Dawid Naude, Founder and CEO of Pathfindr, one of Australia's leading AI innovation studios, joins Dom to make an intimidating subject feel exciting and human. AI is not coming, it is already here. What if being in your 40s or 50s is not a disadvantage? What if the experience, judgement and relationships you've spent decades building are exactly what make AI so powerful in your hands? They cover AI moving from adviser to operator, opportunities for small business, education, and why trust may become more valuable than ever.

AI confidence: what this conversation covers
- Years of judgement, relationships and problem-solving remain valuable in the AI era.
- The starting point is one real task you already have, not mastering everything.
- A simple first prompt: ask the tool for five questions before it answers.
- A short, low-stakes experiment is a less intimidating first step than a big plan.
