The economy is growing. Your margins probably aren't. In this episode, we break down why most companies are stuck in AI pilot purgatory and what a practical $50k, six-week deployment playbook actually looks like.

We cover: Goldman Sachs and Fidelity's 2026 outlook, why one digital twin on one factory line cut $380k in annual waste, what MIT's meta-cognition research says about training 5 people instead of 500, where over half of global VC capital is going, and why the Fed's expected 50-basis-point rate cut matters for your portfolio, not just the headlines.

From defense robotics to boardroom AI strategy, one rule holds: technology that doesn't fix a real problem for a real person is expensive furniture.

Q2 2026 rewards people who ship.
