Episode Summary

Andrew Amann joins to share practical frameworks for AI integration, stories from projects with FanDuel, and bold predictions about the future of intelligent agents and emotional computing.

Key Takeaways

• AI adoption is 80% human, 20% tech – start with mindset, not software.
• Frameworks must focus on solving business bottlenecks.
• Custom agents like ChuckGPT need months of brand-safe training.
• AI augments employees; it doesn't replace them.
• Emotional computing is the next AI frontier.
• Apple is lagging in AI innovation due to lack of software integration.
• Elon Musk is playing the long game in hardware, software, and policy.
• For college students: focus on operations, management, and learning by doing.
• Best tools: Copilot (Microsoft), Gemini (Google), not ChatGPT for enterprise work.

AI Integration Framework

1. Be curious: understand the business end-to-end.
2. Find bottlenecks: target repetitive or error-prone tasks.
3. Solve with traditional tech or build AI agents as needed.
4. Use a human-agent-human workflow for quality control.
5. Measure and orchestrate agents like a general commands an army.
