[Video Podcast] Agentic Systems without Chaos: Early Operating Models for Autonomous Agents
In this episode, Shweta Vohra and Joseph Stein explore what changes when software systems start planning, acting, and making decisions on their own. The conversation distinguishes truly agentic use cases from traditional automation and looks at how architects and engineers should think about boundaries, orchestration, and system design in this new environment.

[Video Podcast] AI Autonomy is Redefining Architecture: Boundaries Now Matter Most
This conversation explores why generative AI is not just another automation layer but a shift into autonomy. The key idea is that we cannot retrofit AI into old procedural workflows and expect it to behave. Once autonomy is introduced, systems will drift, show emergent behaviour, and act in ways we did not explicitly script.
