Everyone is racing to do something with agentic AI. Almost nobody is asking whether they should. Andreas Welsch spent close to two decades building enterprise AI at SAP, and he is now one of the most direct voices on what agentic AI demands from business leaders.In this episode of the Data Faces Podcast, David Sweenor and Andreas Welsch talk about the contagion driving AI layoffs, the revenue question leaders keep skipping, the truth about "SaaS is dead," and why agent risk compounds as you add more agents. It is a candid conversation about keeping human judgment in the loop while the hype runs ahead of reality.Key takeaways1. AI layoffs spread like a contagion, one announcement at a time, even when the value case is unproven.2. The question that saves money and sanity is "should we?" not "can we?"3. Rebuilding SaaS yourself is possible, but you pay subscriptions for convenience, maintenance, and peace of mind.4. The bigger prize is revenue and growth, not another round of cost cuts.5. Agentic AI is a probabilistic system that can be confidently wrong, and risk compounds as agents multiply.Chapters (estimated from the transcript, verify against the recording)- 00:00 Intro- 01:01 What Intelligence Briefing does- 01:48 From pediatrician dreams to taking apart RC cars- 03:45 Leaving SAP and becoming the CXO of everything- 10:40 The layoffs vicious cycle and the revenue question- 13:58 Pilots versus production- 21:37 "SaaS is dead" and vibe-coding clones of DocuSign and Mentimeter- 25:00 When to defer risk to a vendor- 27:57 Just because you can does not mean you should- 32:47 Editing a book with three custom GPTs- 36:12 The conventional wisdom that is wrongLinksRead the full blog: https://tinytechguides.com/blog/andreas-welsch-agentic-ai-human-edge/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=ep41-andreas-welsch&utm_content=description Connect with Andreas Welsch: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreasmwelsch Intelligence Briefing: https://intelligence-briefing.com
