The AI in Business Podcast

Experienced field engineers are retiring or moving on faster than ever, and the troubleshooting knowledge they carry rarely makes it into a manual before they go. In this episode, Deniz Mullis, Senior Director of Global Technical Operations at Cytiva, examines why closing that knowledge gap takes daily feedback loops, cleaner documentation, and technician trust. Deniz joins Emerj's Yolandi de Weerdt to walk through what breaks first during a rollout, how her team builds confidence in AI-assisted guidance, and what has to be true inside a service organization before an AI investment can pay off. This episode is sponsored by Aquant. Learn how consultants are winning business with evidence-based AI ROI, and building long-term capabilities instead of chasing short-term gains.

Building the Infrastructure Behind AI-Enabled Field Service - with Deniz Mullis of Cytiva

The pace of modern IT operations is collapsing under the volume of alerts and the slow speed at which teams can contextualize data during active incidents. In this episode, Luke Rotta, Director of Site Reliability Engineering at Charles Schwab, examines how fragmented tooling, slow triage, and human‑driven workflows create persistent drag on response speed in conversation with host Yolandi de Weerdt, and why AI‑driven pattern recognition and automation meaningfully change that equation. He highlights how leaders can reduce operational noise, build trust in automation through simulation, and sequence high‑volume workflows to move teams from reactive firefighting toward more intelligent, reliable operations.

Financial institutions are pushing agentic AI past pilot mode and into document-heavy, regulated workflows like AML alerts and account closures, but many leaders still lack a clear model for where automation should run freely and where human judgment has to stay in the loop. In this episode, Yoav Naveh, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Reindeer AI, examines how banks are structuring agent oversight so automation earns trust incrementally instead of replacing compliance teams outright. The conversation covers how to identify workflows ready for agentic AI, what signals show an agent is learning rather than failing, and how public and historical data can strengthen both compliance decisions and customer retention.

CRM is shifting from a static repository to the core system that supplies the real‑time customer context required for dependable AI‑driven work. In this episode, Sharif Karmally, VP of SMB Product Marketing at Salesforce, explores with host Daniel Faggella how unified CRM data supports automated lead handling, accurate record updates, and predictive sales and service actions. Leaders will hear practical guidance on system integration, governance for human‑agent workflows, and building a data foundation that scales. This episode is sponsored by Salesforce.

Most enterprise AI pilots don't stall because the underlying models fail — they stall once real production stakes, fragmented systems, and unclear ownership enter the picture. In this episode, Larissa Schneider, Co-Founder & COO at Unframe, unpacks why AI initiatives lose momentum on the way to production and how modular, reusable architecture changes that trajectory. The conversation covers where deployment friction actually originates, how modular AI components cut integration time from months to weeks, and what governance and auditability enterprises need before pushing AI-driven workflows live.

AI Deployment at Retail Speed - with Larissa Schneider of Unframe

Infrastructure readiness has become the real bottleneck for agentic AI in healthcare, as enterprises confront the shift from systems that generate content to systems that execute tasks across complex, regulated workflows. In this episode, Alex Tyrrell, SVP and CTO of Health at Wolters Kluwer, examines how agentic AI changes operational demands for healthcare organizations in conversation with host Matthew DeMello, highlighting the need for domain‑adapted reasoning, granular APIs, and stronger observability as agents drive higher‑volume system interaction. He underscores the practical implications for leaders: preparing backend systems for agent‑driven load, adapting models to real‑world workflows, and avoiding monolithic architectures that limit safe, scalable deployment.

Mobile app attackers already operate at machine speed, but most enterprise cyber functions still rely on manual, human-paced patch cycles to keep up. In this episode, Tom Tovar, Co-Creator at Appdome, examines how agentic AI is replacing manual vulnerability assessment and forcing cyber teams to become producers of protection rather than evaluators of risk. The conversation covers the shift from application-level security policies to release- and user-level personalization, the data and context needed to run agentic protection pipelines, and the accountability questions that come with agentic decision-making.

The Mobile Security Imperative for Regulated Industries - with Tom Tovar of Appdome

A surge in AI adoption is forcing enterprises to expose sensitive data to new systems and access paths, creating security risks that traditional perimeter models can't contain. In this episode, Todd Vancil, Vice President of Veeam's Securiti AI Sales Engineering Team, examines how securing the data itself — through classification, labeling, and governed access — becomes the prerequisite for safely deploying AI at scale, in conversation with host Daniel Faggella, Emerj CEO and Head of Research.

Preparing Enterprise Data for Safe AI Deployment - with Todd Vancil of Securiti AI

Enterprises rushing agentic AI into production are running it through approval gates, batch windows, and audit systems built for human speed — and the gap is where most operational risk lives. In this episode, Chris Caldwell, President and CEO at Concentrix Corporation, examines how machine-scale transactions break processes designed for human pace and why bounded digital delegates outperform unrestricted digital twins in the enterprise. The discussion covers compliance bots that check other bots, the cost reality of poorly tuned agentic agents, and what leaders need to stop doing if they want a defensible AI roadmap.

How Enterprise Leaders Are Building Their Agentic AI Strategy - with Matt Renner of Google Cloud

Visual AI gets stuck not because the technology fails, but because enterprises cannot move it from controlled environments into the variability of daily operations. In this episode, Brian Ton, Senior Laboratory Manager at Florida Crystals Corporation, examines why building operational trust in visual AI requires more than a successful pilot — and what actually determines whether a deployment becomes standard practice or stalls. The conversation covers validation and verification frameworks, the role of the feedback loop in sustaining trust, and why starting with small, demonstrable wins is more effective than reaching for enterprise-wide solutions from the outset.
