The Bleeding Edge is a weekly AI news podcast, without the hype. Every week, Ralph Behnke and Emile Ogier break down the biggest stories in artificial intelligence (new models, the companies behind them, policy, and what it means for your work) in plain language, with the receipts.
Each episode includes:
- The week's Top 5 AI stories, fact-checked and labelled as confirmed or rumour
- A skill of the week: one prompt or technique you can use tomorrow
- Three new AI tools worth trying
- The people shaping AI, and a few laughs along the way
Ralph brings two decades of retail transformation and the builder's view: he ships with these tools himself. Emile brings the architecture and AI-security lens from two decades inside banks, regulators and global change programmes. We're not selling you anything: we have a point of view, we do the research, and when we get something wrong, we say so on the next episode.
