Marek Kowalkiewicz: The economy of algorithms I S02EP10 I Schneider Electric

Are algorithms quietly redistributing economic power—faster than most leaders are prepared for? In this episode of the AI at Scale podcast, we dive into the Economy of Algorithms with Marek Kowalkiewicz—Professor of the Digital Economy, globally recognized AI thought leader, and author of the book by the same name. Drawing on academic research, Silicon Valley experience, and global leadership roles across Asia, Europe, and Australia, Marek explains why artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool for efficiency—but an active economic agent that creates value, makes decisions, and reshapes markets at scale. This is a must‑listen conversation for everyone navigating an economy increasingly shaped by algorithms. 🔔 Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 00:38 - Guest Introduction 02:40 - Algorithms as a new actors in the economy 04:55 - What is the value of AI in the economy? 10:00 - “Slop-fluencers” 13:00 - The most succesful approach to innovation 16:06 - New value streams 20:11 - Advice for the future 23:55 - Wrap up ➡️ Learn More: https://aiatscale.podbean.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=2024_jun_pl_sd_einnovation_&campaign_objective=awareness&mcl_name=einnovation ➡️Watch the first season of AI at Scale podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa7UGrWOTyjl_Q8d0Ze2upYdHp7e3uJVU&si=RxUmNVhYTwZpoZIF --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🎯 DISCOVER JOB OPPORTUNITIES --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ➡️ Job Opportunities: http://spr.ly/6002e51fp --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👋 GET TO KNOW US BETTER --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ➡️ Global Website: http://spr.ly/6007e5GEv ➡️ Discover our Services: http://spr.ly/6009e5GOJ ➡️ Visit our Blog: http://spr.ly/6001e5GkB ➡️ Click here to subscribe to Schneider Electric: http://spr.ly/6005e5G9R --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ⚡ GET IN TOUCH VIA SOCIAL MEDIA --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ➡️ LinkedIn: http://spr.ly/6008e5GWy ➡️ Facebook: http://spr.ly/6001e5Gsz ➡️ X: http://spr.ly/6000e5GFM ➡️ Instagram: http://spr.ly/6009e5G7J
