We dive deep into the seductive promise and hidden costs of AI technology and the question that haunts every creative: what are we trading away for convenience? Through our exploration, we examine how tools shape not just what we make, but who we become in the process.We also wrestle with the tension between efficiency and authenticity, discussing everything from DV tape workflows to AI-generated content and the race to the bottom that threatens meaningful creation. This conversation challenges us to consider whether the magic intelligence in the cloud will free us to focus on what matters most, or whether we're surrendering the very friction and deliberateness that gives our work its soul. -Ai If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving us a rating and/or a review.

BEYOND TALENT ACQUISITION: LEADERSHIP SKILLS NEEDED TO EXPAND SCOPE Talent Acquisition was the optimal specialism in the People Ops function during the ZIRP of hyper growth; but what organisations needed in 2019 is not what organisations need in 2025.

In this solo episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry dives into the transformative role of AI voice agents in healthcare—specifically on the non-clinical, pre-arrival side of operations. Jerry shares his firsthand experience working with AI voice technology over the past year, detailing how it's reshaping patient intake, scheduling, benefit checks, and cost callbacks, without replacing human roles.Key Takeaways:- AI voice agents are revolutionizing pre-arrival workflows—but success hinges on understanding your practice's people, processes, and patient journey before implementing the tech. - Workflow is everything: AI should be strategically inserted into existing systems, not haphazardly overlaid. His case study reveals how mapping out SOPs and scripts upfront slashed onboarding time and costs. - Human-AI collaboration is key: One client retained staff for quality assurance and follow-up, proving AI works best when complementing—not eliminating—human touchpoints. - The patient experience gap: With healthcare admin satisfaction at historic lows, Jerry argues AI voice agents can reduce friction (like phone trees and portals) while building trust.

HT2288 - Lightroom Mobile Now in My Everyday Workflow Until recently, I never considered Lightroom Mobile a serious tool. Simply said, my phone screen is too small for me to consider Lightroom Mobile's image processing of any value. Last fall, however, I discovered a use for a couple Lightroom Mobile features that now consistently contribute to my everyday workflow.

In this episode, we sit down with Jeff, a seasoned veteran of both military and construction tech, to explore the parallels between warfighter support and field technology in construction. From his background in the New Zealand Army to developing tools for the U.S. DoD, Jeff shares powerful insights about product bias, user experience, and how tech must serve those at the sharp end of the spear. We discuss what goes wrong when tech is built in silos, the importance of post-sales support, and why field adoption is the true measure of success. Whether you're a startup founder, a field leader, or a technologist, this is a must-listen on how to build tools that actually work—for the people who need them most.0:00 – What really matters in product success: post-sale support1:00 – Jeff's military background and transition to construction tech3:00 – Comparing warfighters and constructors: tools, stress, and stakes7:00 – The disconnect between tech builders and field users10:30 – Why engineering bias can derail adoption17:00 – Designing for real personas, not ideal users22:00 – Field implementation: the napkin vs the model27:00 – The power of third-party feedback and checking your “true north”35:00 – Workflow integration: A to E to C to O41:00 – Tech adoption fails without a field-level incentive47:00 – The reality of scaling tech in the U.S. market50:00 – SMB vs enterprise: choosing who you're really building for

Chelissa Gray, a Sterile Processing Technician at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, describes CensiTrac as an essential part of her daily workflow. With CensiTrac, Gray and her team can track every surgical instrument from the moment it arrives in decontamination to when it's delivered back to the operating room, ensuring full visibility and accountability throughout the process.One of the features she values most is real-time productivity tracking, which allows technicians to measure and improve their performance continuously. This capability helps staff not only stay on top of their tasks but also push for higher standards each day.CensiTrac also helps reduce confusion between departments. When instruments are still in the OR or misplaced, the tracking system makes it easy to verify their location, helping eliminate blame and streamline communication between the OR and sterile processing.For Gray, the message is simple: CensiTrac works—and it makes a measurable difference in day-to-day operations.

During the upcoming OWASP Global AppSec EU in Barcelona, Spyros Gasteratos, long-time OWASP contributor and co-founder of Smithy, to explore how automation, collaboration, and community resources are shaping the future of application security. Spyros shares the foundation of his talk at OWASP AppSec Global: building a DevSecOps program from scratch using existing community tools—blending technical guidance with a celebration of open-source achievements.Spyros emphasizes that true progress in security stems not from an ever-growing stack of tools, but from aligning the humans behind them. According to him, security failures often stem from fragmented information and misaligned incentives across teams. His solution? Bring the teams together with a shared, streamlined flow of information and automate wherever possible to reduce wasted cycles and miscommunication.At the core of Spyros' philosophy is the need to turn AppSec from a blocker into a builder. Rather than overwhelming developers with endless bug reports, or security leaders with red dashboards, programs need to reflect the actual risk appetite of the business—prioritizing issues dynamically based on impact, timing, and operational goals. He challenges the one-size-fits-all approach, advocating instead for tagging systems that defer certain risks and encode organizational priorities in automation logic.A major part of that transformation lies in Smithy, the platform he's helping build. It's designed to be “Zapier for security”—an automation engine rooted in open-source standards that allows for custom workflows without creating a tangle of fragile scripts. The idea is to let teams focus on what's unique to them, while relying on battle-tested components for the rest.Looking ahead, Spyros doesn't buy into the doom-and-gloom narrative about AI limiting developer creativity. On the contrary, he argues that AI-enabled coding frees up cognitive space for better architecture and secure design thinking. In his view, creativity doesn't die—it just shifts from syntax to strategy.This episode is more than a discussion—it's a blueprint for how teams can rally around a common goal, and how OWASP's community can be the catalyst. Tune in to hear how open-source, automation, and human alignment are redefining AppSec from the ground up.GUEST: Spyros Gasteratos | OpenCRE co-lead and Founder of smithy.security | https://www.linkedin.com/in/spyr/HOST: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.comSPONSORSManicode Security: https://itspm.ag/manicode-security-7q8iRESOURCESSpyros' Session: A completely pluggable DevSecOps programme, for free, using community resources (https://owasp2025globalappseceu.sched.com/event/1whCB/a-completely-pluggable-devsecops-programme-for-free-using-community-resources)Learn more and catch more stories from OWASP Global AppSec EU 2025 Conference coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/owasp-global-appsec-barcelona-2025-application-security-event-coverage-in-catalunya-spainCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

⬥GUESTS⬥Frida Torkelsen, PhD | AI Solution Architect at Newcode.ai | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frida-h-torkelsen/Maged Helmy, PhD | Assoc. 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:

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. AJ (Amjed) Kadhim-Saleh, a dynamic family physician and entrepreneur from Toronto. Dr. AJ shares his inspiring journey from dreaming about building his own clinic during residency to actually opening the doors of his practice—starting with just a concrete slab and a vision of long-term sustainability in medicine. The conversation dives into the nuts and bolts of setting up a clinic from scratch, the importance of efficient systems, and the sometimes-overwhelming administrative burden that comes with being both a physician and practice owner. Dr. AJ openly discusses the challenges he faced with paperwork, how it began to impact his family life, and the pivotal moment that led him to co-found Pippin AI, an innovative AI scribe designed to support family doctors. Along the way, Dr. AJ and Dr. Smith explore the often overlooked business side of medical practice, the need for practical education in practice management, and how embracing change (with a little entrepreneurial grit and a supportive team) can help create a more sustainable clinical day—and a life outside of medicine. Whether you're a new resident thinking about your future, a physician looking for inspiration to build a more efficient practice, or just curious about how technology is shaping the future of primary care, this episode is packed with insights, practical tips, and plenty of encouragement to pursue your vision. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Build with Vision & Community: Starting a clinic from the ground up is about more than architectural plans—it's about designing systems, choosing supportive partners, and cultivating a team invested in sustainable change. Embrace Technology for Sustainability: Efficient tools—like secure patient portals and AI-powered documentation—can relieve the paperwork burden, free up precious hours, and allow us to focus on quality patient care (and our lives outside the clinic!). Change is a Team Sport: Successful practice transformation hinges on bringing your people along for the ride. Clearly communicate the “why” behind changes, tailor solutions to their needs, and foster an environment of ongoing collaboration and support. Meet Dr. AJ (Amjed) Kadhim-Saleh: Dr. Amjed Kadhim-Saleh (AJ for short) is a community family physician, clinic owner, and health technology entrepreneur in Toronto. AJ graduated medical school from the University of Ottawa, and completed his family medicine residency at the University of Toronto. Serving a diverse population of over 1700 patients, AJ is passionate about comprehensive family medicine and building efficient practice. AJ developed an AI-powered Physician Assistant called Pippen, which aims to alleviate administrative burden among physicians and encourage better doctor-patient interactions. AJ is also a Clinical Lecturer at the University of Toronto. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?
