How AI & Predictive Tech Are Transforming Wildfire Protection with Sunny Sethi

Wildfires are becoming more frequent—and far more destructive—damaging critical infrastructure from substations and hospitals to telecommunications and water systems. The problem isn’t a shortage of firefighters; it’s that our current technology is outdated and no longer equipped for today’s escalating risks.In this episode, Sunny Sethi, CEO of HEN Technologies, explains why resilience can’t rely on emergency response alone. Instead, we need a shift toward “smart” fire defense—systems that are predictive, adaptive, and fully integrated into modern infrastructure.We explore the limits of traditional, reactive firefighting and what it will take to move from protection to prevention. From AI-driven risk detection to next-generation fire suppression technologies, this conversation looks at how innovation can help safeguard communities and critical systems in the face of climate-driven wildfire threats.
