The discussion also dives into what enterprises should be doing right now to prepare for this shift, including building strong data foundations, developing internal AI literacy, and experimenting responsibly with agent-based systems.  Throughout the episode, real-world experience and clear technical thinking cut through the hype to offer a grounded look at where AI is today and how organizations can position themselves for what’s coming next.
