26 JUN. 2025 · In this episode, Lasse Rindom speaks with Surojit Chatterjee, CEO of Ema AI - a platform for building agentic AI employees that automate complex enterprise workflows across systems and departments. The conversation cuts through the hype and dives into real operational challenges of scaling generative AI in the enterprise:
- Why “agent-washing” is the new “AI-washing” - and what truly separates intelligent agents from chatbots and RPA
- The balance between letting agents act autonomously and keeping them purposefully inhibited to ensure trust and control
- How cross-silo AI deployment and change management are becoming more critical than model accuracy
A must-listen if you think your enterprise is AI agent–ready. Are you sure it is?
