The Connectology® Podcast by Roadnight Taylor

#85 Hypercube's AI perspective with Adam Sroka, CEO, Hypercube

Rachael Eynon is joined by Adam Sroka, CEO of Hypercube, a specialist data and AI consultancy focused on the energy sector, to explore how energy organisations can navigate AI adoption safely and practically.

Adam explores:

  • How the energy sector is roughly a decade behind leading tech industries in AI adoption — caution that exists for good reason given the complexity of multi-stakeholder energy systems
  • His "risk staircase" approach favours the lowest-risk use case that proves value and builds confidence before scaling up
  • AI as a quality check: using one model to critique or score the output of another is a practical pattern that could help organisations improve the reliability of AI-generated work without heavy overhead
  • AI's role in Connections Reform: as grid connection processes grow more complex, there may be opportunities for AI to improve data accessibility, transparency, and decision-making across the connections landscape

Connectologist® Catherine Cleary also joined Adam on the Hypercube Energy Podcast, exploring grid connection reform, queue management, and the future of connections from an engineer's perspective — you can listen to that conversation here: https://wearehypercube.com/grid-reform-queue-management-and-the-future-of-connections/
