And that's all done automatically in like five seconds that John got a response back.

We're starting to build into delay so people don't freak out because if it's too fast, people are like, I'm eccentric.

Welcome to Geekwire.

I'm Todd Bishop.

Today we are bringing you an insider's view of the realities and the potential of AI from the perspective of a serial entrepreneur with deep insights into this moment in tech history,

what's really happening in the current wave

of AI and what's coming next. David Schim is the co-founder and CEO of Seattle startup, Reed

AI, and he sat down with GeekWires John Cook for an in-depth discussion about how AI is reshaping productivity and modern work.

This conversation was recorded October 16, 2025 in Bellevue, Washington, at a dinner event

that we hosted in partnership with Accenture in conjunction with Geekwire's new Agents of

Transformation editorial series exploring the coming wave of AI.

With that, here's John.

A big thanks to Accenture for their ongoing partnership with us at Geekwire.

We kicked off a really cool series late last year that ran into this year, where we celebrated Microsoft's 50th anniversary

and Accenture was the key partner on that project with us led into a fantastic event that we

had earlier this year with Steve Balmer, Nathan Mirable, Brad Smith, and others. It was just a

fantastic event. So big thanks to Accenture. I'm also excited to announce that next week on

Gateway, we're kicking off an editorial series called Agents of Transformation, where we're going to

look at the Agentic Web and how AI is transforming work and industry. And this is also presented

in partnership with Accenture. That's going to lead into an event that we host in the first quarter.
