• Can Legal Teams Keep Up with AI Risk?
    Mar 2 2026

    Dave Nicholson sits down with Bill Price—longtime tech executive, general counsel, and AI governance expert—to unpack how legal teams keep pace with AI deployment.

    Bill shares why legal must become a business partner, how to vet vendors when indemnification and data privacy matter, and what to do when AI tools hallucinate.

    If you’re rolling out AI inside a large enterprise, this is the conversation you need to hear.

  • Oleg Dulin on AI in the Software Development Lifecycle
    Feb 23 2026

    AI hype is everywhere. But what’s actually happening inside engineering teams?

    In the first episode of Reality Check, Dave Nicholson speaks with Oleg Dulin about how AI is actually being deployed inside the software development lifecycle. This is not a vendor showcase. It’s a frontline discussion about productivity, platform pressure, hyperscalers, and the human implications of AI adoption.

    Oleg explains why the ability for AI tools to ingest large codebases was the real unlock, how these tools are integrating into CI/CD and collaboration workflows, and why enterprises still “piloting” AI in 2026 may already be behind.

    The conversation also explores:

    • Pressure on SaaS vendors to become platforms
    • Whether hyperscalers are innovating fast enough
    • The shift from coding to architecture and systems thinking
    • Organizational change and upskilling challenges
    • Why AI replacing developers is the wrong narrative
