00:00:03,269 --> 00:00:04,070
I’m Molly Wood,

00:00:04,070 --> 00:00:06,039
business and technology journalist.

5
00:00:06,289 --> 00:00:09,409
This season is all about one bold idea,

6
00:00:09,776 --> 00:00:11,428
frontier firms.

7
00:00:11,428 --> 00:00:12,796
These are human-led,

8
00:00:12,796 --> 00:00:14,881
AI-operated organizations

9
00:00:15,048 --> 00:00:17,484
that treat intelligence like a utility.

10
00:00:17,734 --> 00:00:19,519
Buy it like electricity,

11
00:00:19,586 --> 00:00:21,571
deploy it across workflows,

12
00:00:21,604 --> 00:00:23,723
compound it like interest.

13
00:00:23,823 --> 00:00:24,541
But right now,

14
00:00:24,724 --> 00:00:26,626
leaders and employees are asking,

15
00:00:27,210 --> 00:00:28,094
“How?”

16
00:00:28,378 --> 00:00:29,479
How do leaders

17
00:00:29,479 --> 00:00:31,531
reshape their orgs to be AI first?

18
00:00:31,798 --> 00:00:32,716
How do employees

19
00:00:32,716 --> 00:00:34,801
learn to work effectively inside them?

20
00:00:35,552 --> 00:00:36,302
This season

21
00:00:36,302 --> 00:00:38,538

22
00:00:38,788 --> 00:00:40,840
with a lot of practical guidance

23
00:00:40,924 --> 00:00:42,092
to help get you there.

24
00:00:42,409 --> 00:00:44,077

28
