Podcast Overview

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.

The conversation digs into the modernization paradox, where 92% of leaders call AI critical yet fewer than a quarter have systems ready to support it. Lydia unpacks why AI adoption really comes down to people, context, and junk data, how regulated industries must balance legacy storage against the cloud, and why not every task needs an LLM. She also reveals how her team keeps client data out of public models, and offers a candid look at the human cost of AI-driven layoffs.</p>

LLM-Powered Data Pipelines

<p>In this episode of<a href="https://techunhinged.com/"> <u>TechUnhinged</u></a>, host <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rabia-javeed/"><u>Rabia Javeed</u></a> sits down with<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/colinsky/"> <u>Chris Colinsky</u></a>, CTO and Principal AI Engineer at <a href="https://www.howl.link/"><u>Howl</u></a>, which has been building for the web since 2003 and is the creator of the open-source OpenArmature framework for LLM-powered pipelines. Chris cuts through the AI hype, arguing that large language models are pattern matching at scale, probabilistic, confidently wrong, and only as reliable as the engineering around them. He explains why most AI failures are really data quality problems, why legacy system modernization must precede AI adoption, and how his &quot;calculate first, reason second&quot; approach builds reliable AI systems on unpredictable models. From graph-based retrieval to self-hosted small models, this conversation is a practical playbook for taking AI from demo to production.</p><p><br></p>

The Future of AI in Sports Technology

<p>In this episode of <a href="https://techunhinged.com/"><u>TechUnhinged</u></a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jgrossman/"><u>Joel Grossman</u></a>, CIO of IMG Academy and a 25-year veteran of technology leadership at Legacy.com, iProspect, and Leapfrog Online, explores what happens when frontier AI meets a 20-year-old recruiting platform and a 500-acre training campus. He argues that AI has erased the multi-year data-warehousing work once needed to make it useful, compressing it into weeks. Further, Joel warns the bottleneck in AI adoption is now organizational, not technical, legacy systems must be modernized without disrupting the families relying on them. His emphasis is to give domain experts direct AI access first, wrap it in production-grade security second, then scale safely. Speed does not equal judgment, and adversarial review must stay central, not a checkbox.</p>
