🔍 In this episode, we cover:
- Why most AI projects fail (and waste money)
- The difference between AI as tech vs AI as change management
- How small & mid-sized businesses are actually using AI today
- Why employees resist AI (and how to fix it)
🧠 Key Insight:
AI success isn’t about tools — it’s about changing behavior, workflows, and mindset.

What if we could build robots and AI that learn like the human brain, without burning through nuclear-plant levels of energy?
In this episode of Explainable AI, hosts Paul Anthony Claxton and Rohan Hall sit down with legendary roboticist and deep-tech entrepreneur Bruno Maisonnier (founder of Aldebaran Robotics creators of the NAO and Pepper robots, and AnotherBrain).
They explore the future of humanoid robots, “organic AI,” and what real intelligence looks like beyond today’s deep learning and LLMs.

In this episode of Explainable AI, hosts Paul Anthony Claxton and Rohan Hall sit down with entrepreneur, investor and former AI researcher Rafe Furst for a deep exploration of how artificial intelligence is transforming the world of venture capital.
Rafe shares insights from his early days in AI research, his Silicon Valley startup successes and his experience as a professional poker player. Together they unpack why the traditional VC model is faltering, how AI can reduce risk and improve decision making, and why the next wave of investing will look more like Moneyball than the old Silicon Valley playbook.
