First, Imogen Wethered of EnableAll explains how AI-powered accessibility tools are helping people with disabilities navigate the web more easily, while also improving SEO and boosting business conversion rates through better metadata, interface design, and compliance with accessibility standards. Then, Tyler Akidau, CTO of Redpanda Data, examines the challenges of building and governing agentic AI systems in the enterprise. He breaks down why AI agents behave more like unpredictable "digital coworkers" than traditional software, and why organizations must rely on external guardrails, observability, and infrastructure-level governance to keep these systems safe, reliable, and effective at scale.
