  • Stop Handing Out Matches: A Responsible AI Strategy for Teams

    Stop Handing Out Matches: A Responsible AI Strategy for Teams
    Jun 26 2026
    Travis, Marcus, and Reyna dig into the real environmental cost of how companies are deploying AI today — and why handing every employee a license isn't a strategy, it's chaos with a subscription fee. They make the case for a more intentional, team-first approach: dial in the workflow first, then use AI to build the automation that supports it. Less token waste, more actual leverage.

  • AI Can't Fix That: Real Situations Where the Bot Wasn't the Answer

    AI Can't Fix That: Real Situations Where the Bot Wasn't the Answer
    May 7 2026
    Travis, Marcus, and Reyna dig into the 'AI can do everything' mentality spreading through tech culture — and push back with real situations where AI wasn't the full answer. From legal edge cases to emotional escalations to systems that broke the moment reality showed up, the group explores what AI still can't replace and why knowing the difference is the actual skill. No hype, no doom — just honest reckoning with what the tools can and can't do.

Travis, Marcus, and Reyna make the case for the fractional AI executive: a single embedded role that owns both strategy and execution, powered by AI infrastructure instead of headcount. If you've ever paid for a consultant, a PM, and a dev team simultaneously, this one's for you.
