The DX Today Podcast: Real Insights About AI and Digital Transformation


Tired of AI hype and transformation snake oil? This isn't another sales pitch disguised as expertise. Join a 30+ year tech veteran and Chief AI Officer who's built $1.2 billion in real solutions—and has the battle scars to prove it.


No vendor agenda. No sponsored content. Just unfiltered insights about what actually works in AI and digital transformation, what spectacularly fails, and why most "expert" advice misses the mark.


If you're looking for honest perspectives from someone who's been in the trenches since before "digital transformation" was a buzzword, you've found your show. Real problems, real solutions, real talk.


For executives, practitioners, and anyone who wants the truth about technology without the sales pitch.

Send us a text The artificial intelligence industry is at a pivotal inflection point, transitioning from the brute-force "Scaling Era" of the 2020s to a new "Reasoning Era." The limitations of scaling static transformer architectures—prohibitive compute costs, brittleness in novel situations, and the "sensorimotor gap"—have necessitated a new paradigm. Groundbreaking research from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) in January 2026 provides this new blueprint, centered on I...
Send us a text In this episode of DX Today, we explore a landmark breakthrough from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology that is redefining the architecture of machine intelligence as of January 2026. Researchers have unveiled a mechanism known as internal mumbling, where AI models utilize a dedicated working memory to talk to themselves before executing tasks. This shift from linear processing to self-directed dialogue allows models to error-check logic and adapt to new environmen...

Send us a text In this episode of DX Today, we examine the evolution of the enterprise AI landscape as it shifts from the initial discovery phase into a period of intense fiscal discipline. As we enter 2026, CIOs are grappling with the fear of missing ROI rather than the fear of missing out, with global cloud bills rising by double digits and value realization remaining elusive for most. We break down the challenges of scaling AI programs beyond experimentation, the risks associated with the ...
