Welcome to the Artificial Intelligence Podcast with Jonathan Green! In this episode, we delve into the art of cost reduction and its intersection with AI, featuring our special guest, Larry Levine, from P3 Cost Analysts. Larry has extensive experience in helping businesses reduce their indirect vendor overcharges, a crucial aspect often overlooked by many companies.
Larry introduces us to the concept of indirect vendor costs, which include expenses for telecom, utilities, waste, insurance, and property tax—costs that are often seen as non-negotiable. With a unique industry insights approach, Larry demonstrates how many of these costs can be negotiated down, sometimes by up to 75%, offering substantial savings for businesses.
Notable Quotes:
- "It's really about discovering the right way to lower costs effectively, knowing what to ask for, and having the industry knowledge to back it up." - [Larry Levine]
- "Every business, whether a startup or an established entity, should embrace the mindset that costs are negotiable." - [Larry Levine]
- "AI might be the frontier, but cost efficiency is the foundation every business should secure." - [Jonathan Green]
Larry provides valuable insights into how businesses can maintain efficiency, especially in a tech-driven world where AI tools are rapidly embraced but not always cost-effective. He emphasizes the importance of having the right mindset when approaching vendors and the potential pitfalls of assuming costs are fixed.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
