In this inaugural episode of "Human in the Loop," we dive into the transformative potential of AI through the expert perspectives of RUSH's technology leaders, Danu and Hamish, moderated by brand and marketing leader Alaina. The episode cuts through tech buzzwords and media hype to deliver an honest, accessible conversation about what AI realistically means for New Zealand businesses today and in the near future.This episode examines the current capabilities and limitations of AI technologies, offering a pragmatic view of implementation challenges, and exploring how organisations can responsibly integrate AI into their operations. Listeners will gain insights into how AI is reshaping software engineering and what that means for their technology investments and team structures.What makes this episode unique is its no-nonsense approach to complex technology concepts. Rather than presenting AI as either a magical solution or an existential threat, our experts bring grounded expertise and real-world experience to help business leaders make informed decisions. Hamish's candid assessment of AI's "jagged edge" capabilities and Danu's practical security insights create a balanced picture of both opportunities and challenges.Resources, sources and corrections:CADA stations AI host:https://www.smh.com.au/culture/tv-and-radio/thy-has-been-on-the-radio-for-six-months-turns-out-she-isn-t-real-20250424-p5ltxi.htmlUAE Launches World’s First AI-Powered Regulatory Intelligence Ecosystem:https://babl.ai/uae-launches-worlds-first-ai-powered-regulatory-intelligence-ecosystem/Microdeaths / Micromort: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicromortFollow us on Instagram: @humaninthelooppodcastFind us on LinkedIn:Alaina: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alaina-luxmoore/Hamish: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hafriedlander/Danu: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danuabey/Sign up to The RUSH newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hmARzLEmail
