In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Artur d'Avila Garcez, Professor of Computer Science at City, St George's University of London, and one of the early pioneers of neurosymbolic AI. Our conversation cuts through the noise around ever-larger language models and focuses on a deeper question many leaders are now grappling with. If scale alone cannot deliver reliability,...

Why does healthcare keep investing in new technology while so many clinicians feel buried under paperwork and admin work that has nothing to do with patient care? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Dr. Rihan Javid, psychiatrist, former attorney, and co-founder and president of Edge. Our conversation cuts straight into an issue that rarely gets the attention it deserves, the quiet toll that administrative overload takes on doctors, care teams, and ultimately patients. Nearly half of physicians now link burnout to paperwork rather than clinical work, and Rihan explains why this...

What happens when power, rather than compute, becomes the limiting factor for AI, robotics, and industrial automation? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Ramesh Narasimhan from Nyobolt to unpack a challenge that is quietly reshaping modern infrastructure. As AI training and inference workloads grow more dynamic, power demand is no longer predictable or steady. It can spike and drop in milliseconds, creating stress on systems that were never designed for this level of volatility. We talk about why data center operators, automation leaders, and industrial firms are being forced...

What happens when AI stops talking and starts working, and who really owns the value it creates? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Sina Yamani, founder and CEO of Action Model, for a conversation that cuts straight to one of the biggest questions hanging over the future of artificial intelligence. As AI systems learn to see screens, click buttons, and complete tasks the way humans do, power and wealth are concentrating fast. Sina argues that this shift is happening far quicker than most people realize, and that the current ownership model leaves everyday users with...

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Pegasystems leaders Dan Kasun, Head of Global Partner Ecosystem, and John Higgins, Chief of Client and Partner Success, to unpack why legacy modernization has reached a breaking point, and why AI is forcing enterprises to rethink how software is designed, sold, and delivered. Our conversation goes beyond surface-level AI promises and gets into the practical reality of transformation, partner economics, and what...

What actually happens when a company loses control of its own voice in a world full of channels, platforms, and constant noise? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Joshua Altman, founder of beltway.media, to unpack what corporate communication really means in 2026 and why it has quietly become one of the most misunderstood leadership functions inside modern organizations. Joshua describes his work as a fractional chief communications officer, a role that sits above individual campaigns, tools, or channels and focuses instead on perception, trust, and consistency across...
