  • Is AI Causing Us to Lose Critical Knowledge? with Keith Schafer

    Is AI Causing Us to Lose Critical Knowledge? with Keith Schafer
    2026/07/27
    Is AI quietly erasing the hands-on knowledge that keeps our infrastructure running? Jonathan Green talks with Keith Schafer — part of multiple generations in critical power and engine infrastructure — about what happens when we over-trust AI, why "artificial intelligence" isn't truly intelligent, and how the expertise powering the coming wave of AI data centers is the very knowledge we're at risk of losing. Key Takeaways: • Over-relying on AI erodes hard-won institutional knowledge and hands-on troubleshooting instincts • "AI" isn't truly intelligent — blindly trusting it (like following GPS off the road) is dangerous in the physical world • The infrastructure powering AI data centers depends on expertise that's quietly disappearing • Safety and reliability come first — some systems simply have to run (engines at 20 below) • Capture multi-generational knowledge before it walks out the door Notable Quotes: "The first time I used GPS, it told me to drive off [the road]." — Keith Schafer "As cool as it is, it's not truly artificial intelligence." — Keith Schafer Connect with Keith Schafer: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/keith-w-schafer-19833a22 Enjoyed this?

  • The Logistics of Artificial Intelligence with Mohannad Gomaa

    The Logistics of Artificial Intelligence with Mohannad Gomaa
    2026/07/20
    We think of AI as living in the cloud — but it runs on physical chips, factories, and supply chains that break in the real world. Jonathan Green talks with supply-chain expert Mohannad Gomaa about the logistics of AI: why modern supply chains are dangerously brittle, how AI helps spot trends and de-risk sourcing, and why resilience — not just efficiency — is the strategy that matters now. Key Takeaways: • Modern supply chains are brittle — the tiniest disruption can cascade into shortages • AI helps you spot trends and decide where (and from whom) to source • Forecasting that stops at volume level leads to costly misallocation • Diversify your supplier portfolio; don't optimize purely for cost • Resilience, not just efficiency, is the supply-chain strategy for the AI era Notable Quotes: "Supply chain models are very brittle to the tiniest disruption." — Mohannad Gomaa "It's that resilience part — one of your supply chain strategies — that's what really matters." — Mohannad Gomaa Connect with Mohannad Gomaa: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mohannadhazemgomaa Website: https://mgostrategy.com/ Enjoyed this?

  • Is AI Making the Job Market Better or Worse? with Dante Crowther

    Is AI Making the Job Market Better or Worse? with Dante Crowther
    2026/07/13
    Is AI making the job market better or worse? Jonathan Green talks with executive job-search expert and Army veteran Dante Crowther about breaking through a market where hundreds apply for every role — why AI screening can filter out the best candidate, why human connection still wins, and how to bet on yourself when the algorithms are stacked against you. Key Takeaways: • The problem isn't too few jobs — it's the signal-to-noise of too many applicants per role • AI hiring filters can screen out the most qualified person because they read keywords, not people • The nonverbals and judgment that land jobs are exactly what AI can't replicate • Networking is the edge — most real opportunities come from human connection, not applications • Bet on yourself: your time and what you offer are more valuable than you think Notable Quotes: "Good luck insulting me — I'm a salesman, I'll sit down and talk with anyone." — Dante Crowther "If you believe what you have to offer is that valuable, you should bet on yourself." — Dante Crowther Connect with Dante Crowther: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dante-crowther Website: https://executivejobsearch.net/ Enjoyed this?

  • Changing the Face of Networking with Larry Kaufman

    Changing the Face of Networking with Larry Kaufman
    2026/07/06
    Is AI making us better networkers — or quietly killing the human skills that make networking work? Jonathan Green sits down with networking expert and author Larry Kaufman on using AI to deepen real relationships instead of replacing them: researching people before you meet them, remembering what they care about, and leading with generosity instead of a pitch. Key Takeaways: • AI is great for the prep — research, remembering details, follow-up — but over-relying on it erodes the social skills networking depends on • See people as more than a resource; lead by giving, not taking • Use AI to surface what someone actually cares about (their causes, their work) so you connect as a human • Networking matters more than ever in the AI era • Don't "show up and throw up" your pitch — authenticity wins every time Notable Quotes: "I like to learn about people so I can be more giving." — Larry Kaufman "Just offering to help — putting it out there that you have a network and you're happy to help — is a good thing to do." — Larry Kaufman Connect with Larry Kaufman: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larrykaufmanlinkedinspeaker Book — The NCG Factor: https://geni.us/UctTsX Website: https://www.jeffersonwells.com/ Enjoyed this?

  • Purpose-Driven Marketing with Edward Farley

    Purpose-Driven Marketing with Edward Farley
    2026/06/29
    Can AI build a brand — or just accelerate a broken one faster? Jonathan Green sits down with brand strategist Edward Farley (Newport LLC) on purpose-driven brand strategy in the age of AI: why your brand is far more than a logo, why AI is like NOS (it speeds you up in whatever direction you're already going — including off a cliff), and how to keep the human soul in your marketing while AI scales the rest. Key Takeaways: • AI accelerates everything — including weak branding. Fix the strategy before you optimize with AI • Brand isn't your logo; it's purpose, authenticity, and the problem you uniquely solve • Gen Z & Gen Alpha see straight through trend-chasing and hollow "social cause" marketing • Don't outsource all customer communication to AI — you lose the early warning signs and the brand's soul (and you're still legally on the hook for what it says) • The sweet spot: AI scales human, humans give it soul — keep a person making the decisions Notable Quotes: "AI is kind of like NOS — if you're going in the wrong direction and you push that button, you're in the wrong direction faster." — Edward Farley "AI scales human; humans give it soul. You don't want to lose the soul of anything." — Edward Farley Connect with Edward Farley: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edward-farleyjr Website: https://newportllc.com Enjoyed this?

  • Adapting AI Without Upsetting Your Team with Andrés Tapia

    Adapting AI Without Upsetting Your Team with Andrés Tapia
    2026/06/22

    What happens to your team when AI shows up? Jonathan Green sits down with Andrés Tapia — leadership strategist, author, and longtime advisor to Fortune 500s — to unpack how leaders can bring AI into a company without triggering fear, sabotage, or burnout. They dig into why AI displaces tasks, not people, and the uniquely human strengths that get more valuable as the machines get smarter.

    Key Takeaways:

    • AI displaces tasks, not people — don't tie your identity to what you do
    • The three human edges AI can't replicate: empathy, critical thinking, and wisdom
    • Treat AI as a new team member with strengths and limits — not a replacement
    • The real skill shift: from knowing the answers to knowing which questions to ask
    • Why people still crave live, in-person experiences — and what that means for work

    Notable Quotes:
    "It's going to displace certain things, but not us — the human beings." — Andrés Tapia
    "The value for humans isn't knowing the answers… it's knowing what questions to ask." — Andrés Tapia

  • Is AI as Safe As We Think it Is?

    Is AI as Safe As We Think it Is?
    2026/02/02

    In this episode, Jonathan sits down with clinical psychologist and AI ethics expert Dr. Sonja Batten to explore a critical question: Is AI as safe as we think it is—especially when it comes to our mental health, our kids, and vulnerable populations like veterans?

    Dr. Batten brings decades of experience in mental health, military/veteran care, and systems-level policy to unpack how AI is already interacting with loneliness, depression, social skills, and even national security. Together, she and Jonathan examine where AI can genuinely help—and where it can quietly make things much worse.

    Key Topics Covered:

    • AI “Practice Girlfriends” & Parasocial Relationships
    • Pseudo-Emotion vs. Real Emotion in AI
    • Depression, Rumination, and AI as an Accelerant
    • Kids, Screens, and Personality Shifts
    • Awkward Questions & Suicide Risk
    • Veterans, Targeted Manipulation & National Security
    • Building Real-World Social Skills in an AI World
    • The Profit Motive Behind AI & Big Platforms
    • A Practical Safety Strategy: Don’t Talk to Just One AI
    • A Better Future: Human-in-the-Loop Mental Health AI
    • Bias, Data, and Why “Objective” AI Can Still Harm People
    • What’s Safe to Use Today—and What Isn’t

    Notable Quotes:

    • “The problem isn’t that AI sounds human—it’s that it acts like it’s human, without any judgment about whether what it’s saying is actually helpful.” – Dr. Sonja Batten
    • “Rumination is like how a cow digests grass—except you’re doing it with your depressive thoughts. AI can actually accelerate that cycle.” – Dr. Sonja Batten
    • “The earlier I act in a depressive cycle, the easier it is to break it. But AI gives you the illusion of a conversation while keeping you stuck in place.” – Jonathan Green
    • “Ask the awkward question. If you’re not sure whether someone’s joking or asking for help, just ask. The worst thing that happens is they tell you you’re wrong—and now they know you care.” – Dr. Sonja Batten
    • “I don’t think there’s any AI tool yet that I’d trust as a standalone resource for my own daughter if she were depressed.” – Dr. Sonja Batten
    • “We can’t afford to get it wrong in mental health. The stakes are too high.” – Dr. Sonja Batten

    Key Resource Mentioned:

    • 988 – Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (U.S.)
      If you or someone you know is struggling, you can call or text 988 in the United States for immediate support and connection to local resources. This is a 24/7 crisis line.

    If you’re interested in how AI intersects with mental health, parenting, veterans’ issues, and public safety—and you want a grounded, clinically informed view of both the risks and the potential—this episode is essential listening.

  • What's Happening with AI Outside of Silicon Valley with Aaditi Tamhankar

    What's Happening with AI Outside of Silicon Valley with Aaditi Tamhankar
    2026/01/12

    Welcome to the Artificial Intelligence Podcast with Jonathan Green! In this episode, we look beyond Silicon Valley to explore how AI is transforming food, health, and the future of what we eat with our special guest, Aaditi Tamhankar—a venture capitalist deeply focused on the future of food, health tech, and biology-driven innovation.

    Aaditi explains why some of the most important breakthroughs in AI are happening outside traditional tech hubs—in labs, farms, kitchens, and clinics. She walks us through how AI is being used to:

    • Design food products faster and smarter
    • Personalize nutrition at the individual level
    • Extend healthy lifespan by shifting focus from treatment to prevention
    • Democratize health knowledge for everyday people, not just elites

    We also dive into the hidden physical cost of AI—its demand for electricity, water, and infrastructure—and how that connects to larger shifts like the resurgence of nuclear power.

    From barcode-scanning food apps to microbiome analysis, smart toilets, and AI-powered health screenings via your smartphone camera, Aaditi paints a picture of a world where health data becomes more objective, accessible, and actionable for everyone—especially in developing countries where smartphones are far more common than laptops.

    Notable Quotes:

    • “Over the next 20 minutes I’m gonna show you why some of the most important breakthroughs in AI are happening outside of Silicon Valley.” – Aaditi Tamhankar
    • “We live in this world with conflicting information, disinformation, and information from dubious sources… consumers are very confused right now.” – Aaditi Tamhankar
    • “What might change your life? Understanding the microbiome.” – Aaditi Tamhankar
    • “Right now we’re in this time where it’s big food against big pharma. You have two Goliaths battling it out.” – Aaditi Tamhankar
    • “One in eight Americans has already been on a GLP‑1. These drugs have only really been used for weight loss for a couple of years—that’s insane.” – Aaditi Tamhankar
    • “We think AI is this digital thing that has no impact on the world, but it uses massive amounts of power, electricity, space, and water.” – Jonathan Green
    • “If you don’t eat a lot of sweet stuff, your definition of sweet really shifts. A strawberry can become a 10 out of 10 sweet.” – Jonathan Green

    • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaditi-tamhankar/
    • TikTok: Nine to Thrive
    • Email: aaditi@bluesteinventures.com

    Aaditi shares where she’s investing in the future of food and health, and invites founders and innovators in the space to reach out, share what they’re building, and explore how AI can unlock the next generation of food and health breakthroughs.

    If you’re curious about AI, nutrition, longevity, and the real-world impact of emerging tech on everyday lives, you won’t want to miss this episode.
