Professor - AI at University of South-Eastern Norway and Founder & CEO of Newcode.ai | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/magedhelmy/⬥HOST⬥Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥Agentic AI is rapidly moving from theoretical promise to practical implementation, and few sectors are feeling this shift as acutely as the legal industry. In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity, Sean Martin is joined by Frida Torkelsen, a Solution Architect, and Maged Helmy, a professor of AI, to explore how law firms and in-house counsel are applying AI agents to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and unlock strategic capabilities—while navigating critical privacy and security concerns.Frida explains how large firms are seeking to extract value from their troves of historical legal data through bespoke AI agents designed to automate workflows and improve institutional knowledge sharing. Smaller firms, on the other hand, benefit by building narrow, purpose-driven agents that automate core functions and give them a tactical edge. This democratization of capability—fueled by faster iteration and reduced development cost—could be a strategic win for niche firms that are disciplined in their focus.Maged emphasizes the architectural shift AI agents introduce. Unlike static queries to large language models with fixed knowledge, agents access tools, data, and live systems to execute tasks dynamically. This expands the use case potential—but also the risk. Because agentic systems operate probabilistically, consistent outputs aren't guaranteed, and testing becomes more about evaluating outcomes across a range of inputs than expecting deterministic results.Security risk looms large. Maged shares how a single oversight in permissions allowed an agent to make system-wide changes that corrupted his environment. Frida cautions against over-permissive access, noting that agents tapping into shared calendars or HR databases must respect internal boundaries and compliance obligations. Both guests agree that human-in-the-loop validation is essential, especially in environments with strict data governance needs.Law firms must reassess both internal information architecture and team readiness before implementing agentic systems. Start with a clear understanding of the business problem, validate access scopes, and track outcomes for accuracy, speed, and cost. Legal tech teams are forming around these efforts, but success will depend on whether these roles stay grounded in solving specific legal problems—not chasing the latest AI trend.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥Newsletter: The Law's Great Recalibration: Inside the Tech-Driven Puzzle of Legal Firm Transformation: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/laws-great-recalibration-inside-tech-driven-puzzle-sean-martin-cissp-clnoe/⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:
我有個朋友,深信專業人士唔可能被 AI 取代,因為佢覺得:「你點都要搵啲人去負法律責任吖嘛;乜 AI 可以負責㗎咩?」首先,人類歷史好早就發明咗 legal person (法人)呢個概念,而「法人」係可以負責任嘅;更重要一點就係,好多責任都可以幻化成一個價錢牌。錢可以解決嘅問題,就唔係問題。專業責任保險嘅出現,未必解決到道德上責任嘅問題,但肯定處理到法律上同經濟上責任嘅問題。咁關 Agentic AI 乜事呢?最主要嘅關連係,Agentic AI 理論上可以為人類,亦即係 Principal (我亦做事主)去作出決定。先唔講 AI 去做決定會唔會好過人類(雖然我覺得絕大多數情況都會好過),但做決定就要負責任。好多人就話:「咁個責任邊個去負?」表面去睇好似好難去處理,但其實又唔係咁難;類似嘅情況就係一間企業嘅員工做錯事令顧客蒙受損失,咁邊個去負責任?法律上唔係處理唔到嘅問題。更重要係,呢啲責任絕對可以買到保險;AI 做決定出錯嘅機會率,一定有數得計。所以,一心諗住有個牌就唔會被 AI 取代嘅朋友,我勸大家都係諗清楚乜嘢為之責任。最後都係一直講個句,唔係 AI 取代人類,係識得用 AI 嘅人,取代啲以為自己份工同個專業身份好穩陣嘅人。 This is a public episode.

In this episode, we sat down with full-stack developer and AI innovator Matthew Henage, creator of WAOS.ai (Web App Operating System) and the incredible storytelling platform SpeakMagic.ai. This conversation took us deep into the world of agentic AI, low-code app building, and the future of intelligent workflows.We kicked things off with Matthew sharing how he's been riding the AI wave since GPT-3.5 blew his mind. His platform WoWs is all about making it easy for developers to build powerful web apps with embedded AI workflows — think of it like Zapier meets ChatGPT, but with agents working together instead of API chains.One of the most eye-opening parts of our chat was learning about agent swarms — essentially teams of specialized AI agents that collaborate to perform complex tasks. Instead of relying on one giant AI brain to do everything, you create smaller, purpose-built AIs that handle specific steps in a workflow. It's scalable, smarter, and kind of like assembling your dream dev team… but all made of code.Matthew's Speak Magic project is a jaw-dropper. It uses a swarm of over 40 agents to turn a single story idea into a fully animated, two-minute video — complete with scenes, scripts, character animations, music, and more. It's AI storytelling on steroids.We also talked a lot about:Best practices for building reliable AI workflowsThe importance of keeping context windows small (under 4,000 tokens works best!)How prompt engineering is becoming the new programmingUsing AI for vibe coding (yes, that's a thing) and rapid prototypingThe tradeoffs between using traditional programming vs. letting AI handle logicEthical considerations and how to handle memory and privacy in long-running user interactionsCheck out Matthew's work at WAOS.ai and speakmagic.ai — and as always, stay curious and keep building!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.

Deloitte AI360: A 360-degree view of AI topics in 360 seconds
Is regulation a blessing and a curse? Can liabilities become commercial assets? Deloitte's Financial Services AI Lead Ryan Lockard sheds light on the most intriguing real-world applications of AI in financial services, including one that shows why organizations are embracing agentic AI.
What is agentic AI? And why is it important? In this week's episode of the B2B Marketing Podcast, we spoke to Hut 3 about the very topic and how it can be implemented in the various ABM stages. We're joined by Darryl Merkli, Head of AI Studio & Services, Hut 3 and Andy Johnson, Founder and Director, Hut 3. The trio discuss everything from how Hut 3 built their own agentic AI workflows to striking the balance between the human touch and AI technology. Plus, if you want to find out Hut 3's top tips when it comes to AI data privacy, stay tuned until the very end.

What happens when automation grows and learns to think, reason, and adapt? That is precisely what I explored in today's episode with Bennet Kumar, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Business Process Services at Hexaware Technologies. As the enterprise world braces for rapid AI-driven change, Bennet joined me to unpack how agentic AI quietly transforms customer experience from the ground up. Bennet explains how agentic AI is fundamentally different from earlier forms of automation. We go beyond the buzzwords to explore how these intelligent systems retain business context, plan and execute tasks with autonomy, and collaborate with other agents to deliver meaningful outcomes. This isn't just a new toolset for organizations focused on ROI, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency. It is a new way of working. One of the most compelling parts of our conversation centered around AI-powered voice translation. Bennet clearly shows what happens when language ceases to be a barrier. Service agents are no longer required to be fluent in dozens of languages. Instead, they can focus on empathy, listening, and resolution while AI handles translation in real time. We also explore how these technologies reduce stress on customer service staff, giving them more meaningful roles and the tools to thrive. Of course, no digital transformation is complete without understanding the people behind it. Bennet shares thoughtful insights on change management, addressing customer trust and employee concerns. We discuss how AI can empower rather than replace, and why organizations must be intentional about communication, leadership development, and cultural shift. From multilingual support to hyper-personalized customer journeys, and AI assistants to back-end process orchestration, agentic AI is no longer a future concept. It is already here. But are enterprises prepared for a world where customers and AI agents interact seamlessly, at scale, daily? What does the rise of intelligent agents mean for your business?

On the 51st episode of Enterprise AI Innovators, host Evan Reiser (Abnormal AI) talks with Shyam Bhojwani, Chief Information Officer at Nextdoor. With millions of users across the U.S., the U.K., and Canada, Nextdoor is one of the largest neighborhood-based platforms in the world, connecting communities with real-time information, local recommendations, and public safety alerts. In this conversation, Shyam shares his perspective on how AI is shifting automation from static workflows to dynamic, context-aware agents, why IT and cybersecurity are prime candidates for fast AI wins, and how culture, architecture, and data readiness all shape the long-term success of enterprise transformation.Quick hits from Shyam:On unlearning in the age of AI: “Every day with AI is a new learning but also a lot of unlearning. What we thought wasn't possible yesterday is already possible today.”On the evolution from automation to agentic orchestration: “Earlier, you would sort of create static processes, step A, step B, step C. Now with AI, it can go from step A to step C based on context. These AI agents aren't just automating tasks, they're orchestrating workflows with real-time intelligence.On how to avoid AI chaos across teams: “There needs to be a centralized AI Ops team to connect the dots. Otherwise, every department ends up buying the same tool twice.”Recent Book Recommendation: The New Automation Mindset by Vijay Tella--Like what you hear?

Welcome to The Ecommerce Braintrust podcast, brought to you by Julie Spear, Head of Retail Marketplace Services, and Jordan Ripley, Director of Retail Operations. This is your April edition of the Retail Round-Up! In today's episode, we dive into the latest trends shaking up the retail media landscape, from AI-driven shopping innovations and Walmart's evolving media strategy to concerns about Prime Day restock limits and the ongoing impact of tariffs. The retail media space is moving fast, and there's no sign of slowing down. We're excited to welcome special first-time guest Shahrez Anjum, Senior Account Manager at Acadia, alongside our media expert and friend of the pod, Ross Walker, Director of Retail Media at Acadia. Tune in to stay ahead of the curve! KEY TAKEAWAYS In this episode, Julie, Jordan, Ross, and Shahrez discuss: Amazon recently introduced two major AI-driven features that signal a fundamental shift in how product discovery and shopping journeys will operate: Interests AI and Buy for Me. Interests AI is a product discovery tool that allows Amazon shoppers to enter detailed prompts reflecting their hobbies and passions. Buy for Me, currently in beta, uses agentic AI to place orders on third-party brand websites directly from the Amazon app. Amazon has introduced tighter control over off-site placements, which allows advertisers to manage their spend on external platforms more effectively. Walmart has made two significant updates to its media offering through Walmart Connect, adding Vizio inventory for media buying and the ability to do advanced targeting for on-site display ads. Amazon has made significant strides in simplifying and enhancing how advertisers can interact with its audience targeting capabilities, particularly by integrating AMC (Amazon Marketing Cloud) audiences into its ad console. Native Bid Boosters: Amazon is making it easier for advertisers to access and use audience segments directly within the ad console. The ongoing discussions around tariffs and their potential impact on retail prices have become a recurring topic in the e-commerce space, especially in relation to Amazon. As Prime Day approaches, concerns about restock limits and potential supply chain challenges are rising. In particular, there are indications that Amazon may reintroduce restock limits, a measure previously used to manage inventory flow.
As generative AI increasingly takes hold across the federal government, a class of that greater tech discipline called agentic AI is also gaining momentum. Think of it like an AI sidekick. Agentic AI moves beyond rules-based AI assistants of the past to act autonomously to accomplish something without the need for constant human intervention. According to Jonathan Alboum, federal CTO of ServiceNow and a former federal CIO at USDA, agentic AI holds massive potential for the future of the federal government, particularly amid the Trump administration's slashing of the federal workforce and placing a premium on efficiency. Alboum joins the podcast to discuss that, some exciting news from ServiceNow's Knowledge conference this week in Las Vegas and his thoughts on how federal CIOs are managing ongoing consolidation of federal IT programs. President Donald Trump's fiscal 2026 budget proposal would slash $491 million from the budget of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, according to a summary released Friday. That would amount to a nearly 17% reduction to the agency's approximately $3 billion budget. The administration did not release a detailed itemization of the cuts, only an outline. “The Budget refocuses CISA on its core mission — Federal network defense and enhancing the security and resilience of critical infrastructure — while eliminating weaponization and waste,” a summary reads. In broad strokes, if approved by Congress, the budget would target for reduction what it identified as “so-called” disinformation and misinformation programs and offices; “duplicative” programs of other programs at the state and federal level; “external engagement offices such as international affairs”; and consolidate “redundant security advisors and programs.” A startup founder and Department of Government Efficiency associate named Sam Corcos is the new chief information officer of the Treasury Department, according to a person within the agency. Corcos was introduced with that title at a recent meeting for Treasury bureau chief information officers, the person added. Corcos, who most recently helped create a health company called Levels, had been representing DOGE in the Treasury Department, with the official title of special advisor. Corcos, who has appeared on Fox News with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, has said his top priority is looking at the operations and maintenance budget, as well as modernization, at the IRS. He's also sought access to government data and, according to Wired, was involved in an effort to organize an IRS hackathon. The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Ivan Pylypchuk, the CEO of Softblues, and Olha Pylypchuk, the company’s COO. In today’s discussion, we’ll explore: What Agentic AI is and why it’s poised to disrupt traditional business processes, how Ivan and Olha are leveraging multi-agent systems to solve domain-specific challenges and deliver business transformation, and the future of AI agents and their role in shaping the workplace of tomorrow. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you talk about traditional AI systems, they can handle one simple, specific task, such as image recognition, data classification, content generation. Agentic AI is more autonomous and capable of complex decision making across multiple steps. Our approach is focussed on controlled, multi-agent systems. The biggest challenge companies face is collecting data and putting it together. Often, companies have their valuable data spread across different systems and departments, like customer databases, email records, business software. These don’t always talk to each other. To have an effective AI implementation, you must make sure that all this data is collected neatly and accurately. Surprisingly, some companies don’t know how their people work. When you observe their processes sometimes, they miss important details about their daily operations which can create a lot of wasted investment when we rectify these mistakes afterwards. That’s why we invest a lot of time work with and talking to the businesses about how their workflows move from point A to B. Then we can enhance them with the help of AI. How team members embrace this technology is very important. Even a perfect solution will fail it teams don’t use it. We create simple interfaces and make sure our systems explain their recommendations in plain language. This approach improves the understanding of how AI works dramatically and build trust. BEST MOMENTS ‘Agentic AI gives us scalability in different domains, explainability to understand what it’s doing, so we can provide the exact information that is needed across an organisation.’ ‘It’s important to start very small, on a piece of a project so the AI can show clearly its quick results. After the goal has been demonstrated, then we scale the solution.’ ‘Our recruitment solution help reduced time to hire by 60% and provided an increase in the quality of hires by 40%.’ ‘It gives you more time to do strategic work that brings more value to the business than managing this data.’ ABOUT THE GUEST Ivan Pylypchuk is the CEO and AI Solution Architect at Softblues, a company specializing in building multi-agent AI systems to tackle real-world business challenges. LinkedIn Olha Pylypchuk is the Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Softblues, where she drives operational excellence and spearheads AI-driven business automation initiatives.
