Most talk about AI comes from people who have never shipped anything. This show is for the ones who have. Founders with customers, investors with capital deployed, researchers with a record, each holding an opinion they can defend, given an hour to defend it. No script, no marketing, no PR. The host builds and sells AI systems every day for the industries software forgot, and started the show to make a public record of the people doing the same in theirs.
Recorded in Birmingham
The Inference Podcast is invite only. If you have built something real and hold an opinion you can defend, you can still apply, and we read every application ourselves.
