Data protection specialist and former UK Labour Party DPO James Robson argues that ethical data sharing is the foundation of trust and innovation, not a barrier to it. He reframes GDPR as an enabler ("brakes on a car to go faster"), contrasts Europe's human-rights approach with America's commercial one, and asks who gets to decide who we are as AI increasingly makes that call for us.
Francis Rodino — AI Growth Architect, founder of Lead Hero, and author of Leads Machine — argues that in an internet flooded with AI content, trust beats volume. The conversation covers why most companies have a systems problem rather than a lead-generation problem, how to understand what customers truly desire ("nobody just wants a solar panel"), the widening gap between quality and "AI slop," how to make marketing human again by doing the work, and why — for now — the brands and experts that win are the ones that feel most human.
Carl-Johan Rosenberg, creator of the concept of Assumptology, argues that the assumptions we never examine are the ones that cost us — in everyday conversations and billion-dollar decisions alike. The conversation covers what assumptions really are ("the building blocks of thought"), the two primary risks they create, why you can't simply trust a large language model's output (and should cross-check it like a journalist, even using different models to check each other), why children ask better questions because they carry fewer assumptions, and why making your assumptions explicit is a key advantage in the age of AI.
Ran Aroussi — 35+ year software veteran and creator of the open-source library yfinance — argues that the key to AI adoption is simplicity. The conversation covers which engineering principles never change, why established companies should mold AI around their organization (making it an invisible "ghost in the machine") rather than remold the org around new tools, why junior developers should be hired as future architects rather than coders, and his contrarian view that RAG is a temporary patch until AI learns to distill information like a human brain.
