What Does An AI-Enabled Company Look Like?


 
In this episode of The AppleOne Podcast, host Brett Howroyd is joined by co-host Nicole McMurray for a deep dive into the evolving role of artificial intelligence in the workplace. Their guest, AI expert and Model Mind founder Loren Horsager, shares his insights on what it truly means to become an AI-enabled company—and why understanding AI is more important than ever.

With over three decades of experience in AI, Loren breaks down the concept of AI as humanized technology, explaining how organizations can leverage it to enhance—not replace—human roles. He explores the balance between automation and human oversight, emphasizing that AI is a tool for efficiency rather than a job eliminator.
