When I sat down with Lane Bess, CEO of Deep Instinct, and Dinakar Munagala, CEO of Blaize, I didn't expect the conversation to range from AI-powered cybersecurity to the challenges of edge computing and space travel. But that's what I love about these interviews — they're never just about business strategies or forecasting. They're about how leaders think, what drives them, and I get a bit of insight into their experiences as business leaders.

Lane runs Deep Instinct, a cybersecurity company using deep learning AI to prevent attacks before they occur. He talked about how "dark AI" is making prevention critical, as cyber threats evolve with frightening speed. Dinakar's company, Blaize, builds semiconductor chips for edge AI applications — essentially bringing the brainpower of AI directly to where data is captured. At least that's what my non-technological brain comprehended when he told me about it.
