In this episode of the MilVet Podcast, host Beau Higgins is joined by Kevin Cornish, the founder and CEO of Moth + Flame, a groundbreaking company revolutionizing training through virtual reality. Kevin shares his journey from Hollywood to tech, detailing how he transitioned from aspiring filmmaker to leading a company at the forefront of AI and VR. He explains the power of immersive training experiences, particularly for the military and workforce development, and the benefits of using virtual reality for scenarios like suicide prevention, cultural training, and even aircraft maintenance.
As a self-proclaimed "Luddite" when it comes to technology, Beau learns from Kevin how VR is not just a futuristic concept but a practical, scalable tool already making a real impact. The conversation also explores the challenges and opportunities of bringing immersive tech into mainstream use, while debunking some of the myths and fears surrounding AI and VR. Whether you’re familiar with these technologies or just getting started, this episode offers an insightful look into the future of training and decision-making in high-pressure environments.
Tune in for an inspiring discussion on how VR is not just a tool, but a bridge to transforming how we learn, react, and make decisions.
