@geekwire was the first publication my boss told me to read when I wanted to get into tech.

Fast forward to this morning and it's surreal to be featured in an article and podcast episode with them.

Thanks to Todd Bishop for the feature and @accenture for the opportunity.

You can check out the full article or listen to the conversation on GeekWire.

And let me know your biggest takeaway in the comments.

Reshare if you agree that AI is not & should not be the strategy.

Without vision, AI is just another tool.

I had a blast sharing Future Solving with 60 @microsoft and @accenture execs in Bellevue last night.

Thank you to Accenture & @geekwire for hosting me and featuring Autonomous Transformation in your Agents of Transformation series.

Having worked at both Accenture & Microsoft, it was a full circle home-turf moment and a delightful surprise to see so many familiar faces.

When Bill Belichick famously spiked a Microsoft Surface tablet as the New England Patriots head coach in 2016, the moment was a symbol of frustration with technology on the sidelines.

But inside the company, it actually became a point of pride. Thomas Labuzienski, a senior partnerships manager at Microsoft, shared the rest of the story with us this week: the Belichick device made it back to the company — where testing showed, amazingly, that it still worked.

That rugged (and apparently indestructible) hardware remains the tech giant’s most visible presence on NFL game days. But these days, the action is inside: Copilot, AI agents, and live data tools that are changing how coaches, players, and scouts prepare and compete.

That was one of the takeaways from an event Wednesday at Seattle’s Lumen Field, where Microsoft walked content creators and this reporter through some of its latest NFL technology. High above the field, social media and YouTube influencers posed for photos and selfies with a Microsoft Surface Copilot+ PC much like NFL fans would with their favorite players.

It was an off-season glimpse into the evolution of Microsoft’s partnership with the league, which started in 2013 and was extended last summer to go deeper on AI and cloud tools.

We took this week’s GeekWire Podcast on the road —  or more precisely, the rails — recording on Sound Transit’s 2 Line as we rode the world’s first light rail on a floating bridge from Seattle’s Northgate neighborhood to Microsoft’s campus in Redmond.

Along the way, we talked tech news, chatted with fellow passengers, and got a behind-the-scenes explanation of the engineering from Sound Transit’s Henry Bendon.

After arriving in Redmond, we sat down with Microsoft President Brad Smith to talk about the company’s two-decade role in making the Crosslake Connection a reality, and attempted to stump him with a special version of the GeekWire Trivia Challenge.
