  • S1 EP8 - AI Anchored in Mediocrity
    Dec 10 2025

    In this episode, we look at the potential issue that AI is quickly approaching. It's not necessarily an AI bubble. It's more like an evolutionary stall.

    With all the focus of energy, $ and time on Transactional AI solutions, we are not advancing Collaborative AI at all.

    This has a broad impact, potentially delaying advancements in Collaborative AI for decades as well as any chance of sensibly managing the approach to Artificial Super Intelligence at all.

    We ask the question:

    "Are we anchoring AI in mediocrity?"

  • S1 EP6 - Human & AI Collaboration Around The Next Corner
    Nov 26 2025

    In this episode, we look around the corner at true Human & AI Collaboration aka Collaborative AI, and ask the question:

    "How do we move closer to achieving Collaborative AI?"

    I introduce a 3-part reframing that is needed in order to adjust our vision so we can make it around the corner and not just adopt the next wave of AI, but adapt to is successfully.

    As I discuss in the episode, this is a pretty meaty topic, so I'll be following up with a lot more detail in articles and posts.

    No red carpet at the barn door of the Digital Cowboy Studio for this premier episode.
