THE EPISODE: Who should be making moves in ai and web3 technologies in Q4 of 2023? A mentor to Ashley and early supporter of the show, Jay Rosenzweig is a returning guest. While he recalls accurately predicting that 90%+ of NFT projects would eventually see major value declines, he still believes the technologies and their underlying benefits will be around for a long time. In this chat, Jay unpacks how organizations should think about emerging tech in an uncertain economy, but fast-paced innovation landscape. He shares trends he sees from companies and notes opportunities for growth. He outlines how companies should think about recruiting for important roles, and how employees can position themselves for success - especially if they have a futuristic mindset. Jay’s annual “Rosenzweig Report” on equality shows there’ve been important advancements for women in executive leadership positions over the last year, though the numbers may still surprise you.
