The AI Risk Boards Get Wrong — feat. David Subar (Interna) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The view from the board seat: why the biggest AI risk isn't a bad model — it's moving too slowly while your competitors learn faster. Alex Belotsky and co-host Kuba sit down with David Subar, founder of the LA consultancy Interna and a veteran board advisor, to unpack how AI is reshaping the decisions made in the boardroom. David argues that boards don't care which tool writes the code — they care about value creation and risk, the same math whether you ship in assembly or with Claude Code. He f
Guarding the Henhouse: Testing AI in Regulated Industries — feat. Erick Herring (Vynyl) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When your chatbot answers legal or medical questions, "close enough" isn't a spec — it's a lawsuit. Erick Herring of Vynyl joins Kuba and Alex to unpack what it actually takes to build and assure LLM-based systems for healthcare, lending, insurance and legal clients. Drawing on a career that spans punch cards, the birth of the commercial web and today's AI frenzy, Erick argues that the fundamentals of accountability haven't changed — but the way we hold code writers (now AI) accountable has, ope
QA vs QE: Engineering Quality Into Non-Deterministic AI — feat. Janna Loeffler (Quality Engineering Leader) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When your system gives a different answer every time, "assuring" quality is a trap — you have to engineer it in. Janna Loeffler joins Alex and Kuba to unpack why the shift from quality assurance to quality engineering (and even "quality enablement") matters more than ever in the age of LLMs and agents. She argues that AI didn't kill the tester's job — it made human insight, risk judgement and context-driven thinking essential, because non-deterministic output turns testing from clean pass/fail i
Why 80% of Companies Fail at AI — feat. Jonathon Wright (World Digital Report) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone says they're "doing AI" — but only 5% are actually getting measurable value, and the gap is where careers and companies quietly die. Jonathon Wright, Chief AI Officer at the World Digital Report, joins Alex and Kuba to unpack the report's blunt headline: 80% of enterprises use AI somewhere, yet only 5–10% see real, measurable value. Drawing on four decades in automation and AI-driven quality engineering, Jonathon traces the shift from single-prompt "LLM as a hammer" thinking to agentic
Will AI Replace QA Teams? The Human Case for Testers in the Age of Agents — feat. Bill Kirst (Adobe) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
AI can write your test cases and watch your screen — but Adobe's AI ambassador argues it will never replace the human who asks the question no one else thought to ask. Alex and Kuba sit down with Bill Kirst — AI ambassador and change manager at Adobe, two-time author, podcast host and U.S. Army veteran — to unpack what generative AI actually does to QA and testing teams. Bill argues that the change-management playbooks that worked for 30 or 40 years of ERP rollouts break down when every user has
