John Hartigan, CEO of Lumineo, returns to Austin Tech Connect to share what has changed since his 2023 visit and how his team fully pivoted into AI for corporate learning.
Host Thom Singer, talks to John about practical wins over hype, from improving content creation and microlearning workflows to blending live action with AI avatars, and what is coming next with interactive AI tutors. John explains where AI saves time, where humans add the creative spark, and why, in his words, "mediocrity is now free." We dig into leadership, retraining teams, prompt skills, and ethical transparency around synthetic voices and video.
Thom adds how he uses AI for ideation without outsourcing his voice, and the two compare notes on blind spots, communication tone, and building trust in an AI driven world. We close with the impact on the Austin tech ecosystem, why early stage founders now have unprecedented tools, and an open invite to connect with Lumineo, to share this episode with your team, and to show up at ATC events where human interaction stays front and center.
