What happens when a company stops talking about AI and starts running on it? In this episode of Shimmy Says, Alan “Shimmy” Shimel shares a firsthand look at how Techstrong is deploying agentic AI across real business operations. What started as cautious experimentation has quickly evolved into a major shift in how content, publishing, video workflows, newsletters and internal processes get done. This is not a story about hype, demos or abstract future scenarios. It is a field report from inside a media company actively using AI agents and emerging “computer” platforms to eliminate repetitive work, speed up execution and give teams more leverage. Shimmy breaks down: Why early AI tools felt interesting but limited What changed when agentic AI became truly usable How Techstrong’s team started deploying agents in production Why this is about leverage, not layoffs What leaders should understand right now about the future of work If you are trying to separate AI reality from AI hype, this episode is for you.
