Nathan Myhrvold may be the closest thing we have to a modern-day Renaissance man. A cofounder, inventor, chef, photographer, dinosaur hunter, author and former Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft, Nathan infuses creativity and innovation into everything he does. Nathan and Adam dive into the science behind the creative process, discussing what it takes to spark imagination and fight groupthink. Nathan also shares his experience working with Stephen Hawking, and why he believes that an idea is only as good as its execution.

Hi, I'm Belovel Sudhu, host of ted's newest podcast, the TED AI show, where I talk with the world's leading experts, artists, journalists to help you live and thrive in a world where AI is changing everything.
I'm stoked to be working with IBM, our official sponsor for this episode.
In a recent report published by the IBM Institute of Business Value.
Among those surveyed, one in three companies pause an AI use case after the pilot phase and we've all been there, right?
You get hyped about the possibilities of AI, spin up a bunch of these pilot projects and then, crickets.
Those pilots are trapped in silos, your resources are exhausted and scaling feels daunting.
What if instead of hundreds of pilots, you had a holistic strategy that's built to scale?
That's what IBM can help with.
They have 65,000 consultants with generative AI expertise who can help you design, integrate and optimize AI solutions.
