    Your Sleep Is Aging Your Arteries

    What is your sleep really telling you about your long-term health? In this episode, Peggy Smedley sits down with Dr. Pierre Escourrou, Senior Medical Advisor at Withings and practicing cardiologist, to unpack groundbreaking research linking nighttime breathing patterns to arterial aging — and what that means for your cardiovascular health. They explore: How sleep apnea and snoring accelerate arterial stiffness Why a single night of sleep data leads to 20% misdiagnosis rates — and how continuous monitoring changes that The power of connected device ecosystems (IoT) over standalone wearables How AI + IoT data is shifting medicine from treatment to prevention What conditions — including hypertension, heart failure, COPD, and menopause — may be detectable years earlier using devices like the Withings Sleep Analyzer and smart scale The regulatory and insurance hurdles still standing in the way Whether you're a health tech enthusiast, a clinician, or someone who just wants to understand their sleep data better, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss.

    AI Won't Kill Music — But It Demands Guardrails

    Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, joins the Peggy Smedley Show at Think 2026 to share his candid take on AI and the future of music. From how producers are already using AI as a creative collaborator in the studio, to the 75,000 AI-generated songs hitting streaming platforms every day — Harvey breaks down why AI is a powerful tool, not a replacement for human creativity, and why legislation, transparency, and proper crediting are non-negotiable. Topics covered: How artists are using AI iteratively in the studio The disruption AI is bringing to streaming and distribution Why younger creators see no limits — and what that means for the industry Who should set the boundaries for AI in music Will we ever have a truly "soulful" AI?

    Reshaping Railroad with AI

    Freight rail moves 40% of long-distance goods in the U.S., but the industry's biggest challenge isn't infrastructure, it's intelligence. In this episode of The Peggy Smedley Show, host Peggy Smedley sits down with V. Krishnan, industry advisor for Microsoft manufacturing & mobility, to explore how AI agents and realtime decision tools are reshaping the future of rail. They discuss: Why railroads are drowning in data but struggling to act on it How CSX used AI to transform customer experience The Rumo case study: cutting lookup times from 4 minutes to 3 seconds Fuel optimization and how AI can cut costs 3–7% without new infrastructure Weather analytics, workforce challenges, and the retiring knowledge crisis Why the next 10% of performance won't come from more track — it'll come from smarter decisions Whether you're in logistics, supply chain, or enterprise tech, this conversation is a must-listen. https://aka.ms/RumorailAI https://aka.ms/CSXrailAI

    Model Context Protocol 101

    What does it take to make AI reliable enough to design a bridge? Peggy Smedley sits down with Francois Valois, senior vice president of Bentley Open Applications at Bentley Systems, to unpack the MCP (model context protocol — an open, agnostic standard that connects AI agents to deterministic engineering tools like STAAD and MicroStation ensuring trust, validation, and accountability in engineering workflows. They explore why generative AI alone needs to be more trustworthy for infrastructure design, how MCP bridges the gap between non-deterministic LLMs (large language models) and precise calculation engines, and what Bentley's open-source strategy means for the future of connected-infrastructure data. Topics covered: What MCP is and why Anthropic invented it Why "90% accurate" isn't acceptable in engineering How STAAD and MicroStation are now AI-accessible via MCP The role of structured data (and dark data) in AI workflows How to start experimenting with AI agents in your firm The future of the engineer in an AI-augmented world infrastructure.ai | connectedworld.com | peggysmedleyshow.com
