Brian previews Tech Trends 2027, warning CIOs about rising insider threats enabled by AI wearables and prediction markets, faster AI-assisted vulnerability exploitation that makes weekly/monthly patching obsolete, and geopolitical uncertainty affecting procurement of frontier AI services. Alex highlights SAS's second annual Data and AI Impact Report, showing organizations with strong governance, data quality, and auditability achieve at least double the AI ROI, while only 19.3% of Canadian respondents expect strong returns despite a rising AI trustworthiness index and growing compliance concerns. Jim also discusses research suggesting Americans spend about eight hours online daily and offers tactics to reduce screen-time triggers, followed by an afterword conversation reflecting on the show's origins, production challenges, milestones, and what the hosts do now. 00:00 2500th Episode Kickoff 01:18 Tech Trends 2027 Preview 02:11 Insider Threats and Wearables 03:31 AI Vulnerability Management 04:44 Geopolitics and Procurement 05:35 SAS Trust and ROI Report 07:51 Online Time and Attention Economy 11:24 Reclaiming Screen Time 12:15 Social Media Reflections 13:40 Afterword Trending Origins 19:51 Favorite Memories and Mishaps 24:01 Where They Are Now 29:15 Final Sign Offs","meta_description":"On the 2,500th episode of Hashtag Trending (Thursday, September 17), host Jim Love welcomes former hosts and tech journalists Brian Jackson and Alex Coop.…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1793,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hashtag-trending-1010702/episodes/hashtag-trending-2-500th-episode-tech-trends-2027-trustworthy-ai-roi-and-the-attention-economy-with-brian-jackson-alex-coop/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hashtag-trending-1010702/hashtag-trending-2-500th-episode-tech-trends-2027-trustworthy-ai-roi-and-the-attention-economy-with-brian-jackson-alex-coop.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
