NEW TO CLOUD? CHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCAST: "CLOUDCAST BASICS"
SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - What are we announcing? (“The Reasoning Show”, a.k.a. “Reasoning”)
- New name, same RSS feeds (same podcast players)
- New logo
- Some existing/renamed and some new social media channels (will be listed)
- Same co-hosts (and maybe some new friends)
Topic 2 - Why are we changing The Cloudcast?
- The majority of our content is AI focused now
- Cloud has become mostly stable, AI is at the beginning and so much is changing
- We’re not abandoning Cloud, just giving it the amount of coverage needs (monthly Cloudcast, monthly CNOTM)
- Social media algorithms have changed audience acquisition
Topic 3 - Hasn’t The Cloudcast already been covering AI for a while?
- Yes, it’s been about 50/50 since 2024
- We’ve been discussing this change for almost a year.
- We actually discussed having an OpenAI-specific podcast at one point, but so much as changed in the market (which is a good reason for a diverse podcast)
Topic 4 - What can we expect from the new podcast?
- Still on Wednesday and Sunday
- Both audio and video formats (Apple, Spotify, YouTube, TikTok/Insta (clips))
- Trying to make it easier for someone new to follow along - more concentration around core topics, but not exclusively
- AI Technology, AI Economics, AI Trends, AI (Business) Use-Cases, AI Things to Watch, AI Productivity, AI Regulation
- We’ll still do a “Cloudcast” once a month, as the Cloud underpins almost everything AI
- We’ll likely do a “Reasoning Basics” spin-off, like Cloudcast Basics.
- We’ll get a newsletter pulled together (hopefully weekly).
Topic 5 - Anything else?
- Listeners don’t have to do anything to keep getting their week podcast
- Subscribe to the social media channels (show notes)
- Leave a 5-star review on the podcast players
- Tell a friend to check out the show
