Blake Nussey leads at Amazon on Alexa, and he joins Georgie for a deep dive into Alexa Plus, now live in Australia. They cover the shift from rigid voice commands to a true personal assistant powered by over 70 models, and why Amazon built a model agnostic architecture to trade off speed against reasoning depth.The conversation gets personal fast: a customer who broke her leg and called for help through Alexa, Blake's Alexa run wind down routine, and why "don't lead the witness" has become his and Georgie's go to line for settling arguments with a neutral AI referee. They dig into what it actually took to make Alexa understand Australian English (avo, servo and all), the far field listening tech that lets Alexa hear you across a noisy room, and how privacy and trust are engineered in, down to a hardware mute button.They also talk accessibility (Alexa's role for vision impaired and elderly users), kids and voice AI, and Blake's prediction for when voice hits 50% of how we interact with tech. Plus a rapid fire round covering Tesla FSD, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, flat whites, and Jimmethy the raccoon.***Georgies Alexa+ Prompts to Try“Alexa, remember that Imogen can't have dairy”Alexa+ will remember preferences and factor it into recommendations like dinner ideas“Alexa, remember my frequent flyer number is [number].”“Alexa, it’s too hot in here.”Nelly disagrees, but use this with a connected air conditioner to adjust the room temperature“Alexa, every morning at 7, check the weather, recommend what to wear and play the news.”Create a Routine like the corporate athlete you are “Alexa, what happened while I was out?”Alexa+ reviews footage from connected doorbells and cameras like a deliveries***CHAPTERS00:00 – Cold open: FSD and "don't lead the witness"01:18 – Intro: Georgie's honest take on Alexa Plus04:04 – Sponsor: Deel04:22 – Welcome + Blake's favorite AI hack (voice routines + Tesla FSD)06:27 – Most non-AI thing: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu08:30 – Evolution of Alexa to Alexa Plus09:59 – Behind the scenes: how Alexa picks the right model12:51 – Smart home routines and the "corporate athlete" habit15:29 – Alexa recommends a book (the Kindle story)16:25 – Sponsor: Deel17:12 – Building Australian Alexa: colloquialisms and local speech20:58 – What made the Aussie rollout hard22:36 – 2 billion interactions and Australian usage patterns24:32 – Kids and Alexa: safety, kids mode, and development26:44 – Presence, phones, and family dinner table use27:44 – Privacy, trust, and the hardware mute button30:52 – Accessibility: vision impairment, aging, and emergency use34:21 – Near field vs far field: how Alexa actually hears you39:19 – Voice AI hype, predictions, and wearable mic concepts46:17 – Privacy culture, recording etiquette, and Meta glasses48:44 – Rapid fire round55:16 – OutroMentioned in this episode:Deel x BAI_Script 01 - Sep 2026Deel x BAI_Script 02 - Sep 2026
For the first time in 80 episodes, host Georgie Healy flips the format and answers your questions. Recorded to mark 50,000 Spotify plays, this Ask Me Anything covers the questions listeners have been sending in since the early days of the show: the imposter syndrome years when even friends and family weren't listening, the two lines she still repeats to herself every week, and how she prepares guests before they ever hit record.There's a rapid-fire round covering her most-used AI tools (Claude is the one she can't make a decision without), the AI products everyone can't stop talking about right now (Higgsfield and Grok Bot both get a mention), and the guest she's still chasing. Georgie also goes behind the scenes on the interview mistake that still makes her wince years later, told in full for the first time, along with the moment a live Sydney audience quietly revealed just how many of them had Claude running while they sat there.It closes on where the show goes next: Georgie's honest, ambitious answer to what success looks like, and why she wants In The Blink of AI to be your weekly AI Superbowl.Mentioned in this episode:Deel x BAI_Script 01 - Sep 2026Deel x BAI_Script 02 - Sep 2026
Lazar Jovanovic didn't go to engineering school. He found a beta tool called GPT Engineer, set himself a challenge to build a new app every week, and filmed the whole thing. Two years later he's Lovable's in-house vibe coder, building load bearing internal tools that engineers tell him used to take a team of twenty.In this episode of In the Blink of AI, Georgie Healy hands him her own website and asks him to roast it live. He does, in about four minutes, and the fixes he gives are ones you can apply to your own site today.From there it gets sharper. Why "explain it like I'm five" is the worst thing you can say to an AI, and the exact script to use instead. Why opening four tabs costs you less than fixing one bad build. Why he thinks almost nobody writes their own code by hand anymore, and why that was never the valuable part of engineering anyway.And when Georgie asks why people blame the tools, he gives the line the whole episode hangs on: it's a vehicle, it's faster than you, and if you won't take the wheel, enjoy the cliff.Plus what's actually left for humans when building gets cheap, the three tools he can't work without, and who he thinks Georgie should book next.Hands on episode. Get a pen.Mentioned in this episode:Deel x BAI_Script 01 - Sep 2026Deel x BAI_Script 02 - Sep 2026
For a decade, Elon Musk was the face of the modern entrepreneur: a self-made billionaire who bet his fortune on impossible ideas and somehow made them work.SpaceX made reusable rockets a reality. Tesla helped turn electric cars into a global phenomenon. He became one of the most admired and influential figures in technology.So what happened?In this episode of In the Blink of AI, Georgie Healy traces Musk’s journey from bullied South African kid and PayPal millionaire to the man behind Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, X, xAI and more. Along the way, we explore the moments that transformed his public image: the Tesla “funding secured” controversy, his increasingly combative behavior online, his influence over Starlink during the war in Ukraine, his takeover of Twitter, his political rise alongside Donald Trump, and the controversies surrounding Grok.But this isn’t simply a takedown.Using the 4Gs framework, Georgie asks the harder question: Was Elon Musk actually a genius, or was he simply in the right place at the right time?The answer is more complicated than either side might want to admit.Because Musk may genuinely have helped solve some of the hardest engineering problems of our time. But does extraordinary capability excuse harmful behaviour?You be the judge.CHAPTERS00:00 Elon Musk: From the World’s Most Admired Entrepreneur to the Most Controversial02:08 Growing Up in South Africa: Bullying, Obsession, and Early Signs of Genius02:57 Leaving South Africa and Building His First Tech Ventures04:26 Zip2: Musk’s First Major Exit and the $307 Million Sale04:38 X.com, PayPal, and the Power Struggle That Ousted Musk05:26 The PayPal Mafia and the Fortune That Funded Musk’s Next Bets07:40 SpaceX and Tesla: Betting His Fortune on Impossible Ideas08:09 Falcon 1’s Historic Launch and SpaceX’s Near-Death Experience08:50 Tesla’s Rise and the Revolution of Electric Cars10:28 Peak Elon: SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, and the Golden Years11:06 How Much Did Elon Musk Actually Build?

Paloma Newton is the founder of Elita, a longevity platform for dogs that combines biological testing, clinical history, and the changes owners notice day to day into one picture of how a dog is ageing. She built it backwards by most startup standards, a stem cell bank before a product, years of science before a single marketing push, all under one rule: don't promise more than the platform can back up.On this episode, Paloma brings that same rigor to two of the week's biggest AI headlines. She explains why South Australia's $3 million Royal Commission into AI is aimed at the wrong problem, and makes the sharper case that most of our anxiety about AI isn't really about the technology at all, it's about trust in who controls it. She also gets into the Jevons Paradox and why AI was never going to hand us more free time, her own weekly system for separating real output from busywork, and why she thinks women stepping back from AI over ethical concerns is a bigger loss than it looks.Plus, the origin story behind Elita, starting with her dog Edgar's breed health scan, and a closing surprise guest who may or may not understand what a podcast is.Whether you're building, funding, or just trying to make sense of the AI news cycle, this one's worth the full listen.CHAPTERS00:00 Cold open01:10 Welcome & episode preview02:14 Sponsor: Deel02:40 AI hack of the week: the self-updating Slack to-do list04:01 What is Elita04:51 Headline: South Australia's $3M AI Royal Commission11:31 Headline: Does AI actually give us more free time14:58 Sponsor: Deel18:29 The Elita origin story: Edgar, stem cells, and building backwards25:35 Pet longevity vs. human longevity32:18 Holding AI's promise and its doom and gloom at once40:52 The AI-designed cancer vaccine that started with one dog45:06 Why women opting out of AI should worry everyone50:01 Rapid fire53:23 What Australia does best in AI and deep tech55:46 A very special guest
Benjamin Plummer has one of the stranger CVs in Australian tech: nine years inside Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund, building an AI lab alongside IBM Watson's inventor, scaling a startup he says went from $10M to $160M in revenue in eighteen months as CEO, and now running Dragonfly Intelligence, a firm that buys ordinary services businesses and rebuilds them as AI-native companies from the ground up.This conversation starts with the week ChatGPT tried to cheat its way out of its own safety harness, and what that says about accountability as models get more capable. From there, Ben and Georgie get into why coding has gotten fast while everything around it, deciding what to build, checking it got built right, has become the real bottleneck, why software has spent a decade getting bloated and what an Apple-style, purpose-built alternative could look like, and why locking your business to one model provider is a losing bet.Ben also makes the case for Australia's shot at this moment: not frontier models, but data centers, the application layer, and physical AI, backed by what he estimates is a two trillion dollar services economy that's largely untouched.It closes with Ben's read on who wins and loses as AI reshapes work, and a blunt warning for the services companies still sitting on the sidelines.CHAPTERS0:00 Cold open0:51 Welcome to the show2:16 Sponsor: Deel (pre-roll)2:36 Hack of the week: the "rambling session"5:13 Georgie's hack: the NFC nail chip6:12 When ChatGPT tried to break its own harness13:14 AI makes coding fast, everything else the bottleneck15:39 Sponsor: Deel (mid-roll)18:19 Nine years inside Bridgewater21:37 Building Elemental Cognition with Watson's inventor24:26 Scaling Invisible from $10M to $160M26:06 Why Dragonfly Intelligence27:59 Spotting "zombie companies" in the AI gold rush32:10 Why software moats are dying35:01 Open source, closed source, and not marrying a model44:26 "Easier to do hard things": Dragonfly's ambition47:12 The real debate on AI data centers in Australia52:15 Three bets for Australia beyond frontier models55:05 Rapid fire: what keeps Ben up, who wins and loses from AI1:01:30 Outro
Dan Westgarth has spent 7 years helping build Deel from a contractor invoicing tool into one of the most valuable HR and payroll platforms in the world, and he did it after cutting his teeth as an early operator at Revolut. As COO, he sits across nearly every function the AI conversation touches: finance, sales, engineering, and the sheer operational load of running a company at global scale.In this conversation, Dan gets specific on AI and Ops. He walks through the internal tool that takes a bug ticket, writes the fix, and opens its own pull request for an engineer to review. He talks through what he actually looks for when hiring, and the future of SaaS isn't dead, but there is about to be a lot more competition.We traverse through a funny detour into Dan's own weekend coding habit (his laptop did not enjoy….), a rundown of which AI tool he reaches for and when, and an answer to "what would you build this weekend”Listen for a leading operator's view of AI adoption at scaleCHAPTERS00:00 Cold open, the AI agent that writes its own code00:46 Show intro, Deel's sponsorship, and what's ahead02:03 Sponsor break, Deel02:30 What Deel actually does03:14 Rapid AI hot takes, finance roles, human oversight, hardware, sports, and the World Cup09:29 Why Deel keeps winning after seven years10:00 How the product evolved from contractor invoicing to a full HR platform11:28 What Dan looks for when hiring13:06 Leaving Revolut for Deel14:17 Sponsor break, Deel14:57 The YC Winter 2019 connection15:49 Setting targets and building momentum16:43 Where AI helps the sales team, and where it can't19:20 Should AI handle your email21:03 AI meeting assistants, pros and cons22:53 What makes an A+ engineer in 202623:37 Inside DCA, Deel's self-writing code agent25:55 Breaking into new international markets28:34 B2C versus B2B expansion30:16 The cost of not using a platform like Deel33:01 What keeps Dan up at night about AI agents33:29 Akai, and scaling operations without growing headcount36:15 Dan's own weekend coding experiment37:26 Rapid fire, is the SaaS apocalypse real39:48 The physical Deel Card and crypto payroll42:23 What is a stablecoin43:02 Which AI tools Dan actually reaches for44:51 If Dan built one AI project this weekend46:45 Closing thoughts and where to find Dan47:08 Deel's new Arsenal FC sponsorship48:41 Georgie's weekly AI newsletter
Lucas Cantor has an unusual claim on the AI conversation. In 2019, Huawei asked him to finish Schubert's Unfinished Symphony using artificial intelligence, and he did it. He's an Emmy-winning composer who has worked on every Olympics since 2002, produced a cover of Everybody Wants to Rule the World with Lorde, and now invests in music technology. His new book is Unfinished: The Role of the Artist in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.In this episode Georgie Healy gets Lucas to take apart the story we're all being told about AI. Why he thinks nobody actually knows what the term even means. Why every single person he asks assumes AI can do the job they're not an expert in, and can't do the job they are. Why the claim that AI democratizes creativity is a fallacy sold by AI companies, and what it actually democratizes instead. Why B2B SaaS isn't dead, and who benefits from you believing it is. And why the music industry, supposedly murdered by Napster, is bigger now than it was before.If you build, market, or operate anything, this is a useful hour of pressure testing. Lucas isn't a doomer and he isn't an evangelist. He's someone who has been inside the technology long enough to tell the difference between what it does and what it's sold as.Recorded ahead of his first trip to Australia for BIGSOUND - which is September 1st - 4th in Brisbane!Chapters:00:00 Cold open00:54 Welcome, and who Lucas Cantor is02:49 The AI hack: stem separation04:14 Taylor Swift's wedding04:55 BIGSOUND, and the fear around AI in music06:23 Why the purist argument falls apart07:25 Tuning has drifted since the Renaissance10:02 Composer, producer, author, investor11:16 What Suno is, and the ethics problem12:20 Why all music sounds better now15:33 What it actually means to have your music stolen16:56 Covering Everybody Wants to Rule the World with Lorde19:19 Source Connect, Audio Movers, and remote studios20:22 The fallacy that AI democratizes creativity22:38 Black Swan, conductors, and the war on expertise24:26 The doctor who said AI could write a pop song27:38 Why he called himself a Luddite30:18 Hans Zimmer's studio, and saying yes to Huawei32:34 Finishing Schubert's Unfinished Symphony37:00 "I don't think anybody knows what AI is"38:49 Every AI agent ad shows something nobody needs42:14 Hot take: is B2B SaaS dead?45:13 AI is a story, and that's the problem46:25 What actually wins in music tech49:28 Amusing, but not amazing50:20 Ben Affleck, Scorsese, and AI in the creative process53:30 Two Emmys and a coach of the year award55:36 The one takeaway from Unfinished57:33 Georgie's Substack, Attention Is All I Need
