In this episode of the Security Nation Podcast, ESA sits down with AI strategist Jeff Schatten, Ph.D., keynote speaker for the upcoming ESX OpenXChange Breakfast, to discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming the electronic security industry.

Jeff shares practical insights on where AI stands today, where adoption is heading next, and how integrators and monitoring providers can start using AI to improve efficiency, decision-making, and business performance. The conversation also explores the risks companies face if they ignore the accelerating role of AI in operations and service delivery.

Note: There is a brief section where the audio becomes choppy due to a connection issue during recording. From approximately 2:33 to 4:00, Jeff’s audio cuts in and out slightly.
