  • The AI That's Already Taking Your Drive-Thru Order (And You Don't Even Know It)
    In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall interviews Krishna Gupta, co-founder of Presto, who reveals how AI is already serving millions of customers at drive-thrus across America - and most people can't even tell the difference. Gupta explains his "neuro-symbolic" approach that combines large language models with human oversight to prevent the kind of hallucinations that could turn "burger without onions" into "burger with only onions." The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Gupta describes how voice AI can now identify customer demographics in real-time, allowing restaurants to test new products and personalize offers without collecting personal data. Restaurant employees at chains like Taco John's and Carl's Jr. have started treating the AI as a genuine team member, freeing them to focus on food quality and customer connection rather than repetitive order-taking. Gupta makes a striking prediction that AI boyfriends and girlfriends will become far more common than most people expect, while sharing his philosophy that the best AI companies keep humans at the center of their mission. For listeners curious to experience this technology firsthand, Presto is already deployed at drive-thrus nationwide, with TikTok users documenting their interactions and more restaurant chains rolling out the system every month.

  • "I Predicted 15 Movies Within $20,000 Each": How AI is Revolutionizing Film Production
    In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall sits down with Nicholas Capone, owner of Mixed Slate Productions, who built an AI system that predicts movie revenues with stunning accuracy across all distribution channels and territories. Capone shares the moment when his AI correctly forecasted box office numbers, streaming revenues, and international sales for 15 different films within $20,000 of their actual performance, transforming what used to be a $10,000, three-week process into a five-minute analysis. From automatically generating screenplay coverage reports to identifying optimal actors within budget constraints, his AI handles every stage of production from pre-development to delivery. The system even detected Adult Swim layoffs before Capone heard about them, leading him to hire top-tier directors at the perfect moment. A former homeless individual turned successful producer, Capone reveals how his technology is forcing the entire film industry to adopt better business practices while reducing production costs from $150,000 monthly to just $200. He envisions a future where movies become more targeted and theaters make a comeback, supported by revolutionary technologies that let audiences experience 360-degree views during screenings.

  • SEO Content That Ranks Before You Even Hit Publish With 80% Less Research Time
    In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall sits down with Tom Winter, co-founder and CGO at SEOwind, who's cracked the code on AI-driven content that dominates search rankings. Winter reveals how his platform goes beyond basic AI writing by conducting the research humans typically spend 4-5 hours on, pulling competitor data, case studies, and trending topics to create content that reads like it was written by someone who lived the experience. One travel agency client was stunned when SEOwind produced content about a country that felt like it came from a local expert, complete with authentic quotes and insider knowledge. Winter shares his "80% research, 20% writing" philosophy and explains how SEOwind's agent-driven workflow makes decisions at each step, building user profiles that get smarter with every interaction. The platform recently helped one customer generate over $1,000 monthly revenue from just 15 minutes of content optimization work. Winter challenges listeners to start with updating existing content using SEOwind's free trial, turning a tedious 5-hour process into an automated workflow that consistently moves content up Google's rankings.

  • Former Child Star's AI Breaks 3-Year Career Sabotage Cycle in Just 14 Days
    What if Hollywood-level storytelling could rewrite the script of your life? In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall sits down with Caryn Ward Ross, founder of RE:FRAME Studios AI, who transforms personal identity using the same cinematic techniques that create blockbusters. A former child actor from Fame and The Bernie Mac Show, Ward Ross discovered that playing other people's roles left her unable to play herself authentically. Now she's developed an AI platform that helps people "spot the lie" in their life stories and rewrite limiting narratives unconsciously directing their choices. Ward Ross shares how one client shifted from "I get close, but never win" to "I was born to break generational cycles," landing a partnership he'd pursued for years within two weeks. For listeners ready to step into the lead role of their own story, Ward Ross challenges you to identify the automatic scripts running your relationships, career, and financial decisions.
