    What's the future of hiring and skilling? / w/ Erran Berger, LinkedIn's VP for Product Engineering

    In this special episode of The Boss's Code, I ask a simple but urgent question: what does it take to thrive professionally when everything around you is changing? Erran Berger, VP of Product Engineering at LinkedIn, has spent over 15 years building the platform that holds the world's professional pulse. LinkedIn started as a place to park your résumé — today it's becoming something far more powerful: a navigator for your entire career in an AI-disrupted world. Erran joins me to break down how the platform is evolving, what AI means for recruiters, builders, and learners alike, and why the leaders and professionals who will win in this new world of work are the ones willing to jump headfirst into the unknown.

    How are enterprises really using AI? | w/ Snowflake's Head of AI Research, Dwarak Rajagopal |

    Artificial Intelligence is everywhere — but what is actually working inside enterprises, and what is still hype? In this season finale episode of The Boss’s Code, I speak with Dwarak Rajagopal, Head of AI Research at Snowflake, who has spent years building AI systems at the intersection of research and real-world deployment. This conversation goes beyond models and benchmarks to examine how AI is being operationalised inside large organisations — and what it takes to make AI reliable, trustworthy, and useful at scale. In this episode, we discuss: What enterprises are really doing with AI today — and where expectations still outpace reality Why open source remains critical to innovation, talent, and long-term AI leadership How Snowflake is addressing hallucinations, bias, and trust in enterprise AI systems The growing divide between corporatised, closed AI development in the U.S. and academic, open approaches emerging from China Where India stands in the global AI race — opportunities, risks, and what it must get right This is a grounded, strategic conversation about AI as infrastructure — not spectacle — and what leaders need to understand as AI becomes embedded in business, policy, and society. 🎧 Listen now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. #AI #EnterpriseAI #OpenSource #Snowflake #ArtificialIntelligence #TheBosssCode #Leadership #Technology #FutureOfWork #IndiaAI
