Looking back at our "Al-Powered Fintech: A Founder's Journey" panel with Pedro Franceschi - Co-Founder & CEO of Brex and Anu Hariharan - Founder of avra. Some of the topics they talked about included what makes a good leader, where Pedro shared that in his opinion a good leader should be able to "act at all levels" and emphasized the importance of execution over pure strategy. They concluded the panel by discussing how Al will break many go-to-market frameworks.

Throwback to the second day of the BSV 2024 conference with our keynote speaker, @Tom Siebel, Founder & CEO of C3 AI. In his panel on 'How CEOs should think about AI,' Mr. Siebel shared profound insights into the transformative impact of AI on businesses today. He emphasized the shift from an era where device costs were paramount to a future where AI applications and infrastructure will dominate expenditures. According to Mr. Siebel, adopting AI isn't just beneficial—it's imperative: "There are companies that will adopt AI, and there are those that will not. Those that do not will be acquired by those that do." Watch the full panel here: https://lnkd.in/g7HNwA2E #BSV2024 #AI #FutureofBusiness
