TalkAI is where Gabe cuts through the noise and shows you what is actually happening in AI. Not the conference pitch version, the real work inside GTM teams, support orgs, product groups, and boardrooms. It is blunt. It is tactical. It is everything operators wish they could say out loud but can’t. If you want the unfiltered view of how AI is reshaping revenue, service, and execution, this is your show.
