Raw Data with Rob Collie A Lifelong Learner Embraces AI, w/Brian Julius
This week on Raw Data, Justin's flying solo and catching up with Brian Julius, a true data veteran with a unique journey from government work to AI exploration. Brian's path has been anything but typical. Starting in high-stakes federal roles, he later moved into management; only to find himself pulled back to his roots in hands-on analytics, just as AI started turning the industry on its head.
Brian digs into the moments that shaped his career and how curiosity led him back to data. Now, he's diving into AI, pushing the tools to see how far they can go, and discovering where human intuition still has the edge. In this conversation, he and Justin explore what it means to keep evolving in a field that doesn't stand still, and why staying open and curious might just be the most important skill.
With Rob away this week, Justin and Brian take a deeper dive into what it's like to adapt to constant change, and why there's more to data than just knowing the latest tools. It's an honest, down-to-earth look at the power of a lifelong learner's mindset in an era of rapid transformation.
