I think the sooner we just accept it's going to be messy and we don't have all the answers and we're not asking the hard enough questions, then we can move into the phase where we actually do that and then it's more addressable. Pretending like this is just going to go perfect and AI is only good and amazing doesn't do anybody anything. Welcome to The Artificial Intelligence Show, the podcast that helps your business grow smarter by making AI approachable and actionable. My name is Paul Roetzer. I'm the founder and CEO of SmarterX and Marketing AI Institute and I'm your host. Each week I'm joined by my co-host and SmarterX Chief Content Officer Mike Kaput. As we break down all the AI news that matters and give you insights and perspectives that you can use to advance your company and your career. Join us as we accelerate AI literacy for all.
Welcome to Episode 235 of The Artificial Intelligence Show. I am your host, Paul Roetzer, along with my co-host Mike Kaput. We are recording on the final day of August, August 31st, about 8:45 AM.
You'll be listening to this. It will be September.
August has been an interesting month, Mike. I mean, lots happening based on the stuff we're going to talk about today. We may get a year's worth of progress in the next 30 days. So we'll sort of set the stage for what could be coming, with some updates on the hugging face story, which is getting crazier by the week. Bill Gates jumping into the fold with his thoughts on, I guess, his changing thoughts on AI's impact on jobs and the economy.
And then Nvidia keeps chugging along. So those are going to be our first three main topics, but there's a lot to get into. So this week's episode is brought to you by Maicon, the AI Conference for Marketing and Business Leaders. That is happening October 13 to 15 in our hometown of Cleveland, Ohio.

We will be running the same survey we ran last week. We're trying to run these for slightly extended research period because we're kind of expanding the audience to which we promote these. So we're trying to get hundreds of responses for each one. So this week, we're still asking about how your hiring is changing for entry-level roles specifically, based on what AI is enabling, based on some of the news we've had in the past couple of weeks around that. So we'll share those results next week, but we are on pace to have a healthy set of responses.
