AI – The Pros and the Pitfalls with Paul Schrimpf, Part #1 (#50)
We are excited about this episode as we talk with Paul Schrimpf, an industry stalwart in ag technology media.
Paul and I were talking about how he had been dipping his toe in using AI and how others in business were being told that they had to use AI.
We decided that the actual use of AI in both scenarios would be a great topic to discuss for our listeners.
