• The AI Human Paradox - What You Need to Know About the Future of Technology and Ethics

  AI strategist and upcoming author Bruce Randall jumps behind the mic to explore how artificial intelligence is colliding with everyday life—no coding degree required. Bruce unpacks his journey from software sales to earning an MIT “no-code data-science” certificate, and reveals why he’s writing The AI Human Paradox to give non-tech folks a crystal-clear roadmap through the jargon jungle of LLMs, brain-computer interfaces, and autonomous systems. We dig into the art (and science) of great prompting, the power—and peril—of Neuralink-style implants, and why “trust but verify” is Bruce’s golden rule for hallucination-free insights.You’ll hear practical wins for small businesses—from AI-powered chat-bots that rescue bad restaurant reviews to HR tools that actually boost morale—and learn how global pharma giant Sanofi slashes drug-development time with full-stack AI. We examine the ethics of AI-generated college papers, the very real risk of runaway super-intelligence, and Bruce’s optimistic blueprint for keeping humanity in the driver’s seat as machines get smarter. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a curious creator, or just wondering what “BCI” even means, this episode arms you with the mindset and resources to thrive in an AI-accelerated world.You can connect to Bruce on LinkedIn.
