Description

The AI Report podcast is a weekly AI podcast for business leaders that looks at artificial intelligence through a human lens. Understanding AI means understanding the people behind it: their motivations, their values, and the choices that shape how AI shows up at work. Each episode, we talk with executives at companies like Adobe, Block, EY, PwC and Salesforce about why they're building and using AI the way they are. Leaders talk openly about how AI and AI agents are changing their jobs, their teams and the future of work, from moving pilots to scale to measuring the return on AI spend and earning trust along the way. AI isn't just code and data. It's people making decisions about the future we're building. No technical background needed. New episodes every Thursday. We're the team behind The AI Report, the AI newsletter read by more than 400,000 business professionals.
