Change is often met with resistance, but Neil Goodrich, Chief Innovation Officer at Envista Forensics, challenges us to rethink our approach to innovation in this episode of Talking AI.

Together with host Matt Paige, Neil explores where new AI tools can help to lead innovation and how small incremental changes can drive larger transformative projects. We look at how AI can boost efficiency at different stages of an innovation process, from creating faster prototypes to democratizing access to data insights across teams.

Matt and Neil swap ideas on how AI could impact things like customer feedback, everyday work, job displacement, and education (for better or worse). A key takeaway point from this episode is the importance of adaptability – a skill that we will all need as tech like AI continues to evolve rapidly.
