Generative and agentic AI are moving into production faster than governance, security, and economics can keep up. Hosted by industry analyst, Field CTO Andy Thurai and attorney/entrepreneur Isvari Maranwe, A.I. on AI cuts through vendor marketing to explore the real-world architecture, ethical guardrails, non-human identity risks, and boardroom accountability required to build AI systems that actually survive enterprise scale. Every week, we bring together builders, policymakers, enterprise leaders, and everyday end-users to discuss how to build systems that are safe, auditable, and accountable.
From frontline engineers to everyday citizens, we feature voices from all walks of life. If you know someone who should be on the show, nominate a guest here .
