Simon Hudson shares his fascinating journey from medical device inventor to tech entrepreneur, exploring how information architecture transformed his approach to SharePoint, Teams, and AI ethics.

TAKEAWAYS
• Started his career in physics and medical devices, developing two patents for chronic wound dressings
• Founded Cloud2 and developed Hadron, possibly the first SharePoint-based "intranet in a box" solution
• Recognized that 90% of organizational information needs are the same across companies
• Initially skeptical about Teams but had a "road to Damascus moment" when realizing its potential for structuring collaboration
• Companies that adopted his Teams approach transitioned seamlessly during the pandemic
• Believes AI won't eliminate jobs overall but will disadvantage those who don't learn to use it
• Working on how to build ethics directly into AI rather than just creating guardrails around it
• Concerned about AI agents making autonomous decisions without proper moral frameworks
• Sees data quality as a critical challenge for effective AI implementation in organizations
• Envisions personal AI "doppelgangers" that can handle routine tasks while embodying our ethical frameworks
