I spoke with Tim McIntire, EVP and CTO, Hyland on The Ravit Show about one of the biggest questions enterprises are facing today: how to scale AI agents responsibly and effectively!!!!Tim shared that the real challenge is not just building the agents, but preparing the right foundation for them to operate at scale. Without trusted data and thoughtful governance, AI agents risk creating more problems than they solve.Hyland is working with customers to put that foundation in place, ensuring AI agents are embedded into workflows in a way that augments people rather than replaces them. The focus is on collaboration between humans and agents, not competition.Looking ahead, Tim sees AI agents becoming much more integrated into day-to-day operations within the next one to two years. Success will come to those enterprises that can strike the right balance: equipping agents with data they can trust, while maintaining transparency and control for the humans who rely on them.The future of AI is not just about agents running faster, it is about building systems where people and AI can work better together.I can't wait to meet again at the COMMUNITYLIVE next week in Vegas!!!!#data #ai #ai4 #hyland #theravitshow

Guest post by Sara Daw, who is Group CEO of The CFO Centre and The Liberti Group, and the author of Strategy and Leadership as Service - How the Access Economy Meets the C-Suite, which explores the fractional leadership trend. For technology SMEs, scaling quickly is often a race against both market disruption and well-funded Big Tech rivals. Building the right executive team to support that growth is one of the toughest challenges founders face. Fractional Leaders Are Helping Technology Recruiting a full-time C-suite can be a huge financial commitment and, in many cases, unnecessary when the immediate need is targeted expertise. Instead of over-investing too early, many technology SMEs are turning to fractional executives. These are high-calibre leaders who work with multiple companies on a part-time or flexible basis. Many fractional leaders come from senior roles in established organisations and have chosen portfolio careers for greater variety and autonomy. They bring a wealth of experience across functions such as technology, finance, marketing, people, and sales. The result is specialist support delivered at the right time and in the right measure to help ambitious SMEs grow. Why Tech SMEs Are Turning to Fractional Leadership The pressure points for technology SMEs are particularly acute. Founders often face the challenge of scaling products and infrastructure without building up costly technical debt. They must also manage compliance and cybersecurity risks, compete for specialist talent in an overheated market, and build repeatable go-to-market strategies to accelerate growth. Fractional leaders can address these needs directly. A fractional CTO might oversee the design of a tech stack that scales effectively with demand. A fractional CISO can establish the security frameworks that win enterprise-level contracts. A fractional CMO has the experience to shape digital growth engines and product-led marketing strategies. A fractional CHRO ensures the organisation can attract and retain the right talent despite the pull of Big Tech employers. Unlike large corporates that can afford full-time hires for every executive seat, SMEs can access the same calibre of leadership in a way that matches their budgets and growth stages. Supporting Scale-Ups Through Growth Stages Most SMEs that engage fractional leaders are in the early growth or scale-up stage. More than seventy per cent of fractional executives work with scale-up clients where founders are often wearing multiple hats. It is common to see a founder acting as both product visionary and chief technology officer while also juggling fundraising and business development. Fractional leaders relieve that pressure. By taking on defined executive responsibilities, they free up founders to focus on long-term strategy and innovation. The relationship is highly flexible. Some companies require only a day a month while others need several days each week. The involvement can be scaled up or down as growth accelerates, giving SMEs the agility that traditional full-time hires cannot match. Building Stronger, More Integrated Leadership Fractional leadership is most powerful when executives collaborate across functions. For example, a fractional CFO ensures that marketing and technology investments are funded in a sustainable way. A fractional CTO makes sure that the technology roadmap is aligned with both sales and product goals. A fractional CMO coordinates campaigns with product launches and hiring cycles. This integrated approach reduces risk, speeds execution, and brings clarity to scaling plans. SMEs also benefit from the broader perspective that fractional leaders bring. Their work across multiple clients gives them access to sector insights, benchmarks, and industry networks that a single full-time hire may not be able to provide. The rise of fractional leadership marks a major shift in how technology SMEs access executive expertise. As of January 2025, more than one hundred and...

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Sara Mikulski, CTO at Kingstone Insurance about the moment in her career that convinced her that the claims ecosystem could be rebuilt around a single, trusted data spine. KEY TAKEAWAYS When I started my career success looked like stabilisation: Getting to a point where we all understand what's happening in which system, where the data is, and just make it work. It wasn't a long-term scalable solution, but I didn't want to come into the organisation and disrupt it. It wasn't ready yet, the first 18 months was about learning what was working and what wasn't before making a move to address the concerns and questions in a scalable way. Between then and now we've changed the entire platform and focussed on ensuring that there were good processes that were understood, good data in the right places so that we could have more automation and potential for AI in the future. This has made our adjustors so happy, as well as us from an IT perspective where it's easier to maintain, help and administer, etc. A lot of AI initiatives that are large and impact your core systems don't always go as expected. The biggest learning we've had, as an organisation, over the last year was to not run before you can walk. Sometimes you think AI can fix the problem or the process, but when you start to talk it through or dissect it, you find out you could simply tweak the system to be better for the people using it or explore a different way of doing the process. BEST MOMENTS ‘There were less emotional decisions in the first place because we took our time and really thought things through.' ‘You have to focus on how to make that one place your place – making sure the data that in there is clean, true, what data is there, what data your adjustors need to go outside of the system for and why.' ‘Efficiency is king right now, which is why AI is getting such a movement behind it; you're trying to find places where you don't have to do something manually, or something that takes hours and condensing it to seconds.' ‘AI will play an enormous role in current and future processes at all insurance carriers, but you still have to go back to the basics and figure out if you're just trying to put a band aid on the problem or if you're trying to solve it long-term.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Sara Mikulski is Chief Technology Officer at Kingstone Insurance and is responsible for managing our IT organization and accountable for the company's systems and data strategy, IT security, infrastructure, development, support, and vendor management. Sara brings 15+ years of experience in the IT arena, leading effective teams and enhancing IT operations. Most recently, she was the Deputy CIO at UPC Insurance, where she was responsible for the delivery of numerous projects aimed at consolidation of platforms and reduction of technical debt.

The technological landscape is evolving at breakneck speed, and AI stands at the forefront of this transformation. But how can HR professionals and business leaders navigate this new terrain effectively?Dr. Keith Duggar, CTO of X-Ray and co-host of Machine Learning Street Talk, brings clarity to this complex topic through a lens shaped by his fascinating career trajectory. From his roots in chemical engineering to high-frequency trading on Wall Street, then to Microsoft, and now leading an innovative AI startup, Dr. Duggar offers practical wisdom for organizations grappling with AI adoption.His company, X-Ray Glass, emerged from a deeply human need – creating augmented reality subtitles for those with hearing impairments. This mission of "subtitling life" exemplifies how AI can enhance human connection rather than diminish it. Through this work, Dr. Duggar has developed invaluable mental models for understanding large language models that cut through the hype and confusion."They're order of magnitude more efficient search engines," Dr. Duggar explains, while cautioning about their limitations, particularly hallucinations – convincingly wrong information that can appear authoritative. His advice? Approach AI as an interactive dialogue, start simple, refine iteratively, and always verify critical information through traditional sources.Looking ahead, Dr. Duggar envisions a shift toward "constellations of narrow intelligences" rather than ever-larger general models, with specialized AI tools working in concert to solve complex problems. For organizations seeking to harness AI's potential, he recommends practical approaches like hackathons and workshops alongside robust governance frameworks addressing privacy and misinformation risks.Whether you're an AI skeptic or enthusiast, this conversation offers a balanced perspective on embracing innovation while mitigating risk.

Bernie Maloney: Problems vs. Solutions: The Great Product Owner Distinction Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: The Strategic Problem Solver Bernie describes an exemplary Product Owner from a stealth program sponsored by a CTO, where the company needed to create new intellectual property. This Great Product Owner understood that Agile operates in three dimensions: most organizations only focus on outputs and delivery (first dimension), some reach outcomes (second dimension), but the truly great ones operate in the third dimension of strategic or business agility - defining problems worth solving. This Product Owner knew that high-performing teams need to understand what problem is worth solving rather than just receiving solutions to build. They embraced the Mobius loop approach, focusing on discovering the right problems rather than jumping straight to solutions. In this segment, we refer to the Mobius Loop, and to Steve Blank's work on the job of a startup.  We also refer to the episode with Elliott Parker on the critical importance of the “startup mindset” to foster innovation in larger organizations.  The Bad Product Owner: The Backlog Jockey with Authority Issues Bernie identifies the anti-pattern of Product Owners being treated as mere "backlog jockeys" by their organizations, which forces them into solution-building mode rather than problem-solving mode. These Product Owners don't understand the importance of saying "no" and lack clarity about intent and goals. The worst case Bernie encountered was a team manager who also served as Product Owner, wielding positional authority that shut down team communication. This person would interrupt daily scrums, causing teams to revert to waiting for direction rather than self-organizing. The combination of unclear intent and positional authority creates a toxic environment that destroys team autonomy and psychological safety. Self-reflection Question: Is your Product Owner focused on defining problems worth solving, or are they primarily managing a backlog of predetermined solutions?

We talk a lot about AI as if it can fix broken systems. But what happens when the underlying data is too messy, too slow, or too disconnected to support anything useful? That's the problem Manish Sood, founder and CTO of Reltio, has spent the last decade working to solve. Reltio is not your average data company. It sits behind some of the world's most recognisable brands, helping names like L'Oréal, Pfizer, HP, and CarMax modernise how they manage and activate data across the business. What they all share is a recognition that outdated systems and disconnected records don't just slow down insights. They actively block innovation. Manish breaks this down with uncommon clarity. He calls it “data debt”—the invisible burden of stale, incomplete, or fragmented information that quietly kills speed and adds risk. It's not just a technical problem. It's a leadership challenge, especially as businesses adopt generative AI tools that rely on clean, contextual data to function reliably. We explore how real-time intelligence is changing the way companies operate across customer experience, fraud detection, and supply chain resilience. Manish shares examples from enterprise clients who have moved from legacy systems to unified platforms, and how that shift enabled smarter decision-making at scale. From personalised retail offers to proactive healthcare outreach, the stories point to one common truth: if the data isn't trusted, the AI cannot be either. There's also a new role emerging inside many companies—the data steward as AI enabler. These are the people ensuring that data isn't just stored, but shaped. Human-guided, explainable, traceable. That clarity is key to responsible AI, especially in sectors where compliance and reputation are tightly linked. Manish also explains how Reltio's platform helps businesses protect against AI vulnerabilities by enabling resilient data pipelines, consistent governance, and real-time monitoring. In a world where data is created and used simultaneously, batch syncing is not enough. Real-time pipelines give companies the confidence to experiment with AI without falling into chaos. If your business is chasing innovation without cleaning up its data layer first, this conversation is a wake-up call. Manish shows that the future of AI isn't about who builds the best model. It's about who feeds it the best foundation. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

Yoav Oz is the Co-Founder and CEO of Rep AI, the conversational commerce platform giving online shoppers the kind of guided experience you'd expect from an in-store salesperson.The spark came from Yoav's own frustration: landing on ecommerce sites where he was ready to buy but stuck with eight pages of product copy and no one to answer his questions. Call centers felt broken. Chatbots felt generic. Out of that gap came Rep,  short for “representative”: an AI sales assistant trained to step in at the exact right moment, with the context of everything a shopper has clicked, viewed, or abandoned.Yoav isn't building alone. Alongside him is Shauli Mizrahi, Rep's CTO and co-founder, who brings years of experience in behavioral AI. Together, they've built a tool that doesn't just cut support costs: it upsells, converts hesitant browsers, and helps brands maximize the traffic they've already paid to bring in.Their story blends SaaS know-how with ecommerce scrappiness: from proving AI could act like a real salesperson, to showing how conversational data can optimize entire funnels, to scaling integrations that slot into any brand's existing stack.Whether you're running a DTC store, trying to push up average order value, or rethinking how AI fits into your tech stack, Yoav shares a candid look at why the ecommerce funnel is broken and how Rep AI is working to fix it.In This Conversation We Discuss: [00:48] Intro[01:22] Sharing career paths before entrepreneurship[03:23] Bridging gaps between chatbots and consumers[07:01] Shifting mindset from support to revenue[08:33] Training AI with millions of conversations[12:55] Optimizing websites beyond guesswork[15:41] Creating experiences that drive purchases[17:16] Personalizing offers beyond discounts[18:11] Customizing tone of voice for every brandResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeeCommerce shopping AI agent www.hellorep.ai/Follow Yoav Oz linkedin.com/in/yoavozFollow Shauli Mizrahi linkedin.com/in/shaulimizrachyIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

Up first, the ASW news of the week. At Black Hat 2025, Doug White interviews Ted Shorter, CTO of Keyfactor, about the quantum revolution already knocking on cybersecurity's door. They discuss the terrifying reality of quantum computing's power to break RSA and ECC encryption—the very foundations of modern digital life. With 2030 set as the deadline for transitioning away from legacy crypto, organizations face a race against time. Ted breaks down what "full crypto visibility" really means, why it's crucial to map your cryptographic assets now, and how legacy tech—from robotic sawmills to outdated hospital gear—poses serious risks. The interview explores NIST's new post-quantum algorithms, global readiness efforts, and how Keyfactor's acquisitions of InfoSec Global and Cipher Insights help companies start the quantum transition today—not tomorrow. Don't wait for the breach. Watch this and start your quantum strategy now. If digital trust is the goal, cryptography is the foundation.

In this must-watch conversation, Seemant reveals how his groundbreaking approach, Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV), flips the script on traditional defense-heavy security strategies. Instead of drowning in 10,000+ “critical” alerts, AEV pinpoints what actually matters—using Generative AI to map realistic attack paths, visualize kill chains, and identify the exact vulnerabilities that put an organization's crown jewels at risk. From his days leading cybersecurity at a major global bank to pioneering near real-time CVE validation, Seemant shares insights on scaling offensive security, improving executive buy-in, and balancing automation with human expertise. Whether you're a CISO, SOC analyst, red teamer, or security enthusiast, this interview delivers actionable strategies to fight fatigue, prioritize risks, and protect high-value assets. Key topics covered: - The truth about alert fatigue & why it's crippling SOC efficiency - How AI-driven offensive security changes the game - Visualizing kill chains to drive faster remediation - Why fixing “what matters” beats fixing “everything” - The future of AI trust, transparency, and control in cybersecurity Watch now to discover how BreachLock is redefining offensive security for the AI era.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1141: Tesla drops a philosophy-heavy master plan that barely mentions EVs. Palmer Luckey becomes the first to fly the Jetson One eVTOL. And McKinsey pushes back on AI job fears with a boost in entry-level hiring.Tesla's “Master Plan Part IV” is here, and it might just be the most philosophical of the bunch. With barely a mention of actual cars, the company appears to be pivoting hard toward artificial intelligence, humanoid robots, and an ambitious goal they call “sustainable abundance.”The document positions Tesla as a leader in building tools that "bring AI into the physical world."The original "Master Plans" outlined clear goals: launch EVs, scale production, and push solar. Fewer than 200 words of Part IV reference Tesla's current or future products, with humanoid robot Optimus taking center stage.The plan leans heavily into themes like "Growth is infinite" and "Innovation removes constraints" instead of product roadmaps.Electric vehicles are only mentioned in the context of the past; the future is autonomy, labor automation, and AI computing.Musk has said Tesla's humanoid robots will account for “~80% of Tesla's long-term value.”Tech founder Palmer Luckey just became the first customer to take delivery of the Jetson One — a personal electric aircraft that doesn't even require a pilot's license. And yes, he took it for a spin.The Oculus and Anduril founder lifted off in Carlsbad, CA after just 50 minutes of training.Jetson One is a $128,000 single-seat eVTOL with 20-minute flight time and 63 mph top speed.Luckey's flight kicks off Jetson's official global rollout; 2025 and 2026 models are already sold out.Jetson's CTO says their goal is to “move ground-based transportation up to the air.”At a time when many fear AI will make junior roles obsolete, McKinsey is leaning in the opposite direction. The firm announced it plans to grow North American hiring by 12% in 2026, with a focus on entry-level talent — especially those fluent in emerging tech.McKinsey currently employs 5,000–7,000 non-partners in North America and could grow that number by up to 20% in five years.North America chair Eric Kutcher values younger workers' fluency in tech: “The 20-year-old econ major… is way more in tune.”Kutcher emphasized that while AI may improve efficiency, it frees up teams to pursue growth initiatives — not layoffs.Many CEOs aren't excited by cost-cutting; they're eager to redirect resources toward new opportunities, he noted.“What we will work on will still require the same level of intellect… doing the things that you can't do with machines,” said Kutcher.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In “AI Literacy in Logistics with Gather AI's Andrew Hoffman”, Joe Lynch and Andrew Hoffman, CTO at Gather AI, discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming warehouse operations by using visual data from drones and other machines to identify issues, suggest next steps, and ultimately improve efficiency and accuracy. About Andrew Hoffman Andrew Hoffman is the Chief Technical Officer at Gather.ai, an AI-powered intralogistics optimization firm that empowers 3PLs, manufacturers, and retailers to improve margins and on-time order fulfillment in the widest range of logistics environments - from ambient to cold chain storage. Andrew has technical and leadership experience scaling supply chain-focused robotics companies from founding to exit, with over 20 patents in logistics, robotics, and robot coordination.

About Gather AI Gather AI is an intralogistics AI company which collects visual data from drones, forklifts, and connected machines, integrates it with warehouse management systems (WMS) and cloud platforms, and uses AI to identify issues and suggest next steps. Key Takeaways: AI Literacy in Logistics In “AI Literacy in Logistics with Gather AI's Andrew Hoffman”, Joe Lynch and Andrew Hoffman, CTO at Gather AI, discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming warehouse operations by using visual data from drones and other machines to identify issues, suggest next steps, and ultimately improve efficiency and accuracy. AI as a Co-Pilot, Not a Replacement: The podcast reframes artificial intelligence as a collaborative tool that amplifies human capability. Much like a calculator assists a mathematician, AI acts as a "co-pilot" in the warehouse, providing real-time data and insights that enable staff to work more efficiently and accurately. Demystifying Core Concepts: The discussion breaks down key industry terms, clarifying the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) (the broad field of intelligent machines) and machine learning (ML) (the specific technique of systems learning from data). It also defines computer vision as the ability of a machine to "see" and interpret a warehouse environment. Proven ROI and Real-World Results: The episode highlights a concrete case study with Stadium Goods, a customer of Gather AI. By using the company's solution, they increased inventory accuracy to over 99%, reduced "inventory shrink" from 2% to a fraction of a percent, and saved over $200,000 by eliminating manual counting. Actionable Insights from Data: The conversation explains that AI systems learn from data over time, allowing them to transform complex data queries into natural language questions. This helps warehouse staff make better decisions on the fly, such as locating a specific pallet or finding an empty space in an aisle. The Collaborative "Agent": The concept of an "agent" in AI is reframed from a technical term to a collaborative entity. Gather AI's system—the drone, software, and computer vision—works as a partner to the warehouse staff, providing the data needed for faster, more accurate decisions and freeing up employees for more valuable tasks. A Leader with a Track Record of Innovation: Andrew Hoffman's background as a founding engineer at two logistics robotics companies, both later acquired by Amazon, establishes his deep expertise. His journey offers valuable insight into the past and future of scaling technology in the supply chain industry. A Clear Path to Getting Started with AI: For listeners looking to begin their AI journey, the podcast recommends starting with a pilot project to solve one specific problem, such as cycle counting. It also advises seeking partners who offer a comprehensive solution and a clear path to return on investment, rather than just a technology.
