The ADOTAT Show

Dan Rosenberg of Octane11 took a swing at the ethical minefield that is AI on The ADOTAT Show, and let’s just say, he’s not holding his breath for a clean resolution anytime soon. Asked about the biggest ethical disaster waiting to happen in AI, he pointed to the usual suspects—data privacy, medical records, and personal information—things regulators are trying (and often failing) to get a grip on. But then he cut to the real problem: AI supercharging misinformation, especially in politics. He basically said, “Look, we already saw it in the last election cycle, and it’s only getting worse.” His big concern? AI-fueled gaslighting, where misinformation floods the zone so aggressively that reality gets shoved out of the conversation entirely. And in marketing? Good luck keeping up with truth-in-advertising laws when screens multiply like rabbits and AI-generated content floods every corner of the internet. Then came the kicker: AI might actually be the solution to the mess it’s creating. “We’re going to need some controls, some accountability… maybe AI can help with that.” That’s right—he’s suggesting the same tech that’s causing the chaos might be the thing to clean it up. Classic AI paradox: the arsonist moonlighting as the firefighter.

Carl Fremont of Quigley-Simpson, dropping some real wisdom on The ADOTAT Show, basically laid down the golden rule of career karma: Help others, because one day, you’ll need help too. Not exactly a groundbreaking revelation, but hey, it’s a truth most people conveniently ignore until they’re the ones looking for a lifeline. His take? He’s not just in it for the feel-good points—he actually enjoys mentoring, guiding, and making sure people hit their goals. Wild concept, right? A leader who actually cares instead of just spouting off LinkedIn platitudes. If only more execs got the memo. ALSO: Big thank you to Eric J. Troutman and Troutman Amin LLP. Troutman Amin didn’t just believe in The ADOTAT Show before it was cool—they put their money where their mouth is two years ago when this was just an idea, a mic, and a whole lot of chutzpah. Fast forward to today: 30,000+ YouTube listeners, 32,000 newsletter readers, and hundreds of thousands following us across social media. We’ve become one of the biggest (if not the biggest) channels in the industry, and it wouldn’t have happened without their early support.

Lizzie Chapman of NextRoll just handed a wake-up call to every exec still clinging to their dog-eared growth-at-all-costs playbook like it’s a sacred text. Newsflash: that era is dead, and if you’re still running your company like it’s 2015, you’re about to get lapped. On The ADOTAT Show, Chapman didn’t sugarcoat it—leaders need to stop pretending that what worked a decade ago still makes sense in a world where work-from-home is the norm, Gen Z isn’t chasing the same status markers, and employees actually expect to be listened to. Radical, right? Her advice: shut up and listen. Younger employees have a fundamentally different view of money, work, and life goals, and ignoring them isn’t just tone-deaf—it’s bad business. Not every suggestion will be a winner, but if you’re still running an office like some kind of feudal kingdom where only the top brass make the calls, don’t be shocked when talent walks out the door. The workplace has changed. The economy has changed. Adapt or enjoy irrelevance.

From the value of privacy, to navigating AI hype, to the secrets for running a high-performing team, our VP of Tech Partnerships, Lizzie Chapman, is telling it like it is. Listen in as she sits down with Pesach Lattin ?? adotat on the latest episode of his ADOTAT podcast. https://lnkd.in/g323Eeai #adtech #digitaladvertising #aiinmarketing #leadership #dataprivacy
