from Applied Intelligence
Anthony Soohoo, CEO of MoneyGram, joins host Keith Richman to discuss how he is transforming an 80-year-old legacy payments company into an AI-first organization. Anthony shares his practical philosophy on AI adoption: start with a clear problem statement rather than the technology itself, and manually validate workflows before automating them. He explains why enterprise-wide goals must supersede departmental silos and predicts a massive disruption in the enterprise software market where costs drop by 80% while functionality increases tenfold.
