Tech isn't built by logos. It's built by people. Tired, brilliant, stubborn people who refuse to quit at 2 AM. We hunt down the unsung heroes. The engineer who saved the company overnight. The developer who rewrote legacy hell. The IT leader no one sees until everything breaks. We bring you raw stories no one else has heard. The kind that don't make headlines but change everything. This is where the real story lives. In the messy, human, beautiful chaos of building the future.
In this episode of TechUnhinged (https://techunhinged.com/), host Rabia Javeed (https://www.linkedin.com/in/rabia-javeed/) sits down with David (DJ) Morimanno (https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmorimanno/), Field CTO for North America at Xalient (https://xalient.com/), who advises Fortune 500 companies on identity. DJ argues that an AI agent should be governed like a digital worker, judged on why it acted, not only what it can access. They cover AI agent governance, privileged access management, agent ownership models, and the first moves for a company going AI first. DJ also explains why buying a tool before sizing the problem stalls identity programs, and why every user, human or not, now counts as privileged.

Agentic AI and the End of Traditional SaaS
In this episode of TechUnhinged (https://techunhinged.com/), host Ashar Samdani (https://www.linkedin.com/in/asharsamdani/) sits down with Sriram Ramanathan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sriram-ramanathan-109b1b4b/), Group CTO at XBP Global (https://xbpglobal.com/), a workflow automation company operating in 20 countries. Sriram contends that software companies selling licenses are already in trouble, and only those selling outcomes survive. He explains why the gap between agentic AI vs RPA is the difference between a flow that breaks when a button moves and a system that figures things out, why enterprises can skip the API rebuild and point agents at the mess they already have, and how his team now measures agent productivity the same way it measures a human's. He also describes the cluster of nine agents that rewrote his own development process.

The New Rules for the World's Biggest AI Models
In this episode of TechUnhinged (https://techunhinged.com/), host Rabia Javeed (https://www.linkedin.com/in/rabia-javeed/) sits down with Risto Uuk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ristouuk/), Head of European Policy and Research at the Future of Life Institute (https://futureoflife.org/), who has spent five years on the Act's general-purpose AI rules. Risto argues that the rules for the biggest models are not the weak point; the open question is whether anyone will enforce them. He explains why training compute is a proxy for danger rather than a measure, why the Code of Practice was built from the labs' own safety frameworks, and how the rules reach a company with no office in Europe. He also walks through the agent that broke out of a test environment and hacked third-party infrastructure.
