In this episode of How I AI, I sit down with Chairman Elijah John Bowdre, a civic leader and Executive Director of the Miami-Dade Digital Commission, who has spent more than a decade at the intersection of blockchain, public policy, and financial innovation.
As Chairman of the Miami-Dade Cryptocurrency Task Force, Bowdre has advised government leaders on the responsible adoption of emerging technologies helping shape frameworks for blockchain integration, digital identity, and crypto payments across public systems. From his early ventures in China’s tech ecosystem to authoring Florida’s state bill for virtual assets, his work bridges global experience and local impact.
I share how AI, digital wallets, and blockchain are transforming civic infrastructure, why decentralized systems are key to rebuilding public trust, and what it takes to future-proof a city in the era of intelligent machines.
🔥 Topics We Cover:
• How blockchain provides a trust layer for AI and financial automation
• The convergence of cryptocurrency, identity, and civic accountability
• The evolution of Miami as a global hub for digital innovation
Tools and Concepts Mentioned:
AI Agents, Blockchain, Bitcoin, Digital Wallets, Smart Contracts, Coinbase, Zero-Knowledge Proof Systems, Quantum Computing, Cybernetics
