This episode of Reflect dives into the double-edged fear surrounding the rise of agentic AI: at the enterprise level, the panic is about security, governance, and control. At the personal level, the fear is career disruption—what happens when the machine can do your job? We unpack both sides, laying out how organizations can put real guardrails around AI systems and how individuals can transform uncertainty into leverage. The conversation also tackles the looming existential question: will AI inevitably slip beyond humanity’s control? The answers are candid, factual, and designed to give clarity where hype and fear often dominate.
