In this episode of the AI Agents Podcast, host Demetri Panici sits down with Dror Asaf, co-founder and CTO of Coval, to talk about what it actually takes to bring agentic AI into enterprise operations. They get into why supply chain and operations are still surprisingly archaic, why trust and security are some of the biggest blockers to adoption, and how enterprise teams can use AI to remove bottlenecks without removing human decision-making.
Dror also shares how Coval is approaching enterprise AI differently, from on-prem deployments and Microsoft Teams integrations to strong governance and compliance layers. They also dig into the future of jobs, why AI will likely reshape work more than eliminate it, and why the people who know how to leverage these tools will have a massive advantage going forward.
