#322 Amanda Luther: The Widening AI Value Gap (Inside BCG's AI Research)
Eye On A.I.
In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith speaks with Amanda Luther, Senior Partner at Boston Consulting Group and global lead of BCG’s AI Transformation practice, about what their latest 1,500-company AI study reveals about the widening gap between AI leaders and laggards. Only 5% of companies are truly “future-built” with AI embedded across their core business functions. These firms are seeing measurable gains in revenue growth, EBIT margins, and shareholder returns. Meanwhile, 60% of organizations are either experimenting or struggling to extract real value. Amanda breaks down how BCG...

#318 Olek Paraska: How AI Is Fixing the Biggest Bottleneck in Construction
Eye On A.I.
Construction is one of the least digitized industries in the world, and not because it resists technology. It resists bad technology. In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith sits down with Olek Paraska, CTO of Togal AI, to break down why construction productivity has barely improved in 50 years and why pre-construction is the real bottleneck holding the industry back. Olek explains how most estimating and takeoff work is still done manually, why automating this phase can unlock massive efficiency gains, and how AI works best in construction when it acts as a perception and reasoning layer...

#317 Steven Brown: Why Modern Medicine Needs AI-Assisted Decision Making
Eye On A.I.
In this episode of the Eye on AI Podcast, Craig Smith sits down with Steve Brown, founder of CureWise, to explore how agentic AI is reshaping healthcare from the patient’s perspective. Steve shares the deeply personal story behind CureWise, born out of his own experience with a rare cancer diagnosis that was repeatedly missed by traditional medical pathways. The conversation dives into why modern healthcare struggles with complex, edge-case conditions, how fragmented medical data and time-constrained systems fail patients, and where AI can meaningfully help without replacing clinicians. The...

#316 Robbie Goldfarb: Why the Future of AI Depends on Better Judgment
Eye On A.I.
AI is getting smarter, but now it needs better judgment. In this episode of the Eye on AI Podcast, we speak with Robbie Goldfarb, former Meta product leader and co-founder of Forum AI, about why treating AI as a truth engine is one of the most dangerous assumptions in modern artificial intelligence. Robbie brings first-hand experience from Meta’s trust and safety and AI teams, where he worked on misinformation, elections, youth safety, and AI governance. He explains why large language models shouldn’t be treated as arbiters of truth, why subjective domains like politics, health, and...

#314 Nick Pandher: How Inference-First Infrastructure Is Powering the Next Wave of AI
Eye On A.I.
Inference is now the biggest challenge in enterprise AI. In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith speaks with Nick Pandher, VP of Product at Cirrascale, about why AI is shifting from model training to inference at scale. As AI moves into production, enterprises are prioritizing performance, latency, reliability, and cost efficiency over raw compute. The conversation covers the rise of inference-first infrastructure, the limits of hyperscalers, the emergence of neoclouds, and how agentic AI is driving always-on inference workloads. Nick also explains how inference-optimized hardware and...

Why is AI inference becoming the new battleground for speed, cost, and real world scalability, and how are companies like Clarifai reshaping the AI stack by optimizing every token and every deployment?
In this episode of Eye on AI, host Craig Smith sits down with Clarifai founder and CEO Matt Zeiler to explore why inference is now more important than training and how a unified compute orchestration layer is changing the way teams run LLMs and agentic systems.
We look at what makes high performance inference possible across cloud, on prem, and edge environments, how to get faster responses from large language models, and how to cut GPU spend without sacrificing intelligence or accuracy. Learn how organizations operate AI systems in regulated industries, how government teams and enterprises use Clarifai to deploy models securely, and which bottlenecks matter most when running long context, multimodal, or high throughput applications.
You will also hear how to optimize your own AI workloads with better token throughput, how to choose the right hardware strategy for scale, and how inference first architecture can turn models into real products. This conversation breaks down the tools, techniques, and design patterns that can help your AI agents run faster, cheaper, and more reliably in production.
