Inteligencia por Inteligencia with Eugenio Salas
AI can give a student an answer in seconds. How do we use it to help that student think, question, and build something of their own?Eugenio Salas Iturriaga joins me from Mexico's AI education community to talk about access to knowledge, responsible AI, and preparing people for a future that keeps changing. His company, Alexandr.ia, takes inspiration from the ancient Library of Alexandria and is developing AI learning systems for schools and businesses.We agree on a lot. Then we get into a real disagreement: if voice-based AI lets someone communicate, learn, and work effectively, which reading and writing skills remain essential? Eugenio makes the case for protecting those skills. I question whether we're treating every familiar skill as a permanent requirement.THE AGI PODCASTAdvance, Grow, and Innovate with AIWHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY• How Eugenio approaches personalized learning, institutional rules, and teacher oversight.• Why getting an answer and developing understanding are different outcomes.• The tension between expanding access through voice and preserving reading and writing skills.• Why we both see a role for ethics, psychology, and the humanities in AI's future.• What it means to become a creator with AI instead of only a consumer.We also compare experiences in Mexico and the United States, discuss the challenges around data centers and education policy, and share the AI tools we're using. We finish with WALL-E, Black Mirror, The Matrix, and a little Sangre por Sangre.TRY THISTake something you're trying to learn. Ask AI to question your reasoning before giving you an answer. Then explain the idea back in your own words, aloud or in writing, and see what you actually understand.CHAPTERS00:00 Meet Eugenio and our connection to Mexico03:37 Mexico's AI ecosystem06:25 AI headlines, risk, and responsibility12:46 Creators or consumers?14:43 Alexandr.ia and access to knowledge20:03 Voice, literacy, and how we learn23:48 Which skills remain essential?29:10 AI in Mexican schools32:12 Classroom adoption, values, and student privacy35:07 Data centers, power, and community promises38:57 Preparing students for a changing workforce42:38 The humanities, ethics, and human work44:33 Comparing approaches to AI in education49:17 Young AI leadership and social impact51:44 Where to find Eugenio52:51 AI workflows, subscriptions, and daily tools58:25 WALL-E, Black Mirror, and The Matrix01:01:15 Sangre por Sangre and closing thoughtsCONNECT WITH EUGENIOEugenio Salas Iturriaga is the founder and CEO of Alexandr.ia AI Learning Systems and leads the Mexico City Hub of the Young AI Leaders Community associated with ITU's AI for Good initiative.Alexandr.ia:https://www.alexandriamx.com/LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/eugeniosalasi/RESOURCESEugenio's founder profile:https://www.alexandriamx.com/founder/eugenioAI for Good speaker profile:https://aiforgood.itu.int/speaker/eugenio-salas-iturriaga/CONNECT WITH JASON PADGETTJason Padgett | AI Solutions Architect | Co-Founder, Wooden Boy Industries | Host, AGI Podcast | AI Adoption, LLM Systems & Human-AI WorkflowsAGI - Advance Grow and Innovate with AI Podcast Network🌐 https://schoolsout.agipodcast.ai/CoFounder, Wooden Boy Industries🌐 https://woodenboyindustriesai.com/Chief AI Officer, Chakra AI Solutions🌐 https://chakrasolutions.ai/📧 jason@agipodcast.aiPRODUCTION TOOLSRiversideOpenAI Codex#AGIPodcast#AIinEducation#ResponsibleAI

Are Data Centers Really Scary? Water, Power & Community Trust | Behind the Cape
A data center is proposed near your home. What happens to your water, your power bill and your say in what comes next? This conversation helps you identify the questions your community needs answered before a deal is signed.For Behind the Cape, I brought together Brad Tietz of the Data Center Coalition, IU's David Konisky, Purdue's Roberto Gallardo and co-moderator Shaneeka R. Abram. Shaneeka has lived in a data center community, and her account of disrupted businesses and limited notice puts the debate into everyday terms.We get into the industry's case for jobs and investment, the uncertainty around electricity costs, and why cooling systems and local water conditions matter. David and Roberto push us to consider trust, rural identity and the neighbors who may carry a disproportionate share of the costs. The panel also tackles NDAs and whether a public hearing means much if residents feel the decision has already been made.WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAYThe differences between data center types and workloads.Questions to ask about water use, cooling and electricity infrastructure.Why early, meaningful public participation matters.How to examine jobs and community benefits alongside local disruptions.Why exit plans and electronic waste belong in the conversation early.Communities should negotiate from an informed position. Pick three questions from the Penn State guide below and bring them to your next public meeting. Ask who will answer them, when, and in writing.PANEL & HOSTSBrad Tietz | Director of Government Affairs, Midwest, Data Center Coalitionhttps://www.datacentercoalition.org/cpages/brad-tietzDavid Konisky | Professor and Associate Dean for Research, Indiana University O'Neill School; co-director, Energy Justice Labhttps://oneill.indiana.edu/faculty-research/directory/profiles/faculty/full-time/konisky-david.htmlRoberto Gallardo | Associate Professor and Vice President for Engagement, Purdue University.

The Silicon Prairie Weighs In on Silicon Valley with Derek Weinberg
What should we teach our kids when the future of work keeps moving? And how much freedom should we give the AI tools already helping us through the day?Derek Weinberg joins Jason Padgett for a conversation from the Silicon Prairie about where Silicon Valley is taking us. We start with Indiana's AI community and work our way through proactive assistants, education, privacy, and the question of who gets to decide what AI should value.THE AGI PODCASTAdvance, Grow, and Innovate with AISeason 2, Episode 2WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY• Clear communication and the ability to examine your own thinking are practical AI skills.• Preparing students for their future means thinking beyond chatbot access and prompt lessons.• The habits we build with AI may carry over into how we treat people.• More capable assistants raise harder questions about permission, privacy, and control.Derek makes a case that stays with me: the AI mistake we should worry about might be completely innocent. A tool can pursue a reasonable instruction in a way nobody anticipated.We also compare notes on the assistants we're using, question the industry's timelines, and turn to Battlestar Galactica and Blade Runner to think through the futures we're building.TRY THISChoose one task you want to hand to AI. Define success, give it the context it needs, and decide where it should stop and ask you. Clear expectations matter whether you're working with a person or a machine.CONNECT WITH DEREK WEINBERGDerek joins Jason from Indiana's business and analytics community and brings his experience teaching in the Kelley Evening MBA program.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derekjweinbergFox-Current: https://foxcurrent.substack.com/RESOURCES MENTIONEDDerek's article, The Metacognitive Divide:https://foxcurrent.substack.com/p/the-metacognitive-divideCEOs of Indiana Corporate Partnership:https://www.cicpindiana.com/CONNECT WITH JASON PADGETTJason Padgett | AI Solutions Architect | Co-Founder, Wooden Boy Industries | Host, AGI Podcast | AI Adoption, LLM Systems & Human-AI WorkflowsAGI - Advance Grow and Innovate with AI Podcast Network🌐 https://schoolsout.agipodcast.ai/CoFounder, Wooden Boy Industries🌐 https://woodenboyindustriesai.com/Chief AI Officer, Chakra AI Solutions🌐 https://chakrasolutions.ai/📧 jason@agipodcast.aiPRODUCTION TOOLSRiversideOpenAI Codex

Your AI Needs a Team | Multiplayer AI with Ryan Powell
Your team is using AI, but everyone is still working in separate chats and passing answers around. Ryan Powell and Jason Padgett talk through what it takes for people and agents to share context, collaborate, and carry work forward together.Ryan brings the conversation down to the actual work: organizing company data, separating reporting from production systems, deciding what a business can afford, and giving agents access to the information they need. He describes his work leading digital solutions at R.T. Moore and explains the difference between a swarm of agents serving one person and several people working with shared agents.Jason pushes for more autonomy. Ryan makes the case for earning trust through delegation and having someone who understands the work review the results. They compare personal agents with AI coworkers, discuss permissions and persistent memory, and finish with robotics, science fiction, and a very strange conversation with Grok.WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAYWhy useful, accessible company data matters more than accumulating more dataHow shared agents and multiplayer AI could change team collaborationWhat human review requires beyond clicking an approval boxHow permissions, context, and delegation shape the work an agent can take onWhere vibe coding fits when you understand the business problem but need technical helpTRY THIS WITH YOUR TEAMPick one recurring handoff. Identify the context people keep repeating, the information an agent needs, and the person qualified to judge its work. Start there, then widen its responsibility as the results earn your trust.ABOUT THE GUESTRyan Powell introduces himself as the head of digital solutions at R.T.

21 and Building With AI: Hudson Conkling on Work, Learning and Empathy
At 21, Hudson Conkling is already building with AI. He joins Jason Padgett to explain what surprised him about moving from college into an AI workplace, how personal connections helped him find opportunities, and why learning still matters when a machine can produce the answer.The conversation moves from careers and classrooms to attention, relationships, faith, and responsibility. Hudson's point about empathy gives the episode its center: effective communication starts with caring about the person you are talking to.You will hear about:• Learning with AI rather than letting it do the homework.• Moving from chatbot answers to practical work.• Entering an AI career and keeping a beginner's mindset.• Reading the room and explaining technology to different audiences.• Giving machines useful work while preserving human judgment.Hudson shares his experience as a recent Anderson University graduate in computer science and cybersecurity.

China, China, China | The Weekly Blitz
If China and the United States are racing toward different versions of an AI future, how do we decide who is winning?Jason Padgett and Julie Koehrer take on China, China, China in this Weekly Blitz. They debate open-source models, robotics, regulation, economic competition, and what practical AI adoption could mean for everyday people. Julie questions why technological progress cannot be shared more broadly. Jason pushes on the costs, incentives, and risks behind that possibility.The conversation then turns to how AI systems are trained, whose values shape them, and whether humans can keep control as those systems become more capable.Listen for:What Jason and Julie mean by winning the AI race.The tension between affordable technology, investment, and jobs.Their questions about model distillation and intellectual property.The difference between rewarding an AI system and trying to teach it principles.Why both hosts end on the importance of learning from one another.An opinionated conversation, with room for disagreement and hypothetical scenarios, about the choices shaping an AI future we all have to live in.Host Links:Jason PadgettRelentless, unapologetically contrarian, and driven to make AI practical for everyday people.🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-grant-padgett/💬 jason@agipodcast.aiThe AGI Podcast NetworkAdvance, Grow, and Innovate with AI.🌐 https://schoolsout.agipodcast.ai/Chakra AI SolutionsChief Solutions Architect🌐 https://chakrasolutions.ai/Wooden Boy IndustriesBring your biggest challenge.

The Gloves Come Off
Personal AI agents are moving into calendars, inboxes, phones, and feeds. The harder question is who carries responsibility when those systems shape what people see, believe, and choose.Jason Padgett and Julie Koehrer take the gloves off in this Weekly Blitz. What starts with Meta Muse, Grok Bot, privacy, and AI regulation turns into a real argument about the economy, data-center incentives, capitalism, billionaires, water, algorithms, and whether responsibility sits with companies, government, or the public.The disagreement gets heated. They stay in it, listen, push back, and end with the thing this show is supposed to make room for: two people who respect each other enough to argue honestly.RSVP for the Chakra AI Solutions' Launch Party, October 11th at Daniel's Vineyard in McCordsville: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/chakra-ai-solutions-launch-event-tickets-1997164099584WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAYWhat personal AI agents gain when users give them access to everyday work and dataWhy software accountability and AI regulation remain unsettledHow headlines, algorithms, and personal choices shape what reaches our feedsWhere Jason and Julie split on business incentives, taxes, and public responsibilityWhy respectful disagreement still matters when the stakes feel personalABOUT THE WEEKLY BLITZJason Padgett and Julie Koehrer meet on Monday mornings to sort through the AI headlines, argue through the tradeoffs, and ask what any of it means for regular people trying to live and work through the change.RESOURCES MENTIONEDMeta Musehttps://about.fb.com/news/2026/09/introducing-muse-personal-ai-agent/Grok Bothttps://x.ai/news/introducing-grok-botClaude's Constitutionhttps://www.anthropic.com/constitutionOpenAI DevDay 2026https://openai.com/index/devday-2026/CONNECT WITH JASON PADGETTJason Padgett | AI Solutions Architect | Co-Founder, Wooden Boy Industries | Host, AGI Podcast | AI Adoption, LLM Systems & Human-AI WorkflowsAGI - Advance Grow and Innovate with AI Podcast Network🌐 https://schoolsout.agipodcast.ai/CoFounder, Wooden Boy Industries🌐 https://woodenboyindustriesai.com/Chief Solutions Architect, Chakra AI Solutions🌐 https://chakrasolutions.ai/📧 jason@agipodcast.aiTOOLS USEDRiversideChatGPT

What Are We Racing To? AI Assistants, Privacy, and Buying Back Time | The Weekly BlitzJulie asks the question that cuts through most AI productivity pitches: what are we racing to?In this Weekly Blitz, Julie Koehrer and Jason Padgett work through that question without pretending they agree on every answer.
