III: Culture vs Code, Rethinking Strategy & Leadership in the AI Era, LIVE with Ryan Abel, Managing Partner, Atomic Object
In this special LIVE episode of the RIoT Underground, RIoT’s Tom Snyder sits down with Ryan Abel, Managing Director at Atomic Object, to explore the real-world impact of AI, how companies are navigating the hype, and why culture and values matter more than ever in the age of automation.
As AI rewrites the rules of business, the real question isn’t what you’ll automate — it’s who your company will become in the process.
Ryan draws from deep experience at the intersection of leadership, innovation, and human-centered technology to tackle a challenge many leaders are only beginning to face: how to move fast without losing what makes your company worth building.
Whether you're a tech founder, developer, startup enthusiast, or enterprise leader, this episode delivers valuable insights into how AI is reshaping the tech landscape—and what it means for the future of work.
