#81 Kurt Hatlevik (Inspirit365)

In this episode, we speak with Kurt Hatlevik, Principal Architect at a inspirit365 and long-time Microsoft MVP, live from the Dynamics Minds conference. 

Kurt shares why commerce and e-commerce are where business value becomes real cash, and how AI is already transforming product data, purchasing experiences, and customer interactions. 

He explains why companies should not wait for perfect data before getting started with AI, but instead improve iteratively and build momentum early. 

The conversation also explores trust in AI, the risks of advertising-driven models, and Kurt’s thought-provoking idea of “business anarchy,” where unchecked AI usage can weaken governance and alignment. 

Along the way, Kurt also shares his love for Norway’s nature, mushrooms, and why he remains optimistic about the future of AI in business.
