Author: Venkata"Raghu Banda" June 20, 2025 Duration: 1:06:23

What happens when a master craftsman challenges the rise of artificial intelligence—not with code, but with conviction?

In this Season 14 premiere of XTrawAI, host Raghu Banda sits down with Casey Putsch—automotive visionary, racing driver, and founder of Genius Garage—to unpack the good, the bad, and the brutally honest about AI, technology, and the future of human creativity.

🎯 In this episode:

  • Why Casey believes hands-on ingenuity still matters more than ever in the AI age

  • A candid take on the cultural shift toward automation—and what we might be losing

  • Stories from the racetrack, the garage, and beyond that challenge how we define “intelligence”

🎧 Tune in to hear an unfiltered, high-octane conversation that questions the hype and reclaims the hum
