AI agents aren’t here to replace humans — they’re here to supercharge them.

In today’s episode of the AI Agents Podcast, host Demetri Panici sits down with Dikshant Dave, Founder & CEO of Zigment, an AI-powered agentic customer-journey platform helping businesses scale, automate workflows, and boost conversion rates without removing the human element.

We dive deep into the evolution of AI agents, how autonomy changed everything, the limitations of traditional chatbots, and why sentiment-aware agentic systems represent the next frontier of customer engagement and sales automation.

Whether you’re in SaaS, e-commerce, marketing, or AI development — this conversation will reshape how you think about AI in business.
