In this episode, Brick Thompson and Ed Daniels discuss how AI should be used in the work environment. Brick explains the steps he is taking to encourage his employees to use AI in a safe and secure manner. Working individually and together, his team is learning how to produce results faster and better. Brick explains some specific use cases like in sales where they use AI more intensively. A specific AI tool, gong.io, helps coach salespeople, track, and measure steps in the sales process. Brick’s advice for fellow CEOs about how to promote adoption of AI is, make sure employees know about safe data use, then “Just make it available!”Here are links to some of the products and companies mentioned:https://www.gong.io/ https://otter.ai/ https://www.hubspot.com/https://www.bluemargin.com/The name of this podcast, Beyond Electric Sheep, is a reference to the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by Philip K. Dick. That novel is the source for the movies Blade Runner (1982) and Blade Runner 2049 (2017). It explores the themes of artificial intelligence, empathy, and reality in a dystopian future where humans and androids coexist. The novel raises the question of whether androids can dream or feel anything at all, and whether they are different from humans in any meaningful way. In our Beyond Electric Sheep podcast we go beyond the novel and the movies and discuss the broader implications and applications of artificial intelligence in our personal lives and in our businesses. We explore the pragmatic as well as the ethical and philosophical issues that arise from creating and interacting with intelligent machines.Beyond Electric Sheep is also available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYg2J0jET_BPCKSnsxz8mleEmYogYJZhn
