Welcome back to Market On Clothes. I'm Soundbite, it's alongside Marley Caden. Let's welcome in our next guest, now Sydney Armani, who's the Champions EO AI Fintech World Group in Sydney. You look at AI for a living, you research this. What is it telling you right now? I mean, is all this talk in the market of disruption fears and who's going to be the winners and the losers in Southpocalypse and what the Satrini report had been highlighting? Is any of it justifiable? Is any of it real? Should we be scared or not? Well, good to be with you guys. Today the market is up, so everybody feeling good, so that's good to be with the job network. No, AI, I mentioned in the beginning, what any, if in the baseball, what any, we were in the AI, we were, I said, is it third, any, or fourth, any, we're getting to the fourth, any. Now we have going to have the World Cup in America, which is going to say a second quarter. So as a lot to be done, not the dust is settled, you know, everybody invested, you know, on the AI chip and the data central, but there

are other things are coming up with AI, which is more of the application, other things for AI agent, or a Genetic AI, which is very, very exciting. And Sydney, you know, we talk so much about the disruption of AI and AI potentially taking jobs. And Sam and I just before we talked to you, we're talking about Oracle doing yet another round of layoffs here, but there's a flip to AI, right? And it's potential major benefits, not just inefficiency, but in the actual progression of humanity here, I know that one of the major areas you study is AI's role in health care. You take us through some of the beneficial ways that we might see AI being incorporated into our world and into our overall health and longevity as a human race. Yeah, there were good questions actually. Not AI in health care as I studied very well and I was actually at the hospital doing a small procedure and the nurse and the doctors came to me and what did ask question they just opened their app and which is app called

Open Evidence, you know, and they did that's a research for everywhere else. And you know, so they find out what, you know, compare what my diagnosis with the other things. And so that's that's one of the good thing about AI because it interconnect all the data, all the studies be done on the AI and the help kit. Another company is actually, you know, it's called tried discovery. They already find couple of molecules on the AI drugs. So those are very important. And as they say to everybody, if you keep our stuff alive in the next five years, AI want to give us another longevity for another 10 years because AI is going to find cancer in stage zero. So how can we apply the progress we're seeing as far as how artificial intelligence is being used in health care, which as you say is something you look at very closely to other sectors than Sydney because there's been a lot of talk about how it's perhaps aiding what we're seeing as far as the war in the Middle East. But then also a headline that caught my attention this

week is now people talking about how it could even be used in air traffic control given, of course, some of the incidents we've seen recently. And that's another good question. You know, it's it's working. You know, I'm very much believer or enterprise AI because once the dust is settled, everybody uses a general cheap AI. There are people working behind the scene about tackle these problems, basically, including air traffic controls. You know, it's already AI has been using for many years, but to fast forward to make it very correction is their companies. But I want to say that to your audience out there because a lot of people are looking for new companies, but there are some old guard like 3M and other companies that they are working behind the scene and they're putting their effort in AI, basically. So it's going to be it's going to be great. I have I have a lot of full confidence in enterprise AI. And Sydney, you Sam just highlighted the potential use in terms of protecting even human life in a wartime scenario in air traffic control,

which we don't wouldn't hopefully be having a conversation about protecting human life what we are having right now with the current state of things. You as far as beyond health care and those two opportunities, where do you see benefiting first from AI adoption in in either efficiency or in innovation? Yeah, okay, so that's that's another thing whether I can see an academic academic what you know, you mentioned about you know, that's very sad of these people getting laid out, but it's a lot of challenge actually. AI is not going to take over the job. We're just changing shift to the new generation of AI builders, these applications that you can see right now and happening in that in video come up with some open cloud and other people that they are coming with. So it's very important. So the shift is going to be to the younger people that they are coming to the AI world basically and that they have to learn and they have to basically adjusting themself to learn more about how to AI work AI as a tool, not just you know,

that's what it is basically AI as a tool. Sydney fascinating chat. Thanks so much for joining us. Really appreciate it. Please come back and do it again soon. Sydney, a money there. AI Fintech World Group.
