In the article published in Solutions Review, Anand S, "LLM Psychologist" at Straive, explores a contrarian idea: that the future of software talent may depend less on writing code and more on effective collaboration with AI. The article challenges traditional assumptions about hiring, assessments, and software engineering in an era where AI coding agents can outperform humans on many conventional benchmarks. Drawing from real-world experiences with interns, enterprise AI adoption, and insights from leaders across the industry, Anand argues that the key question is no longer: Can you write code? But rather: Can you define problems, guide AI, evaluate outputs, and take ownership of results? As AI reshapes how software is built, organizations must rethink how they develop the next generation of engineers, architects, and technology leaders.

Arindam Roy, Client Partner at Straive, was recently featured in The Economic Times, breaking down a massive shift in enterprise tech: “Beyond Automation: Why Logistics Firms Are Betting on Agentic AI.” Arindam perfectly captures why Agentic AI is a game-changer: “You give it an objective, not a script. The system then reasons across data sources, selects the right tools, takes action, and continuously adjusts.” For dynamic sectors like logistics and supply chain, moving past rigid, rule-based automation isn't just an upgrade; it's a necessity. Agentic AI allows systems to adapt, decide, and evolve in real time. Read the article: economictimes.indiatimes.com… #AgenticAI #SupplyChain #Logistics #EnterpriseAI #DigitalTransformation #Straive

Straive recently engaged in a technical strategy session with @nvidia to explore the future of scalable enterprise AI and intelligent content transformation. The discussion focused on leveraging NVIDIA’s AI blueprints and Microsoft Azure integration to accelerate enterprise AI deployment, optimize model performance, and enable production-ready workflows at scale. One key takeaway: adopting reusable AI blueprints can significantly shorten implementation timelines while improving scalability and operational efficiency. We also explored opportunities to build open-source reference frameworks, streamline metadata structuring, and strengthen enterprise-ready AI offerings through the NVIDIA ecosystem. Exciting collaborations ahead as we continue driving innovation in AI-powered content and data transformation. #Straive #NVIDIA #EnterpriseAI #GenerativeAI #AITransformation #AzureAI

"AI isn't replacing expertise. It's amplifying it." That was the defining takeaway from the SSP 2026 Previews Session and AI Roundtable, where our discussions focused on the realities of operationalizing AI across scholarly publishing. Together, we explored how forward-thinking organizations are balancing automation with human oversight to address complex, real-world challenges: Scalable Compliance & Accessibility. Meeting rigid standards at pace. Content Workflows. Modernizing pipelines for scale & efficiency. New Opportunities. Creating new revenue streams through content licensing and derivate products. The sessions reinforced a critical truth: AI alone doesn't drive transformation. Success comes from combining AI capabilities with domain expertise, governance, and operational excellence to deliver meaningful outcomes.. Thank you to everyone who shared perspectives, challenged assumptions, and contributed to such engaging conversations. The energy, openness, and practical insights exchanged throughout the sessions were a powerful reminder that our industry is not only embracing change, but actively shaping what's next. #SSP2026 #ScholarlyPublishing #AI #GenerativeAI #Accessibility #ContentOperations #DigitalTransformation #OperationalExcellence #PublishingInnovation

What does it actually take to operationalize AI, and do it fast? Our customers don't care about data, AI, or PhDs. They care about impact. Ankor Rai, in conversation with AIM Research, cuts straight to it: the clarity of the business outcome and the desire to move quickly. That's the Straive story. In just 7 to 14 days, an idea becomes a proof of concept. That's not a pitch. That's the model.

AI in publishing is no longer a future conversation. It’s an operational challenge. As we head to #SSP2026, one thing is clear: adapting to AI isn’t just about tools. It’s about rethinking how content is created, validated, and delivered at scale. With this year’s focus on Integrity and Adaptation, the real opportunity lies in aligning innovation with trust. At Straive, the goal isn’t just to use AI. It’s to make it work reliably in production environments. We’re looking forward to connecting with peers and partners in San Diego. What does “responsible AI adoption” look like in your organization today?

AI in supply chains is advancing fast, but many deployments still fail to deliver real value. In a recent conversation with Arindam Roy (VP, Client Partner at Straive), one thing stood out clearly: the problem isn’t weak AI models, it’s fragmented data. Disconnected systems, inconsistent formats, and unclear data ownership are limiting visibility and undermining AI outcomes across logistics. The result? Missed forecasts, operational delays, and reduced resilience. To truly unlock AI’s potential, organizations need to: • Strengthen data governance and accountability • Build interoperable, end-to-end data pipelines • Prioritize visibility and real-time accessibility AI is only as strong as the data behind it.

Enterprise AI isn’t failing; it’s getting stuck at the last mile. The gap between pilots and real-world impact isn’t about technology. It’s about execution, decision-making, and organizational alignment. So what sets successful companies apart? Rapid iteration Decentralized ownership Embedding AI into real workflows That’s how you move from experimentation to measurable impact. In this guest blog on Techstrong AI, our CEO Ankor Rai shares what it really takes to scale AI in the enterprise. `Read the article here :techstrong.ai/features/the-a… #Straive #TechstrongAI #EnterpriseAI #AIAtScale #AITransformation #DecisionIntelligence #DataAnalytics #DataDrivenDecisions #AIExecution #DigitalTransformation #EnterpriseTechnology #AILeadership #DataStrategy #AIAdoption #IntelligentAutomation #MachineLearning #BusinessTransformation #AIUseCases #FutureOfAI #TechLeadership
