Giving Enterprise AI the Right Business Context With Sphinx AI
About this podcast
What does AI really mean for the modern workplace, and are we ready for what comes next?
AI at Work is a podcast from the Tech Talks Network, the home of conversations that showcase the voices at the heart of enterprise technology. You may know me from Tech Talks Daily, where we explore a different area of innovation in every episode. This show takes a focused look at one of the biggest shifts in business: how artificial intelligence is transforming the way we work.
From intelligent automation to agentic AI and from the promise of workplace efficiency to the risks of unintended consequences, we aim to provide a grounded and accessible perspective on how AI is shaping the future of work.
If you’re using AI in your business or thinking about how to get started, this podcast is your chance to learn from the people already doing it.
