How I AI

I sit down with Eduardo Siman, founder and CEO of Worldsphere.ai, a Miami-based company using computer vision to better understand hurricanes and improve risk assessments, insurance intelligence, and evacuation decisions.
Eddie shares how his path into AI started through enterprise software, angel investing, and an obsession with computer vision before eventually leading him into hurricanes and the mission behind Worldsphere. 
We talk about how Hurricane Andrew shaped his personal connection to this work, how AI can translate satellite imagery into hurricane wind fields, and why integrity, human oversight, and scientific rigor still matter in high-stakes AI.

I sit down with Kelli Lewis, an outsourced CFO, author, and wealth coach for small businesses, to talk about the unsexy stuff that makes a business run: the day-to-day financial operations and the systems behind them.
Kelli shares how she uses AI as a behind-the-scenes operator to train her team faster, document processes as SOPs, and stop repeating herself across clients and staff. We talk about how Kelli uses AI to streamline her team’s workflows, turn meetings into action, and reduce the constant back-and-forth that keeps businesses stuck in financial chaos. 
We also get into what most people skip: the prompts. Kelli breaks down the kinds of questions to ask AI when you’re trying to get your finances under control, from organizing bank activity to clarifying what’s actually happening in your business each month.
 
🔥 Topics We Cover:
What “day-to-day finance management” really includes inside a small business
Why organized finances are less about spreadsheets and more about systems
How AI can support team training, documentation, and repeatable workflows
Turning meetings into clear next steps, tasks, and accountability
The mindset side of wealth and why clarity creates confidence
