    Never Fight a Megatrend: Cisco’s Jeetu Patel

    Cisco is well known for its data, networking, security, and collaboration products. On today’s episode, Cisco’s president and chief product officer, Jeetu Patel, joins Sam for a discussion about artificial intelligence, a “megatrend” Jeetu sees as perhaps more significant than the development of the internet or the automobile because of its ability to build on past technological advances. Jeetu and Sam discuss how to manage AI and how to staff for it — Jeetu argues that replacing less experienced or younger workers with technology deprives organizations of key perspectives and new ideas, and instead advocates for developing reverse-mentoring programs inside organizations. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio: Jeetu Patel, Cisco’s president and chief product officer, combines product design and development expertise, operational rigor, and market understanding to create high-growth businesses. He is tasked with building world-class products to solve customers’ problems, and connect and protect every aspect of their organization in the AI era. Previously a general manager at Cisco, he led the strategy and development of its Security and Collaboration businesses. Before Cisco, Patel was the chief product officer and chief strategy officer at cloud content management company Box. He’s also held roles at EMC, including chief executive of its Syncplicity business unit, CMO for the Information Intelligence Group, and chief strategy officer. He currently serves on the board of JLL, a commercial real estate services company.

    Protection, Provenance, and Prompts: YouTube’s Angela Nakalembe

    A chemical engineer by training, Angela Nakalembe worked in the sciences and management consulting before landing at YouTube as the company’s engineering program manager for trust and safety. At YouTube, Angela explains, AI has become a first line of defense against harmful content. The technology not only accelerates content moderation tasks but makes the process more humane, by filtering out problematic content before it reaches a human reviewer. To combat the proliferation of AI-generated content that may be hard to discern from assets created by humans, YouTube, its parent company Google, and others have joined the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity Alliance to establish standards for the origin of content they observe. Also on today’s episode, Angela shares some personal experiences using large language models (LLMs) and Google’s own AI tools to illustrate how she sees individuals using AI in the future. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio Angela Nakalembe is an operations leader, internet safety expert, and advocate for responsible AI development. As an engineering program manager at YouTube, she leads strategic initiatives focused on protecting billions of users through innovative safety features and risk mitigation strategies, work that has earned multiple Google product excellence awards. Nakalembe developed her strategic expertise as a management consultant, when she supported multimillion-dollar technology migrations for Fortune 50 companies. She currently provides mentoring through TechWomen, a U.S. Department of State initiative creating the next generation of women technology leaders worldwide, and she teaches yoga.

    Challenging the Average With Open-Source AI: Hugging Face’s Thomas Wolf

    Thomas Wolf is the cofounder and chief science officer of open-source AI platform Hugging Face, which provides access to thousands of pretrained AI models that can be downloaded and run locally. With over 10 million users, getting started on the site can be a daunting task. Thomas explains how the company aims to improve its accessibility through documentation on the company blog as well as community feedback, similar to social media likes and upvoting. Thomas and Sam discuss the benefits and trade-offs of both open-source and closed-source AI models, as well as the evolution of microchips and the future of hardware and software development — as well as the hopes Thomas has for the future of coding with AI, starting with his children’s generation. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio: Thomas Wolf is cofounder and chief science officer of Hugging Face, a collaborative AI platform. Wolf likes creating open-source software (OSS) that makes complex research, models, and data sets widely accessible. He can also be found pushing for open science in research in AI and machine learning, to try lowering the gap between academia and industrial labs through projects like the BigScience Workshop. He also writes and produces education content on AI, machine language, and natural language processing, including the reference book Natural Language Processing with Transformers, The Ultra-Scale Playbook, his blog, and videos.

    Upcycling and Upskilling With AI: Goodwill's Steve Preston

    Many of us know Goodwill Industries International as a retailer that accepts and resells donated goods. What the average consumer may not know is that the nonprofit takes in over 5 billion pounds of goods each year — and not all of it can be resold. For those unwanted or unviable items, the organization can either look into recycling or upcycling, and with the help of AI, it’s able to efficiently make that determination while also improving its process for sorting and allocating sellable goods for different retail channels. Additionally, Goodwill helps its workforce with career-development skills. Much of this training has been enhanced with AI. Tune in to this episode to hear directly from Goodwill CEO Steve Preston about how the organization is using technology to fulfill a mission that extends beyond the retail store. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio: As president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International, Steven C. Preston leads a network of 153 local Goodwill organizations with a combined revenue of $8.2 billion. In addition to being a secondhand retail leader, Goodwill is a leading nonprofit provider of workforce training and development in North America. Positioning the organization at the forefront of workforce development has been a top focus for Preston since he joined Goodwill in 2019. He has also forged partnerships with organizations focused on sustainable practices in the secondhand retail marketplace and developed mission-focused marketing efforts to elevate the Goodwill brand. Previously, Preston served in numerous operational and financial leadership positions in both the public and private sectors. After heading the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Small Business Administration, he led successful turnarounds as the CEO of Oakleaf Global Holdings and Livingston International. He also served as the CFO of Waste Management and ServiceMaster.
