Episode description

Devin talks with Bernadette Berger, Director of Innovation at Alaska Airlines, about the future of air travel. Bernadette is a self professed air plane nerd and has over a decade of experience designing the aircraft architecture of some of the world's largest commercial jets. The two discuss solving baggage anxiety, which tasks are still better suited to humans versus AI, and what raising a toddler can teach you about business leadership. And yes, “haba maba” comes up – it’s not just baby talk.
