    818: In Case You Missed It in August 2024
    Sep 13 2024
    Experts from AI and data science discuss the impact and benefits of decentralization, the importance of structuring AI systems in business, and why knowing the basics will always matter for data engineers. Listen to Shingai Manjengwa (episode 809), Daniel Hulme (episode 807), Jerry Yurchisin (episode 813) and Nick Elprin (episode 811) explore a future world of work that rewards continuing learners, sets tasks for the people best suited to complete them rather than those whose job titles reflect the spec, and applies a fleet of ‘AI agents’ to solve complex business tasks.
