Jeff Bussgang is a general partner at Flybridge Capital Partners and teaches entrepreneurship at Harvard Business School. When he’s not helping his students become future founders, he’s writing books. His latest, The Experimentation Machine, is a guide for founders looking to leverage AI in their startups. In this episode, we surface practical strategies founders can implement today, explore what it means to build an AI-native company, and discuss how to scale without growing. Plus, we take a closer look at recent AI-related deals between the U.S. and Gulf countries — and what they mean for the global AI race — with Fortune’s AI editor, Jeremy Kahn.

At the center of AI is people, so we want to hear from you! Share your experiences with AI — or ask us a burning question — by leaving a voicemail at 601-633-2424. Your voice could be featured in a future episode!
