Replacement & Redundancy: Rethinking Tech Enabled Business - This Week in Tech | Ep.059

Tech for Finance

Join us as we explore the ever-evolving intersection of technology and business models with our insightful guest, Dan Lawrence from Bots for that. This week, we're peering into the future with the Apple Vision Pro, an innovative AR headset that could revolutionize the way we work in finance. Microsoft's leap to ensure Office compatibility with this tech is just the tip of the iceberg. But it's not all business; we also reflect on the challenge and necessity of a tech detox, sharing personal anecdotes about the struggle to unplug in a world where digital is king. Listen in as we discuss the intriguing possibilities of AI-enabled search tools like Perplexity and Arc Search, which are set to transform how we browse the web. Imagine navigating spreadsheets with a mere glance or finding the most relevant information without wading through pages of search results. These advancements could spell a significant shift for advertising revenue models and the visibility of content online. As AI becomes increasingly integral to our lives, we question what this means for job roles and the balance between automation and human touch. Hear about the potential of AI to not just replace but augment human tasks in sales and beyond. We dive into how these technologies are becoming more personalized, capable of small talk, and learning from each interaction. We'll discuss how this impacts small and medium-sized businesses and the strategic advantages it can offer. Wrapping up, we tackle the concept of fractional learning and the benefits of embracing challenges, both professionally and personally. So, gear up for an episode packed with forward-thinking insights and lively banter with myself, Adam Shilton, and Dan Lawrence. -------SHOW NOTES------ Subscribe to the 'Tech for Finance' podcast - https://pod.link/1628188164 Subscribe to the 'Beanies in a Pod' Podcast - https://beaniesinapod.buzzsprout.com/ -------CHAPTERS------ (00:00) Apple Vision Pro (12:54) AI-Enabled Search and Job Replacement (26:07) AI in Sales and Business Augmentation (32:59) Future of AI and Job Roles (46:27) Fractional Learning (51:03) The Importance of Challenging Yourself Subscribe to the Newsletter at -
