The AI in Business Podcast

Legacy enterprises are facing a decisive shift from stalled pilots and fragmented data toward agentic systems that reshape customer experience, operations, and net‑new revenue.
 
Matt Renner, President and Chief Revenue Officer at Google Cloud, examines how leaders can move beyond early AI failures to build modern data foundations, orchestrate heterogeneous agents, and accelerate transformation in conversation with Daniel Faggella, Emerj CEO and Head of Research.
 
The discussion highlights capability‑driven ROI, structured AI governance, data modernization, agentic orchestration, and the emerging security imperatives shaping enterprise adoption.

The rapid expansion of AI‑driven knowledge work is exposing a growing tension: teams are moving faster across more surface areas, but their context is fragmented across tools, personal systems, and ad‑hoc workflows.
 
In this episode, Tsavo Knott, CEO and co‑founder at Pieces, examines how the shift toward AI‑native individual contributors requires a unified substrate for capturing and retrieving operational context, and how this enables more effective coordination between humans, agents, and cross‑functional teams with host Daniel Faggella, Emerj CEO and Head of Research.
 
He highlights the practical implications for leaders, from standardizing how context is recorded to enabling context‑router roles that keep decisions and execution aligned at the speed modern AI workflows demand.

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.

A growing reliance on data‑driven systems is creating tension for enterprise leaders between operational efficiency and the human judgment required for high‑risk, high‑reward decisions. In this episode, Kun He, Lead Scientific Advisor at Bayer, examines how AI improves agricultural decision‑making while still leaving critical gaps that only human intuition and risk tolerance can fill, in conversation with host Matthew DeMello. He highlights where AI reliably accelerates complex workflows and where leaders must preserve the capacity to recognize outlier opportunities and make unconventional calls that data alone would never surface.

A growing share of enterprise work now depends on systems that can support both human and AI agents, exposing bottlenecks in coordination, governance, and cross‑functional process design.


In this episode, Debanjan Saha, Chief Executive Officer at DataRobot, examines how enterprises can rebuild their operational architecture to support digital employees at scale in conversation with host Daniel Faggella, Emerj CEO and Head of Research.


He highlights the practical shifts required — from identity and access control to auditability, simulation, and cross‑system orchestration — that enable agents to take on back‑office and cross‑functional work reliably and safely.
