Send a text Sean is mysteriously absent (global tour? Carmen Sandiego arc? Grain Gang business trip?), so Ian sits down with Ari for a behind-the-scenes look at Ari’s Fortune 500 AI advisement. What starts as “we need an AI strategy” quickly turns into something far more important: figuring out who owns AI and how to drive real outcomes. Additionally, please stick around for a very important announcement after the interview.
Send a text Sean and Ari sit down with Bob Strong, AVP of Service Operations at Assurant, to talk about what it really looks like to run IT service teams in an AI-first world.

Send a text In this episode, CCO Sean Heuer and COO Ari Stowe take on a favorite enterprise myth: that you need “prerequisites” like perfect data, governance, and cultural readiness before you can adopt agentic AI. They also get into guardrails vs. overengineering, how agentic AI reshapes architects and project managers, and why “agent societies” might be closer than you think.

Send a text In this episode, CEO Sean Heuer and COO Ari Stowe dig into whether today’s so-called “AI agents” are actually agentic… or just glorified chatbots riding the hype.
