Everything Is a Code Problem | Uri Eliabayev

Season 1 Episode 2 | Everything Is a Code Problem | Uri Eliabayev Founder of Israel's Biggest AI Community, on Why AI Strategy Is Really an Engineering Problem Uri Eliabayev, who founded Machine & Deep Learning Israel, now the country's largest AI community with tens of thousands of members, joins Sascha Poggemann to explain why he evaluates AI models on task-specific outcomes rather than benchmarks, and how reframing any problem as a code problem changes what teams believe is possible to automate. They also discuss why AI adoption succeeds fastest when it aligns with employees' own motivations rather than being mandated top-down, and why enterprises should embrace an iterative, patient approach instead of expecting one-shot results. 👉 NiCE:  https://www.nice.com 🔗Connect with Uri: https://www.linkedin.com/in/urieliabayev/ 🔗Machine & Deep Learning Isreal https://machinelearning.co.il/ 🔗Connect with Neeraj: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neerajsverma/ ____________________ 01:03 — Building Israel’s AI Community 05:33 — The Next AI Frontier 10:12 — Taking AI Into Production 14:01 — Making Enterprise AI Work 18:45 — AI Governance and Regulation 23:34 — Will AI Replace Jobs? 26:24 — Becoming Better With AI 29:32 — Getting Employees to Adopt AI _______________________ About Speak to an Agent: Speak to an Agent explores what it really takes to bring AI into large organizations, why AI can't fix a problem you haven't already solved, why real understanding matters more than a polished voice, and why the domain expert who knows how to use AI is becoming the most valuable person in the business.
