About This Podcast

We are Beside, a partnership of technology consultants, linked by a common goal: to help small- and medium-sized companies use AI not to replace their teams, but to empower them to work smarter. We set up this podcast to help you make sense of the fast-moving world of AI. The industry evolves incredibly fast, so we created a place to slow down and provide some much-needed analysis and level-headed commentary. Please email us your questions or feedback at [email protected].
