What I found was a story about building core technology that serves real creative workflows, not the other way around.

Artificial intelligence is no longer confined to experiments in labs or one-off pilot projects. For many enterprises, it is becoming the backbone of how they operate, innovate, and compete.

From Pinterest and Airbnb to Kumo AI: Reinventing Enterprise AI
Tech Talks Daily
Here’s the thing. Most enterprise AI talk today starts with chatbots and ends with glossy demos. Meanwhile, the data that actually runs a business lives in rows, columns, and time stamps. That gap is where my conversation with Vanja Josifovski, CEO of Kumo AI really comes alive. Vanja has spent two and a half decades helping companies turn data into decisions, from research roles at Yahoo and Google to steering product and engineering at Pinterest through its IPO and later leading Airbnb Homes. He’s now building Kumo AI to answer an old question with a new approach: how do you get...

Inside Audi’s Smart Factory Vision at VMware Explore
Tech Talks Daily
Factories don’t usually make headlines at tech conferences, but what Audi is doing inside its production labs is anything but ordinary. At VMware Explore in Las Vegas, I sat down with Dr. Henning Löser, Head of the Audi Production Lab, to talk about how the automaker is reinventing its factory floor with a software-first mindset. Henning leads a small team he jokingly calls “the nerds of production,” but their work is changing how cars are built.

AlgoSec on AI, Automation, and the Next Era of Network Management
Tech Talks Daily
The enterprise network is under pressure like never before. Hybrid environments, cloud migrations, edge deployments, and the sudden surge in AI workloads have made it increasingly difficult to keep application connectivity secure and reliable. The old model of device-by-device, rule-based network management can’t keep up with today’s hyperconnected, API-driven world. In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Kyle Wickert, Field Chief Technology Officer at AlgoSec, to discuss the future of network management in the age of platformization. With more than a decade at AlgoSec and...
info_outlineWhat if meetings stopped draining your time and instead became engines for action? That’s the question driving Christoph Fleischmann, CEO of Arthur AI, and the conversation in today’s episode of Tech Talks Daily. Christoph has spent his career at the intersection of human potential and technology, and now he’s leading a company that wants to change how enterprises actually get work done.
Arthur AI isn’t another tool to add to the stack. It’s a digital co-worker—an intelligent presence that joins meetings, captures knowledge, and keeps teams aligned across time zones and formats. Whether in XR spaces, on the web, or through conversational interfaces, Arthur AI blends real-time and asynchronous collaboration. The aim is to replace endless, inefficient meetings with something more dynamic: an environment where humans and AI collaborate side by side to deliver outcomes.
This conversation goes beyond theory. Christoph shares how Fortune 500 companies are already using Arthur AI to align global strategies, manage complex transformations, and modernize learning and development programs. He explains how their platform is built on enterprise-grade security and a flexible, LLM-agnostic architecture—critical foundations for companies wary of vendor lock-in or compliance risks.
We also touch on the cultural shift of inviting AI to take a real seat at the table. From interviewing and project management to knowledge sharing, Arthur AI represents a new category of work experience, one where digital co-workers support people rather than replace them.
For leaders tired of meetings that go nowhere and knowledge trapped in silos, this episode offers a glimpse of what smarter, faster collaboration looks like at scale. Could the blueprint for the future of digital work already be here?
