#408: Phil Tee on the future of the industry with AI and challenges of running a tech company

“We spend a lot of time talking, we talk to our customers, we talk internally, and we talk to our competitors because, at the end of the day, competitive advantage is perhaps more baked into what you do with knowledge, than the knowledge itself.”

Welcome to another episode of Shape of Work. In today’s episode, our guest talks about how AI will revolutionise the industry in the coming years and the customer community will help in the growth of the value of an organisation.
