The advance of human capabilities has been led by people who were able to imagine things that were not possible and then muster the willpower to build them. That requires a combination of seeing the world a bit differently and being willing to take risks and push the limits to create something new.

Eric Adolphe, CEO of Forward Edge-AI, Inc., is a technology-savvy executive with over thirty years of success building high-growth firms focused on mission impact, revenue, and margin attainment, primarily in the national security sector. But he isn’t interested in technology for technology’s own sake. Instead, he believes that it has the potential to generate enormous benefits for all of humanity.

In this episode, Eric joins co-hosts Scott Luton and Kevin L. Jackson to talk about his passion for innovation and willingness to go where no man has gone before:

- Eric’s opportunities to work first with NASA and now with the United States Space Force

- Why innovators must dedicate themselves to building responsible and more inclusive AI capabilities than we have today

- How AI is acting as an accelerant in manufacturing, making it possible to bring designs to market faster than ever before
