Guru CEO: Not Without Human Experts | Rick Nucci

AI tools are powerful. But do they actually know your company? Rick Nucci, CEO of Guru and founder of Boomi, joins The Nick Standlea Show to explain why AI inside companies is much harder than personal productivity with ChatGPT. The models may be capable, but they don’t automatically understand your team, your products, your customers, your pricing, your processes, or the way your company actually works. And that’s where things get dangerous. Rick argues that the future of AI at work depends on accurate company context, verified knowledge, human experts, and leaders who understand that AI should amplify people, not simply replace them. We talk about hallucinations, AI agents, middle management, company culture, vibe coding, token waste, and why some AI rollouts will create real ROI while others will just become expensive distractions. This conversation is about what separates companies that actually benefit from AI from the ones that just buy a bunch of tools and hope something happens.
