What is the AI-First Business Podcast about?
What does it really take to make AI a core part of how a business works?
The AI-First Business Podcast spotlights the founders and operators leading the AI-native era. We don’t chase trends—we dissect the decisions behind scalable tech, fast execution, and real outcomes. Built for builders, not spectators.


Host

I'm Tina Yazdi, the host of The AI-First Business Podcast. I help companies cut through AI hype to build real business value.
I've spent the last decade scaling tech companies across Europe—from leading commercial teams at Miro to driving enterprise growth at Amplitude. Now I work with fast-growing companies at Databricks on data strategies that actually unlock AI capabilities.
I also studied Artificial Intelligence and Theory of the Mind at the University of Toronto, which shaped my fascination with both the technical possibilities of AI and the human dynamics that determine whether it works.
The AI-First Business Podcast exists because too many people talk about AI, but few are building with it strategically. I interview the operators who are—no theory, just the moves that scale.
