Ever wish your agent would just watch you work and copy you?
Enterprise AI initiatives consistently break down in document-heavy environments, not because the underlying models are inadequate, but because fragmented data silos, page-break context loss, and uncoordinated extraction tools erode the semantic layer AI needs to reason accurately. In this episode, Sumedh Chaudhary, CTO US Industry Market at IBM, breaks down why a multi-agent architecture is the operational prerequisite for AI to function reliably in regulated, document-intensive workflows. The conversation covers how governance frameworks with measurable error-rate targets distinguish pilot success from production failure, and how enterprises can structure a phased AI approach that blends automation, fit-for-purpose models, and human oversight. This episode is sponsored by Arango. In this episode, we cover how enterprises can build multi-agent AI architectures to handle document-heavy workflows — and the governance frameworks that determine whether those deployments scale.

Enterprise software is changing. I sat down with Brian Landsman, CEO of AgentExchange at Salesforce, to talk about what an agent-first future actually looks like. #salesforcepartnerThis wasn't a surface-level conversation. We went deep into what's coming next.Here's what stood out:* AgentExchange evolved from a marketplace directory into a commerce and discovery layer, is rethinking how enterprises deploy software* Headless architectures could fundamentally reshape how people interact with enterprise systems since traditional UIs matter less* Agents are moving from assistants to becoming the primary interface* Workflows need to be redesigned from the ground up for an agent-first world* Success will be defined by agents executing end-to-end tasks, not just supporting humans* The gap between AI pilots and production is finally starting to closeWe also discussed how individuals can go to market faster with $50M AgentExchange Builders Initiative.Watch the full conversation and let me know what you think.#data #ai #tdx26 #salesforce #workflows #api #headless360 #agentexchange #apps #theravitshow
KI-Souveränität: Warum du nie von einem einzigen Anbieter abhängig sein darfst Wer seine Geschäftsprozesse auf ein einziges KI-Tool aufbaut, lebt gefährlich. Was passiert, wenn das Tool plötzlich verschwindet, gesperrt wird oder sich verändert? Torsten erklärt, warum echte KI-Kompetenz bedeutet, unabhängig von einzelnen Anbietern zu bleiben. Torsten Koerting auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/torstenkoerting/ Das Claude-Fable-5-Beispiel: Hier heute, weg morgen Für kurze Zeit war Claude Fable 5 verfügbar, eines der stärksten Modelle, das viele je in den Händen hatten. Dann war es wieder weg. Wer in diesen wenigen Tagen bereits Prozesse darauf aufgebaut hatte, stand vor einem Problem. Dieses Beispiel zeigt exemplarisch, was passiert, wenn man sich zu stark auf einen einzigen Anbieter verlässt: Nicht nur einzelne Aufgaben haken, sondern ganze Workflows können zusammenbrechen, im schlimmsten Fall mit direkten geschäftlichen Folgen. Redundanz ist kein Luxus, sondern Strategie Torsten vergleicht die Situation mit der Internetanbindung seines Büros in einer 400 Jahre alten Zehnscheune: Eine einzige Kupferleitung von der Telekom, ohne Glasfaser, ohne Ausweichoption. Die Lösung: ein zweiter 5G-Router mit einem anderen Anbieter, nahtlos integriert, sodass beim Ausfall der eine übernimmt, ohne dass der Call unterbrochen wird. Genau dieselbe Logik gilt für KI-Tools. Datensouveränität bedeutet, dass du jederzeit wechseln kannst, nicht erst, wenn es brennt. Prinzipien statt Tools: Was wirklich zählt Der entscheidende Unterschied zwischen KI-Nutzern, die dauerhaft produktiv bleiben, und solchen, die bei jeder Modell-Änderung ins Straucheln geraten: die einen haben ein Tool gelernt, die anderen haben Prinzipien verstanden. Wenn du weißt, welche Mechanismen hinter einem funktionierenden KI-Workflow stecken, kannst du diese auf jeden Anbieter übertragen, ob Claude, GPT oder ein europäisches Modell. Copy-Paste-Workflows, manuelle Zwischenschritte, ständiges Neuanlernen: das alles gehört der Vergangenheit an, sobald du ein System gebaut hast, das auf übertragbaren Grundlagen steht. Fazit KI-Souveränität ist keine technische Frage, sondern eine strategische. Wer versteht, wie Systeme funktionieren, statt nur, welche Buttons er drücken muss, bleibt handlungsfähig, unabhängig davon, was die großen Anbieter entscheiden. Der erste Schritt: Schau dir an, welche deiner aktuellen KI-Workflows ausschließlich von einem einzigen Tool abhängen. Genau dort liegt das Risiko und das größte Optimierungspotenzial.

Burnout expert Dr Anton Janse van Rensburg is a practising medical doctor from Pretoria, South Africa, with 27 years of experience as an Integrative Practitioner. Besides his MBChB degree, he has a Master's degree in Applied Human Nutrition from the University of Pretoria, and an Advanced Management Diploma from Manchester Business School. He is also a trained metal toxicologist.His clinical practice focuses on burnout, mood disorders, adjuvant therapy for cancer patients, auto-immune disorders, severe intestinal conditions, and chronic infectious diseases.Summary of PodcastKey TakeawaysBurnout is a systemic depletion, not just fatigue. It results from neglecting many small, daily habits (rest, connection, diet), not just from overwork.Dr. Anton's method is prescriptive and holistic. It prioritises daily habits (e.g., 20-min power naps, strong connections) and uses comprehensive tests to find root causes before considering medication.Nutrition is a primary tool for managing chronic conditions. A high-fat, low-carb diet can reverse Type 2 diabetes and stabilise mood by reducing cravings for refined carbs and optimising brain chemistry.Purpose and challenge are critical for longevity. Complete retirement is a risk factor for rapid aging; staying engaged with meaningful work or new challenges is essential for maintaining brain health.Burnout: Root Causes & Holistic SolutionsDefinition: A systemic depletion from neglecting many small, interconnected daily habits (physiological, emotional), not just from overwork.Origin of Insight: Dr. Anton's experience managing health for 9,000 workers on a high-stress construction site in Maputo, Mozambique (2000–2003).This role involved diagnosing 30–40 malaria cases daily and managing fatalities, providing a "crossroads" experience that informed his later focus on burnout.Dr. Anton's Prescriptive Approach:Initial Assessment: A deep history of work hours, rest habits, and personal connections.Daily Respite: Prescribes short, scheduled breaks to manage the body's natural circadian dip.Power Naps: 20-minute naps are ideal; naps >1 hour are detrimental to brain health.Social Connection: Emphasises strong relationships with friends, family, and colleagues, citing research on their importance for resilience and longevity.Physiological Testing: Uses comprehensive tests (bloods, stress ECGs) to find root causes, not just manage symptoms.Kevin's Experience: Burnout led to "reduced performance"—sitting at the desk with a large to-do list but accomplishing nothing.Solution: Stepped away from the desk more often and re-prioritised tasks to reduce stress.Mood Disorders & The Role of NutritionDefinition: A broad term for unstable brain chemistry, which can manifest as sadness, cynicism, or even physical fatigue (e.g., heavy limbs, a known symptom of low serotonin).Societal Factors: Increased prevalence in younger generations is linked to social media exposure and a sedentary lifestyle, both of which negatively impact brain chemistry.Nutrition as a Primary Tool:Core Principle: The brain requires healthy fats (avocado, olive oil, nuts, meat) and is harmed by refined carbohydrates.Mechanism: A high-fat, low-carb diet reduces cravings for refined carbs, which drives illness and instability.Case Study (Mood Disorder): A patient with a severe mood disorder saw significant improvement within 48 hours of starting a high-fat, low-carb diet, avoiding hospitalization.Case Study (Type 2 Diabetes): A patient on metformin for 25 years was advised to challenge the medication's necessity.Process: A low-carb, high-fat diet for six months, monitored with fasting insulin and HbA1c tests, can reveal if the pancreas can function without medication.Outcome: If successful, medication can be slowly and carefully reduced.Calorie Counting: Dr. Anton strongly advises against restrictive diets and calorie counting, as they are unsustainable and against human nature.The Future of Work & PurposeAI's Impact: The potential for AI to eliminate jobs raises concerns about a loss of purpose and meaning, which are often tied to work and contribution.Retirement & Longevity: Dr. Anton cautions that complete retirement is a risk factor for rapid aging.Recommendation: Stay engaged with meaningful activities (consulting, volunteering, mentoring) to maintain brain health and purpose.Challenge: The brain, like a muscle, needs to be challenged to grow and stay healthy. Avoiding challenges is detrimental to long-term well-being.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled in 2014 to provide data from The UK High Net Worth Database to marketers targeting affluent and high-net-worth customers.

Die Kommunikation auf der Baustelle ist heute oft komplex, unübersichtlich und ineffizient – zu viele Plattformen, unterschiedliche Planversionen und unklare Zuständigkeiten führen schnell zu Fehlern und Mehrkosten. Genau hier setzt die Lösung von Hugo Rodrigues von Trimble an. In dieser Podcast-Folge sprechen wir über die digitale Plattform ProjectSight und wie sie die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Architekten, Bauleitern, Ingenieuren und Handwerkern revolutioniert. Statt isolierter Tools ermöglicht ein zentraler Datenraum eine klare Struktur und jederzeit Zugriff auf aktuelle Informationen. Besonders spannend ist die Integration von Plänen, Pendenzen, Fotos und Protokollen direkt in einem System. Dadurch entsteht Transparenz und Nachvollziehbarkeit über den gesamten Projektverlauf. Auch mobile Anwendungen erleichtern die Arbeit direkt auf der Baustelle erheblich. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist die einfache Integration bestehender Systeme und Formate wie IFC oder PDF. So können alle Beteiligten effizient zusammenarbeiten, ohne ihre gewohnten Tools verlassen zu müssen. Die Folge zeigt eindrücklich, wie digitale Workflows die Baustellenkommunikation nachhaltig verbessern können.
Before he founded Render, Anurag Goel was the fifth engineer at Stripe, where he watched roughly a fifth of the engineering team disappear into managing AWS, writing brittle, repetitive, error-prone infrastructure scripts that had nothing to do with the actual product. That experience became the seed for Render: a platform that automates away the undifferentiated DevOps work and lets application teams ship without standing up their own cloud team. Today, millions of developers build on it, and Render has raised over $260M from Bessemer and General Catalyst. In this episode, Tobi and Anurag get into what's actually changing as AI moves from hype to production. Anurag makes the case that agents are simply a new kind of application, long-running, stateful, tool-heavy, and a new kind of end user you have to design for. He explains why Render deliberately refuses the "AI cloud" label, what he's building with Workflows and sandboxes, and why the hardest part of shipping agents isn't building them but seeing inside them. The conversation also goes wide: how to hire executives when interviews lie, why short-lived keys and blast-radius thinking matter more than container escapes, how distribution is shifting from SEO to getting ChatGPT and Claude to recommend you, and why, despite all the "SaaS is dead" noise, specialization isn't going anywhere. Topics covered: Why ~20% of Stripe's engineers were stuck managing AWS and how that became Render "We're not the AI cloud, we're the application cloud," and why the distinction matters Agents, as a new type of application (and a new end user), you have to build for Render Workflows and sandboxes: the consolidated AI runtime Hiring executives when interviews are an imperfect signal Security as blast-radius management: short-lived keys over "admin forever" The shift from SEO to GEO, getting chatbots to recommend your product Why SaaS isn't dying, and specialization still wins
The future of land investing isn't coming; it's already here, and it's creating a bigger gap between investors every day.(Show Notes)The land investors pulling ahead today aren't necessarily smarter or working harder. They're using automation, AI agents, CRM workflows, and property data tools to eliminate busywork, respond faster, and make better decisions.I'll walk through the specific capabilities your CRM and operating system should have, including AI call handling, automated follow-up systems, call summaries, direct mail tracking, e-signatures, API integrations, and agentic AI tools like Claude that can actually perform tasks for you.Whether you use Stride CRM, Land Portal, or something else entirely, the goal is the same: give your time and mental bandwidth back while building a more scalable land investing business.
In this episode of Command Control Power, the hosts discuss practical IT uses of AI, including improving client communications, speeding email migration due diligence via AI-generated PowerShell reporting (mailbox size, forwarding rules, aliases, naming pitfalls, licensing limits), and reducing billing friction by summarizing recorded RingCentral calls in Claude to log hours and generate detailed invoices, including for Ubiquiti camera projects. They debate risks such as blindly running AI-suggested commands, clients acting on AI advice, and data leakage when employees paste company information into public AI tools, emphasizing guardrails, policies, and potential local/private AI setups (e.g., Mac mini with Ollama). The conversation broadens to AI's impact on IT business models, automation in ticketing, and Apple's lackluster AI progress, delayed Siri features, privacy positioning, and reliance on partners like Google/Gemini. 00:00 Show Kickoff 00:02 New Studio Tour 00:31 Flag Outage Story 01:35 AI Migration Prep 03:26 PowerShell Due Diligence 05:36 Call Summaries Invoicing 07:31 Automating Call Logs 09:35 AI As Expert Helper 11:51 Safety With Commands 12:58 Clients Using AI 13:54 Data Privacy Guardrails 17:17 Industry Shift Fears 20:07 Auto Reply Ticketing 24:18 Local AI Knowledge Base 26:02 AI Eats Software 27:35 Future Of IT Services 29:04 AI Automation Ethics 30:06 Market Pressure On IT 31:03 Apple Intelligence Doubts 33:10 Privacy And Gemini 35:06 Apple Strategy And Mindshare 37:43 MDM Guardrails Needed 39:39 First Mover Myth 43:32 Ubiquity And AirPods AI 47:21 Beta Plans And Rollout 48:06 AI Policy And Profiles 51:32 Wrap Up And Outro
Recorded live at the Thomson Reuters Advisory Symposium 2026 in Huntington Beach, CA on June 2, 2026, this special live episode of Pulse of the Practice features hosts Paul Miller (founder and owner of Business by Design, a firm specializing in advisory services and tax strategies for small business entrepreneurs) and Mo Arbas (Advisory Services Lead and thought-leadership presenter at Thomson Reuters events, passionate about challenge and change in the advisory space).In this high-energy, audience-driven session, Paul and Mo tackle the most pressing challenges facing tax and accounting firms right now — and lay out a compelling vision for what's coming next. They walk through a firm life cycle framework built around three concurrent cycles: the client cycle, the firm cycle, and a pre-cycle focused on prospecting — including the often-overlooked reality that your existing clients are prospects too.The conversation dives deep into three critical observations shaping the future of accounting firms:Capacity vs. Complexity — Client and firm complexity is increasing faster than most firms can keep up with, creating a bandwidth crisis that no amount of hustle alone can solve.The Knowledge Transfer Problem — Decades of expertise live in people's heads, and there's no easy way to transfer that institutional knowledge to new staff — until now.The AI Inflection Point — AI is no longer a future concept. It is actively reshaping firm workflows, and the next wave of agentic AI will bring more advancement in the next six months than the past ten years combined.Paul and Mo introduce the concept of Client Intelligence and Firm Intelligence — a framework for capturing unstructured conversational data, client context, and firm-specific knowledge to power smarter advisory workflows. They also preview Playbooks inside Ready to Advise, a feature designed to help firms standardize their advisory strategies by client persona, and discuss the vision of being able to speak a proposal into existence — letting AI do 80–90% of the scoping, pricing, and packaging work based on context gathered from real client conversations.Whether you're a solo practitioner or running a multi-office firm, this episode will challenge you to rethink your firm's life cycle, reclaim lost revenue opportunities, and start building toward a scalable, intelligent advisory practice.Topics covered:Firm and client life cycle frameworksAdvisory prospecting for new and existing clientsBandwidth and capacity challenges in accounting firmsAI and agentic workflows in tax and accountingClient Intelligence vs. Firm IntelligenceKnowledge transfer and staff training with AIAdvisory playbooks and client personasSpeaking a proposal into existencePricing strategy and scope definitionReady to Advise product updatesThomson Reuters Advisory Symposium 2026Join Paul Miller and Thomson Reuters Advisory Consultants as they have real and relevant conversations to provide you with inspirational and actionable ideas to move your firm forward — covering leadership, client relationships, firm culture, staffing, technology, and much more.
What if educating your people so well that they could leave was exactly the point? At Your Health, that's not a risk to manage — it's the philosophy that built an entire learning ecosystem. In this episode, Jamie talks with Aubrey Wall, who came to Your Health from a background in education and now leads Your Health University, the organization's learning management system and continuous-development engine. Aubrey brings an educator's eye to a fast-evolving healthcare environment, where best practice changes by the day and meeting patients where they are demands that staff never stop learning. Here's what you'll hear: Why a healthcare company runs 12-month, Department of Labor–registered apprenticeships — including programs in management, value-based care, population health, and hospice aide preparation How gamification is being built into nurse instruction (straight from Aubrey's dissertation research) The difference between Your Health University (your classroom) and the Hub (your resource library) How LinkedIn Learning delivered roughly $4.2 million in CEUs to staff last year Meeting Leah — the new AI assistant that helps employees find exactly the right course If you've ever believed growing your people is a cost rather than the whole point, this conversation will change how you think.

What happens when AI stops acting as a productivity tool and starts becoming the decision layer of engineering? In this episode of Talking Industrial Automation, Lisa Richter sits down with Dr. Axel Zein, CEO and President of WSCAD, to explore the rise of AI-native engineering and what it means for the future of industrial automation. Axel explains why simply adding AI to existing workflows isn't enough, how engineering processes are poised for a fundamental transformation, and why the companies that embrace AI today will gain a significant advantage tomorrow. From reducing complexity and accelerating documentation to reshaping the role of engineers themselves, this conversation offers a practical look at where AI is delivering real value—and where the hype falls short.

Diese Muster wirken wie Self-Promotion oder AI-Washing, nicht wie faktenbasierte Argumente. Hypothese: Solche Templates könnten sich künftig weiter verbreiten und Narrative rund um AI stärker dominieren.AI-Kosten im Blick behaltenAus dem Transkript geht hervor, dass Unternehmen AI-Kosten stark belasten: Uber meldet Budgets, die für agentic und autonome AI verbrannt wurden; Berichte über Kosten-Rationierung bei großen Firmen kursieren auch im Umfeld. Zugleich fallen Tokenpreise, doch die Gesamtkosten steigen durch komplexe Workflows und viele Sub-Agents. Implikation für Unternehmen: Einführung einer Kosten-Governance, klare Budgetgrenzen und eine kohärente Planungslogik statt unkontrollierter Skalierung.80/20-Compliance-SoftwareFirewall-Idee: 80 Prozent der Standards lassen sich als Software-Selbstprüfung abdecken, 20 Prozent erfordern weiterhin Prüfer vor Ort. Begründung ist der akute Personalmangel bei Behörden, wodurch eine Software-basierten Erstprüfung sinnvoll wäre. Umsetzung braucht Zertifizierung der Software und Klärung mit Versicherungen; der Ansatz zielt darauf, Prozesse zu beschleunigen und Abdeckung zu erhöhen.Fokus statt MultitaskEine klare Denkregel aus dem Gespräch lautet: Fang mit einer Sache an und verbessere diese zuerst, statt drei neue Dinge gleichzeitig anzugehen. Dadurch reduziert sich Komplexität und das Risiko eines overengineered Modells. Implikation für Unternehmen/Karriere: Setze frühzeitig auf eine fokussierte Verbesserung, um schneller Validierung zu erreichen und Ressourcen sinnvoll zu nutzen.Multi-Model Orchestration als TrendEs wird ein Trend sichtbar, bei dem Modelle je nach Aufgabe gezielt ausgewählt werden: Perplexity Computer soll Aufgaben erledigen, indem es passende Modelle (z. B. Gemini, Claude) orchestriert. Apple nutzt Gemini intern, und unterschiedliche Modelle eignen sich für unterschiedliche Subtasks. Bedeutung: Solche Orchestrierung kann Kosten senken und Leistungsfähigkeit erhöhen; Unternehmen sollten über Multi-Model-Strategien nachdenken.KeywordsAI-KostenAI-EntlassungenApple GeminiSiriTokenpreiseAI-Kosten 2026 UnternehmenApple Gemini Siri Privatsphäre ForkPerplexity Computer AI OptimierungFirewall Brandschutz Software SchweizQuickfire OnlyFans Creator MonetisierungSubagents AI ArchitekturArbeitnehmerüberlassung Modernisierung HandwerkArbeitgebermarke Handwerk

How are beauty and wellness business leaders actually using AI today? That was the question posed to three longtime industry executives on stage during Glossy's annual E-Commerce Summit in Miami Beach earlier this month — and the answers may surprise you. For example, Jenna Manula Linares, vp of digital marketing and TikTok Shop at Tarte Cosmetics, has recently added 15-minute team check-ins at the end of each weekly meeting that require staffers to share how they used AI that week and whether or not it was successful. “We're creating a culture of experimentation,” she said. “So, what I challenge my teams to do each week is to use AI in a new or different way.” The team then tracks these challenges and results using Tarte's internal AI program. Meanwhile, David Baker, chief revenue officer of the skin-care brand Beekman 1802, has found success in identifying early AI adopters within the brand and empowering them to learn new skills and own tentpole projects. “First and foremost, it's finding the people who have an interest in it, and giving them the room and space to play,” he said. Baker is teaching his team to think of AI as a colleague that works while the rest of the team is off the clock. “Finding and sourcing creators gets really hard, so we've built an agentic staffer. Her name is Zoe, and Zoe is designed to source [creators] and draft personalized outreach, so that we can find people who fit our ethos and fit our brand voice really, really well at scale, while we sleep,” he said. “AI has permeated every team and workflow we have at Tarte,” Linares said. “I'm constantly telling my team, if it takes you longer than 15 minutes to do something, there's a faster way, and you should learn and try to figure it out via AI.” Then there is Ulta Beauty, which rolled out one of the largest AI partnerships within beauty retail last month, with Google Gemini. The team has spent the past few weeks learning how its consumers actually use the new AI-powered features, which include an on-site and in-app chatbot. “We continue to find new data sets that we need to put into [the chatbot's knowledge base, like] store locations, store hours — a lot of those things where customers are just asking generic questions,” said Josh Friedman, svp of digital and e-commerce at Ulta Beauty. “They're asking lots of questions about the brand, and we're seeing some really good use cases with our customer care agent, as well.” In today's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, host Lexy Lebsack takes listeners live on stage with Ulta Beauty's Josh Friedman, Tarte's Jenna Manula Linares and Beekman1802's David Baker to learn about the actual impact of AI today.
In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, Tony Schueth, CEO of Point-of-Care Partners (POCP), welcomes Pooja Babbrah, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Industry Alignment at NCPDP, and Anna Taylor, Associate Vice President of Population Health and Value-Based Care at MultiCare Health System and Steering Committee member of the HL7 Da Vinci Project, for a discussion on the relationship between standards development and policymaking. Using the CMS “Interoperability Standards and Prior Authorization for Drugs” Proposed Rule (CMS-0062-P) as a backdrop, the conversation explores how standards communities, implementation accelerators, pilot programs, and industry collaboration influence healthcare interoperability long before requirements appear in federal regulations. Tony opens the discussion by asking how organizations should think about the relationship between standards development and policymaking today. Pooja and Anna explain that organizations such as the HL7 Da Vinci Project and NCPDP Standards are often viewed as technical standards bodies, when in reality they serve as collaborative forums where providers, payers, vendors, pharmacists, regulators, and other stakeholders work through real-world operational challenges. The conversation then shifts to the value of participating early. Tony asks what organizations miss when they wait for final rules before becoming involved. Anna discusses the operational, strategic, and financial advantages organizations can gain by participating in standards development activities, implementation guide development, pilots, testing events, and implementation communities. As part of that discussion, Tony and Anna touch on the growing body of production implementations supported by Da Vinci. Organizations interested in understanding how these implementation guides are being deployed across the industry can explore the Da Vinci In-Action Implementation Tracker, which documents real-world adoption efforts and implementation progress. Pooja expands on the importance of creating opportunities for broader industry participation. She describes NCPDP Collab, an interactive forum open to both members and non-members that provides a venue for discussing workflow challenges, implementation barriers, and emerging industry needs before formal standards development begins. The discussion naturally progresses into the CMS “Interoperability Standards and Prior Authorization for Drugs” Proposed Rule (CMS-0062-P), which directly references standards and implementation approaches developed by both NCPDP and Da Vinci. As Tony guides the conversation toward implementation, Anna discusses how Da Vinci's collaborative testing model and initiatives such as Trebuchet help organizations evaluate interoperability workflows in real-world settings before widespread adoption. The discussion then turns to one of the central themes of CMS-0062-P: the convergence of pharmacy and medical benefit workflows. Pooja explains that while patients and providers simply want access to treatment, healthcare organizations continue to operate within separate medical and pharmacy benefit structures. She argues that future interoperability efforts must focus less on the underlying standards and more on creating workflows that deliver a seamless experience for providers and patients regardless of where coverage resides. Building on that theme, Tony asks how healthcare organizations should think differently about workflow design. Drawing on her background in human factors engineering, Anna argues that healthcare has historically allowed technology to dictate workflows rather than designing technology around how people actually work. She advocates for starting with desired outcomes and user experience, then working backward to determine how standards, automation, and technology can support those goals. The conversation then moves to trust, adoption, and data quality. Tony observes that interoperability is no longer simply about moving data but about delivering the right information at the right time and within the right workflow. Anna discusses the importance of consistency and reliability in building trust, while Pooja shares examples of how incomplete implementations can undermine provider confidence even when standards and technology are technically available. Together, they argue that adoption depends as much on usability and trust as it does on technical capability. Returning to CMS-0062-P, Tony asks where organizations should focus their feedback beyond timelines and compliance concerns. Both guests encourage stakeholders to look closely at the broader strategic questions embedded throughout the proposed rule, particularly the requests for information that may signal future policy priorities. Rather than focusing solely on implementation challenges, they encourage organizations to use the comment process as an opportunity to help shape how healthcare workflows should function in the future. The episode concludes with Tony's signature question: what should healthcare stakeholders think differently about or start doing differently tomorrow? Pooja highlights the expanding role pharmacists can play in care coordination, medication management, and prior authorization workflows, arguing that pharmacists remain an underutilized resource within the healthcare ecosystem. Anna closes with a call for broader participation across healthcare, encouraging providers, employers, patients, vendors, and other stakeholders to engage with standards communities and implementation efforts. She emphasizes that meaningful progress happens when stakeholders move beyond identifying problems and actively participate in building solutions. Throughout the discussion, Tony reinforces a central theme: the future of healthcare interoperability is not being shaped solely through regulation. It is shaped through the collaboration, testing, implementation, and problem-solving taking place every day within standards organizations, implementation accelerators, pilot programs, and stakeholder communities. Organizations that want to influence the future of healthcare should not wait for final rules to arrive. They should participate in the conversations that help create them.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I look at Microsoft's latest moves to help organizations deploy and scale AI agents without sacrificing control. Highlights 00:10 — In the latest updates to Copilot Studio, Microsoft has introduced a series of improvements focusing on visibility and governance, allowing users to expand automation while maintaining control. Regarding visibility, the new analytics viewer role provides read-only access to an agent's analytics page. 00:36 — On top of this, Microsoft has expanded its agent usage estimator to include Dynamics 365 agents, enabling users to forecast Copilot credit consumption across both Copilot Studio and Dynamics 365 from one place. Microsoft already enables users to embed Copilot Studio agents into workflows using its agent node function. 01:16 — Other updates to workflows are designed to enable scaling without introducing governance risk. Workflows can connect to a larger toolkit, such as MCP server-enabled tools, to make it easier to take actions in systems, yet still within the Microsoft Security Framework. Users can also utilize agents built in Copilot Studio to bring interactive app experiences directly into Copilot Chat. 01:48 — This means they can review data, update records, approve requests, or create assets, all without having to switch tools. These are just some of the updates that Microsoft has been working on throughout April, and I really enjoy following the trajectory of these updates because they illustrate to me the current stage of our collective journey with AI. 02:11 — It's clear that agents are integrated into many systems, and now is the time to scale them securely. So, if you're still considering when and if to introduce AI-driven practices into your business, major directional changes like this should serve as a cautionary tale. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

How can interoperability, policy, and technology come together to solve some of healthcare's most stubborn challenges? On episode 108 of Astonishing Healthcare, host Justin Venneri sits down with Brendan Keeler, Interoperability Practice Lead at HTD Health and author of the popular Health API Guy Substack. Brendan shares his journey from working at Epic Systems to becoming a leading voice in healthcare interoperability, offering insights into the intersection of policy, technology, and workflows.Together, they explore the current state of interoperability in healthcare, the impact of CMS rulemaking on prior authorizations, and the challenges of modernizing entrenched systems of record. Brendan also highlights the importance of empathy in solving healthcare's complex problems and shares his thoughts on the future of digital identity and patient data access.Key TakeawaysInteroperability is about ubiquity, not just standards. While digital standards like FHIR and NCPDP are important, true interoperability requires widespread adoption across all stakeholders to ensure seamless data exchange.CMS rulemaking is driving change in prior authorizations. New regulations aim to digitize and standardize prior authorization processes, reducing manual burdens while potentially increasing overall transaction volumes.Modernizing healthcare infrastructure is a monumental challenge. Systems of record like EHRs and claims processing platforms are deeply entrenched, making change costly and complex. Leaders often opt for incremental improvements, such as layering AI on top, rather than full-scale replacements.Empathy is key to solving healthcare problems. Bridging the "empathy gap" by making complex issues like benefit design and regulation accessible to non-experts is essential for attracting talent and driving innovation.Digital identity is foundational for the future of healthcare. Strong identity verification systems unlock trust and enable secure, seamless data sharing between patients, providers, and payers, paving the way for better outcomes.Related ContentHow to obtain Rx data and what to do with itReplay - Unified Care Navigation: A Critical Component of the Future of Health Benefits DesignAH064 - Empowering Plan Sponsors: Data Access & Analysis, with Bridget MulvennaJudi Health Policy Update – It's a Tangled Web of ProgressDisclaimerThis podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Lauren Livak Gilbert, lead of the Digital Shelf Institute, joins the podcast to explore how agentic commerce and AI tools like Amazon's Rufus are transforming product discovery. As the industry shifts from traditional SEO keyword stuffing to natural language and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), sellers must optimize their Product Detail Pages by directly answering consumer Q&As to feed context-driven AI recommendations. Currently, nimble challenger brands are capturing market share by adapting quickly and building off-site trust signals, while large legacy brands are often bogged down by massive SKU counts, messy data taxonomy, and regulatory hurdles. To overcome these challenges and safely scale AI content generation, Lauren emphasizes the critical need for strict E-commerce hygiene and a single source of truth for product data using Product Experience Management platforms like Salsify.

Clinical innovation in orthodontics is moving faster than ever, but many practices are still relying on workflows built for a different era. In this episode of The Golden Age of Orthodontics, Dr. Leon Klempner and Amy Epstein sit down with Jake Gulick, president of GreyFinch, to discuss how outdated systems, disconnected tools, and manual processes may be quietly limiting practice efficiency and growth.Jake shares his perspective from nearly two decades in the orthodontic technology space, from helping scale Cloud9Ortho in its early years to leading innovation at GreyFinch, and explains how modern cloud-based practice management systems, AI-assisted workflows, automation, and smarter integrations are reshaping the operational side of orthodontics. The conversation explores how practices can reduce workflow friction, improve patient communication, gain better visibility into marketing performance, and rethink long-standing processes that no longer serve today's digital orthodontic practice.In this episode, you'll learn:Why many orthodontic practices are still operating with outdated workflow modelsHow AI can improve efficiency without replacing the human side of the practiceThe difference between cloud-based and truly browser-based softwareHow automation can streamline patient follow-up and case acceptanceWhy disconnected systems create hidden operational frictionThe importance of workflow design when implementing new technologyHow practices can better track marketing performance and patient conversion dataWhy practice management software should evolve alongside modern orthodonticsGo to www.pplpractice.com for more!
What happens when you stop focusing on human resources and start focusing on the human experience? Technology is advancing faster than human nature can keep up. If you want to stay relevant, you need a fundamental cultural reset, not just new software. In this interview, Laura Cushing, the Chief People Experience Officer at Pacific Life, discusses the evolving intersection of organizational culture, employee engagement, and artificial intelligence. She emphasizes a strategic shift toward accountability and transparency as the balance of power moves back toward employers in a post-pandemic landscape. To prepare for an AI-driven future, Pacific Life has implemented a Gen AI Academy and Innovation Labs to demystify technology and help staff reimagine their workflows. Cushing highlights the rising importance of "power skills"—human-centric abilities like coaching and visionary leadership—which remain essential as technical tasks become automated. Ultimately, she argues that HR leaders must cultivate deep business acumen and proactive trust-building to successfully guide their workforces through digital transformation.

What does AI transformation actually look like inside one of the world's largest engineering organizations? At Team '26 in Anaheim, I recently sat down with Jason Andrews to unpack how Cisco transformed decades of fragmented tooling, disconnected workflows, and spreadsheet-driven operations into a unified system of work built around Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management, automation, and AI-ready workflows. And honestly, this conversation felt refreshingly practical. Jason oversees engineering operations across Cisco Networking, a business unit with around 22,000 engineers and product managers representing roughly $40 billion in annual revenue. So when he talks about transformation, this isn't theory. This is operational change happening at enterprise scale. We discuss how Cisco consolidated more than 85 Jira instances, reduced tooling spend by 54%, and accelerated reporting by 40x while creating a far more scalable engineering organization. But as Jason explains throughout the conversation, the real challenge was never the technology itself. It was getting teams to rethink how they wanted to work moving forward rather than simply migrating years of technical debt into modern systems. One of the strongest themes in this episode is the difference between transformation and migration. Jason explains why organizations often fail when they focus only on moving systems rather than changing workflows, behaviors, and operational culture at the same time. We also dive deep into AI adoption inside engineering organizations. Jason shares how Cisco is already seeing significant productivity gains from AI-assisted development, why organizational context matters so much for enterprise AI success, and why he believes the industry is still massively underestimating how much structured data and workflow consistency AI systems actually require. Along the way, we unpack scenario planning in the AI era, why annual planning cycles are becoming increasingly fragile, and how leaders can move from rigid long-term roadmaps toward more agile operational playbooks capable of adapting to constant disruption. There's also a fascinating discussion around the so-called "SaaS apocalypse," the limits of AI-generated software, and why Jason believes humans will remain central to enterprise operations for years to come, especially in organizations managing millions of lines of legacy code and decades of accumulated institutional knowledge. If your organization is currently navigating modernization, operational complexity, AI adoption, or large-scale systems transformation, this episode is packed with lessons learned from the front lines of enterprise change. And perhaps most importantly, Jason offers a reminder that AI alone is not the strategy. The real opportunity comes from reducing friction, improving context, and helping teams spend more time solving meaningful problems instead of manually stitching systems together.
