Season 1. Episode 3. Unscripted with Zach Elewitz

Zachary Elewitz runs the enterprise AI lab at McKesson, a Fortune 10 healthcare company, where his team exists to de-risk the boldest AI ideas by building prototypes that prove value before the business commits resources. In this episode he offers the rare view from the buyer's seat: why the "we'll all be AI product managers" narrative is overblown, why he discounts what CEOs say publicly, and how an unflashy supply chain optimization saved eight figures a year with no disruption. He and Jeff dig into what executives actually want from AI (revenue and better ways of serving customers, not layoffs), the discipline of admissible risk and naming the failures you are willing to tolerate, how AI is changing customer behavior from "where should I buy" to "what should I buy," how he separates real vendors from buzzword artists, and why quantum computing and post-quantum cryptography are the thing too few people are watching.
