He is a former researcher at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). He sees great potential for technology to impact people if it is married with purpose. He founded Problem Solutions because he believes that if people articulate the problem well enough, the solution will appear in the middle of it. The company focuses on design and innovation for applying emerging technology to an organizational challenge or to spur business growth. They leverage elite talent, vast experience, creativity, and imagination to solve complex problems and create award-winning products and custom solutions for mobile, tablets, wearables, remote sensors, and desktops.🔑 Key Takeaways✅ Energy + persistence aren’t just quotes—they’re execution principles that drive long-term impact✅ The real power of technology comes from amplifying human capability, not replacing it✅ Clearly defining the problem is the fastest way to unlock meaningful, scalable solutions✅ The future isn’t AI vs. humans—it’s high-performing human + AI teams✅ Most companies fail at AI because they adopt tools without redesigning how people work✅ Misaligned AI creates friction, not efficiency—workflow and decision-making must evolve together✅ Innovation fails when organizations ignore the human experience behind the technology✅ Scaling AI requires a new operating model + leadership system, not just new tools✅ Talent development will shift toward continuous learning embedded in daily work✅ Leaders feeling behind on AI should start with understanding their workflows, not the technology✅ “Accelerating human potential” means designing systems where people do their highest-value work—supported by AI🎙️The Human + AI Connection  📍Podcast Location: Umatta Consulting on Spotify📅Apr 27 |⏰8:00 AM EST 💡Mike Hruska, Enabling Human Flourishing | Baryons (co-founder)🔗 Follow us on Spotify here:https://lnkd.in/e3Bk_su6If you’re a leader, founder, or executive thinking about the future of your organization, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.#FutureOfWork #ArtificialIntelligence #Leadership #HumanCenteredAI #ExecutiveStrategy #UmattaConsulting #Podcast
