/3ZMzmj0  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

    If AGI’s a No-Show, What Comes Next?

    The most enthusiastic AI evangelists say that in the not-too-distant future bots with artificial general intelligence (AGI) will match—or even exceed—the cognitive abilities of humans on pretty much any task. But what if we don’t reach that elusive goal? BCG’s Noah Broestl imagines how AI will nonetheless continue to evolve in amazing ways, yielding a proliferation of specialized models each with its own specific advantages. These models will be much more accurate, and they will feature advances in safety, transparency, and efficiency.  Learn More:  Noah Broestl: https://on.bcg.com/4mtes1N  BCG’s Latest Thinking on AI: https://on.bcg.com/4jnOLNz  You Won’t Get GenAI Right If You Get Human Oversight Wrong: https://on.bcg.com/45rTvyj  GenAI Will Fail.
