Our guests this week: Adam Brotman and Andy Sack, co-authors of the book AI First: The Playbook for a Future-Proof Business and Brand.

Brotman was Starbucks’ chief digital officer and later co-CEO of J.Crew. Sack is a founder, investor, and longtime advisor to tech leaders. Together, they run Forum3, a company that helps brands rethink loyalty and customer engagement.

Their book argues the winners in this era will be truly AI first — human plus machine, copilots and agents baked into the work. We’ll talk about their ‘holy-shit’ moment with Sam Altman, the banker who did a week’s work in less than two days, and what leaders should actually be doing.

With GeekWire co-founder Todd Bishop.
