Tech Talks Daily ·

2025/10/10

Agentic AI is only interesting when it leaves the lab and takes responsibility for real outcomes. In this episode, I reconnect with Raj Koneru, Founder and CEO of Kore.ai, to talk about what that shift looks like inside large enterprises. Raj has been building conversational systems long before chatbots became dinner table conversation, and he is clear about where the action is now. Understanding intent is table stakes. The next frontier is planning, reasoning, and executing tasks through agents

Tech Talks Daily ·

2025/10/09

In this episode, Mike Baker, Vice President and Global CISO at DXC Technology, says the cyber industry has been focusing on the wrong side of AI. He believes too many companies use it only to block threats instead of studying how criminals use it to scale phishing, bypass defenses, and deploy adaptive malware. Attackers are learning faster than ever, and security teams must catch up. Mike argues that defenders need to think differently and use AI as both protection and opportunity. He shares

2025/10/07

As AI tools race into every corner of software development, a simple question keeps coming back to me. Will AI replace human testers, or will it force us to rethink what great testing looks like in the first place. In today’s conversation, I talk with Santiago Komadina Geffroy, a Software Engineer at Jalasoft and an educator with Jala University, about what changes, what stays, and what teams should do next. Santiago shares how his day job and teaching intersect. He points to a gap he sees often

2025/10/06

Here’s the thing. Most of us still picture a hotel lobby with a counter, a queue, and someone typing furiously while we wait after a long flight. In this episode, I sit with Richard Valtr, founder of Mews, to ask whether that scene is quietly fading. Backed by Tiger Global, Goldman Sachs, and Battery Ventures, Mews recently raised 75 million dollars to scale an AI-powered platform that already processes more than 10 billion dollars in payments each year. Richard argues the real bottleneck in

2025/10/06

When a company quietly builds world-class storage and virtualization software for twenty years, it usually means they have been too busy solving real problems to shout about it. That is what makes euroNAS and its founder, Tvrtko Fritz, such an interesting story. In this episode, I reconnect with Tvrtko after meeting him on the IT Press Tour in Amsterdam to learn how his company evolved from “NAS for the masses” into a trusted enterprise alternative in a market filled with bigger names. Tvrtko shares

AI hype has been loud for three years, but most leaders still tell me the real work begins after the demo. That was the starting point for my conversation with Christina Ellwood, co-founder of AI Realized, a community built to help enterprises move from pilots to production with less noise and more results. Christina has a calm, practical way of explaining why progress has accelerated from a tiny fraction of companies in production to roughly one in five this year, and why many of the remaining

Finance leaders know the struggle of managing endless spreadsheets, juggling data from every corner of the business, and trying to plan for a world that changes by the hour. In this episode, I talk with Julio Martínez, Co-Founder and CEO of Abacum, about how his team is helping finance professionals move from reactive reporting to confident, real-time decision making.

What happens when a CTO and a CIO of a global tech company sit down together to talk about AI? That’s the starting point of today’s episode, where I’m joined by Jeremy Ung, CTO at Blackline, and Sumit Johar, the company’s CIO. Rather than chasing the hype, we focus on what AI really means for executive decision making, governance, and business outcomes.

I invited Michael Reitblat, CEO and founder of Forter, to unpack a reality many retailers are living with every day. Fraud is no longer a side issue. It shapes conversion rates, customer loyalty, and the bottom line. Michael argues that if you remove the fear of fraud, you unlock growth. That sounds bold, but his lens is practical. Replace guesswork with instant, consistent decisions and you improve both security and the checkout experience. Here’s the thing. False declines feel like fraud in

Here’s the thing. “Smart” has been the buzzword for years, but Richard Leurig argues we’re on the cusp of something bolder. In our conversation, the Accruent president drew a clear line between buildings filled with connected systems and buildings that can sense, decide, and act without a person staring at a dashboard all day. Richard shared a retail story that sticks. By wiring refrigeration units with sensors and training models on billions of telemetry points, his team can spot failures 48 to 72

What if the biggest weakness in cybersecurity isn’t a missing tool, but a cultural blind spot? That’s the perspective of Dan Jones, Senior Security Advisor at Tanium, who joined me on Tech Talks Daily to share why he believes cybersecurity is fundamentally a people problem dressed up as a technology problem. Dan brings nearly three decades of experience in cyber operations, including leading cyber defence strategy for the UK Ministry of Defence. His career has shown him that technology alone doesn’t

Some interviews stick because they take a noisy topic and bring it back to reality. This was one of them. I spoke with Erin Gajdalo, CEO of Pluralsight, about what it actually takes to upskill a workforce in an AI era that seems to change by the week. We compared boardroom intent with day-to-day practice, and Erin was refreshingly clear about both. Pluralsight began more than twenty years ago in classrooms, moved online as the market shifted, and now supports Fortune 500 teams with expert-led

Here’s the thing. We have had brilliant ideas in Web3 for years, along with better tooling and plenty of enthusiasm, yet adoption still feels slower than it should be. In my conversation with Maciej Baj, founder of t3rn, we got under the skin of why that is and what it might take to change the pace. His starting point is simple to state and hard to deliver at scale: make cross-chain interactions feel seamless for users and predictable for developers. If you can do that, the door opens to practical

With more than 37 years of experience as a trader, stockbroker, technologist, and educator, Eddie has built his career around one mission: helping traders cut

Most conversations about AI are still caught up in the spectacle. We see demos, marvel at copilots, and argue about the latest big model. But what happens when you strip away the hype and focus on AI that simply works? That is exactly the perspective Olga Lagunova brings to this episode. As Chief Product and Technology Officer at GoTo, she has one goal in mind: make AI useful, practical, and almost invisible. Olga believes the real test of AI is whether it integrates seamlessly into workflows. In

I wanted this conversation to do two things at once. First, ground the hype in real practice. Second, show how a small country can punch well above its weight by connecting industry, academia, and government with purpose. With Chantelle Kiernan from IDA Ireland and Stephen Flanagan from Eli Lilly and Company, we explored what digital transformation really looks like on the factory floor in Ireland, why talent is the engine behind it, and how cross-sector collaboration is turning ideas into

That is the question I put to Wan Agus, Head of Engineering at Intuit Credit Karma, in this episode of Tech Talks Daily. Most of us open the Credit Karma app to check our credit score, look at a loan option, or browse for a better credit card. What we rarely consider is the technology running behind the curtain.
