The most interesting work around AI doesn’t occur at the height of the hype cycle.

Kence Anderson has watched promising ideas overperform in demos, underperform in reality, and eventually re-emerge as something more modest and more useful. This episode focuses on that middle ground, where engineering judgment replaces speculation and progress looks slower than the headlines suggest.

An engineer who led autonomous systems work at Microsoft and now runs AMESA, Kence brings that experience into A3’s Designing Industrial AI Agents course.
