Brian Solis recently sat down with Andrew Keen to discuss his new book, Mindshift: Transform Leadership, Drive Innovation, and Reshape the Future.

The key question that Solis addresses in his book is, do we shape the future or does it shape us? The answer is we shape the future. 

After the interview Andrew submitted the file to Google's NotebookLM to create an AI generated podcast. It summarizes the conversation in a fun way!

Show Description

MINDSHIFT: Lessons from Silicon Valley on how to transform leadership and drive innovation. 

That’s the core question in Brian Solis’ new book, Mindshift which provides lessons for corporate executives in transforming leadership and driving innovation. Like so many other futurists, Solis’ work focuses on how we can become irreplaceable in the age of AI. Agency still lies with us, he acknowledges. But unless we use that agency to shape the future, Solis warns, then that future will eventually make all of us eminently replaceable.

Welcome to "AI with Shaily," where Shailendra Kumar, your enthusiastic host, takes you on a journey through the dynamic world of artificial intelligence! 🎙️ Today, Shaily brings you the latest and greatest updates in Generative AI, particularly focusing on Python, so buckle up for an informative ride! 🚀

Shaily starts off with some thrilling news for Python developers: Microsoft has just rolled out a significant update for Visual Studio Code! 🎉 This update is packed with fantastic features that are sure to make coding a breeze. One of the standout additions is the ability to generate docstring templates instantly using the Pylance extension. 📝 This means less time spent on documentation and more time coding! But wait, there’s more! The introduction of an experimental AI code action combines the power of Pylance with GitHub Copilot, acting as your very own AI assistant. Imagine transforming abstract classes into functional code with ease! Plus, the Native Python REPL now boasts a supercharged variables view, enhancing your debugging experience like never before. 🛠️

Shaily then shares a personal anecdote, reminiscing about the days when coding was a laborious task filled with manual documentation. He reflects on how tools like Pylance were once just a figment of imagination. 🌙 The advancements in coding convenience are truly a dream come true, allowing developers to shift their focus from mundane tasks to creative innovation. 💡

For those eager to dive deeper into Python, Shaily recommends an in-depth YouTube tutorial that covers everything from the basics to advanced concepts in generative AI. 📚 This tutorial is a goldmine of knowledge, featuring essential Python skills, machine learning with libraries like NumPy and Pandas, and even data visualization techniques using Matplotlib and Seaborn. 📊

Mark your calendars for an exciting event happening on November 7-8 in Kuala Lumpur! 🌍 There’s a course titled ‘Certified Machine Learning Expert Using Python x GEN AI’ that promises to elevate your AI skills through real-world applications. Plus, participants will earn a certification that showcases their expertise in the field. 🎓

As a bonus tip, Shaily advises aspiring AI enthusiasts to start small when exploring generative AI. It’s crucial to master the basics before tackling more complex models. 🕺 He likens this learning process to dancing; once you’ve got the foundational steps down, you can create your own unique choreography!

To wrap up the session, Shaily leaves us with an inspiring quote from Steve Jobs: "Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower." 💪 He encourages everyone to remember that coding is not just about writing lines of code; it's about leading the way in AI innovation.

If you want to stay updated with more engaging content, Shaily invites you to follow him on YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Medium. 📲 Don’t forget to subscribe and share your thoughts in the comments! He’s eager to hear which features of the new Visual Studio release excite you the most. Until next time, keep pushing the boundaries of innovation in AI! This is Shailendra Kumar, signing off. ✌️

Digital Health Talks: Cracking the Code: How Generative AI Can Solve the Rare Disease Puzzle

Welcome to another thrilling episode of "AI with Shaily," hosted by the insightful Shailendra Kumar! 🎙️ Today, Shaily takes us on an exciting journey through the landscape of Artificial Intelligence in 2024, highlighting both groundbreaking innovations and significant challenges that accompany them.

The episode kicks off with a focus on the rise of generative AI, showcasing powerful tools like OpenAI's GPT-4 and Google's newly rebranded Gemini. Shaily reflects on the evolution from GPT-3, which could generate text, to today's AI capable of producing not just text but also images and videos. This leap in technology is transforming the creative process, but it also raises important discussions around bias, accuracy, and ethical considerations. Shaily cleverly compares this to giving a child a paintbrush without guidance, resulting in both beautiful creations and occasional chaos. 🎨

Shaily shares a personal anecdote from his early AI exploration days, reminiscing about using a basic chatbot to help organize his thoughts. He emphasizes how AI tools have transitioned from mere support systems to pivotal elements that redefine our work and daily lives. Tools like ChatGPT have simplified complex tasks, making writing and coding more accessible than ever. 💻

However, with these advancements come new responsibilities. Shaily stresses the importance of addressing ethical and governance issues, such as bias and the impact on the job market. He draws a parallel to the internet's early days, where excitement was coupled with the need for careful navigation. The World Economic Forum’s AI Governance Alliance is highlighted as a key player in promoting ethical and inclusive AI practices, aiming to bring order to this rapidly evolving technological landscape. 🌍

As a bonus tip, Shaily advises listeners to always question the information they receive from AI tools, emphasizing the necessity of verification, even from the most advanced systems. 🔍

To wrap up the episode, Shaily leaves us with a thought-provoking quote: "Innovation is the unrelenting drive to break the status quo and develop anew where few have dared to go." He encourages everyone to stay informed and conscientious about the deployment of AI as it continues to evolve. 

Listeners are invited to connect with Shaily on various platforms like YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Medium for more insights. He also encourages audience engagement by asking for thoughts on balancing AI innovation with ethical considerations, expressing a genuine interest in hearing diverse perspectives. 💬

As the episode concludes, Shailendra Kumar signs off with a reminder to keep exploring the endless possibilities that AI has to offer. Until next time, stay curious and engaged! 🌟

[Verse]
Thunder drums they shake my chest
Feel the power can't be stressed
Rhythms pounding never rest
Hearts are thumping we're possessed

[Verse 2]
Electric beats they pierce the air
Every pulse we can't prepare
Gravity can't hold us down
Jump until the lightnings crown

[Chorus]
Feel the bass it starts to soar
Giant drums they beg for more
Lose control we're off the floor
Dance like chaos is the law

[Verse 3]
Synthesizers scream and wail
Beats like hammers never fail
Monsoon rhythm rising high
Dance until we touch the sky

[Bridge]
Neon lights they flash around
Every drop a seismic sound
Earthquake groove beneath our feet
Dubstep kingdom can't be beat

[Chorus]
Feel the bass it starts to soar
Giant drums they beg for more
Lose control we're off the floor
Dance like chaos is the law
