What will the world look like in three years? In Episode 5 of Season 2 of Aideation, we talk with Prof. Gal Chechik, Director of AI Research at NVIDIA Israel and Professor of Computer Science at Bar-Ilan University, to explore where we currently are, and what’s coming.
Gal has spent over two decades shaping the frontier of AI, from his PhD at the Hebrew University and postdoc at Stanford, to leading research teams at Google and now at NVIDIA. His team in Israel works on learning from small data, visual content generation, reinforcement learning, and the interface between AI and the physical world.
In this ‘glimpse into the future’ episode, we ask:
- What surprised even Gal in recent AI breakthroughs?- What are the hottest trends in reasoning, simulation, and physical agents?- Will AI be able to operate in the real world as easily as it chats with us?- And where should today’s entrepreneurs be building?
From LLMs to robotics, from productivity to intuition - this is a conversation about what’s changing, what’s coming, and what could end up surprising us all.

Joining us is Michael Maoz, SVP of Innovation Strategy at Salesforce.
Michael shares his views from inside one of the world’s leading enterprise software companies - where agentic AI is being explored as the next wave in CRM, customer service, and more.

Early-stage founders often hesitate to engage with consulting firms and integrators, concerned about the frictions of such a partnership, the need for customization and the distance from the end user. But in the GenAI era, should startups jump in?
In this episode of Aideation, meets Ben Ellencweig, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company and Global Leader of QuantumBlack (AI by McKinsey), to explore how professional services can shift from being a an ancillary go-to-market channel for later stage startups, to - potentially - a strategic multiplier for early stage ones.
