About this Podcast:
Beyond Yet, formerly AI in Action, is about what becomes possible when “I don’t know how” stops being the end of the conversation.For years, AI in Action explored practical ways AI was changing education, work, and everyday life. But somewhere along the way, we realized the bigger story wasn’t AI itself. It was what AI was allowing ordinary people to attempt, learn, solve, build, and create.That’s where Beyond Yet begins.Because “I don’t know how” doesn’t have to mean “I can’t.”If you can think it, you can create it. So, why settle for second best?
