Description

This week on UnHacked, we’re talking with Brad Groux (cybersecurity engineer, tech founder, and co-host of The Digital Meld podcast) about how AI is quietly shaping how we build, manage, and lead our businesses.

From SMBs to the enterprise, Brad has worked with it all. In this episode, we break down:

  • Why we’re already outsourcing leadership decisions to AI (and what to do about it)
  • How SMBs can avoid tech fatigue while still innovating
  • The new risks AI introduces, and how to defend against them
  • Why cybersecurity and business growth are now inseparable

Whether you're an MSP, a manufacturer, or a business owner trying to stay ahead of the tech curve, this episode gives you a candid look at what’s coming next and how to lead through it.
