AI-Augmented Students and Digital Resilience | Oct 26, 2026 | Embracing Digital This Week

This week, I had the opportunity to speak at the California State University AI Student Success Symposium, where we explored what it really means to create AI-Augmented Students. One of the things I've been emphasizing is that AI literacy alone isn't enough. Students need to develop four complementary skills: AI skills, subject matter expertise, core skills, and meta skills. The challenge for universities isn't just teaching students how to use AI tools. It's rethinking how we educate, assess learning, and prepare students to thrive in an AI-augmented workforce. And that's where the concept of the AI-Augmented University comes in. How do we transform not just the student experience, but the faculty, administration, and institution itself? This is something we're actively exploring with universities, and I'm excited about where these conversations are heading.

Human-AI Teamwork at the Edge | Oct 23, 2026 | Embracing Digital This Week Deep Dive

Darren was back in DC this week spreading the word about super intelligence as being more than AI. The convergence of ai augmented humans and ai working together is super intelligence. People are starting to get it. The ai augmented movement is starting to move forward.

Embracing Digital This Week: Deep Dive — Episode 188

This week Darren and Paige got to be with the grandkids in Austin Texas and had a great time with them and Darren and one of his Sons went to the Jack White concert. Great time, but there was a most definite bent on anti AI, and technology at the conference. Something Darren is seeing as a growing trend in many places. People are a bit scared of AI and it replacing jobs. The week was finished up on a more technology focused workshop for Country Court Clerks in Florida where we had a great discussion on how to leverage private Generative AI to help process court documents.

October 9, 2026 | Governance Lag in Government Digital Transformation

Government digital transformation is moving faster than governance, creating unmanaged risk as AI, cybersecurity, and new infrastructure enter live workflows before policy, accountability, and review standards are in place. In this executive architectural brief, Dr. Darren Pulsipher explains why governance lag is a strategic problem, not just an IT issue, and why trust controls, bias review, explainability, and clear decision rights must be built in before scale. The video shows how tool-centric transformation leads to fragmented oversight, weak cyber resilience, and fragile operating models, especially when AI compresses work into fewer people without redesigning roles, quality checks, and escalation paths. It also explores emerging infrastructure challenges like orbital compute, where architecture, regulation, and risk controls must be designed together to avoid a policy vacuum. Leaders will learn why guardrails, named owners, and adaptive governance are essential for safe and scalable public-sector innovation.

October 4, 2026 | AI Governance, Cybersecurity & Digital Transformation News 20...

Digital Transformation for the week of October 5, 2026 including news from Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, Ubiquitous Computing, and Embracing Digital Transformation.AI governance is moving from talk to action as leaders face tighter oversight, sharper scrutiny of bias and accountability, and a growing need to manage AI responsibly while still driving transformation. In the middle of that shift, organizations are only beginning to test AI augmentation in real workflows — a sign that the winners will be those who redesign work, not just automate it.

October 2, 2026 | Government AI and Resilience Strategy for Digital Transformation

Government digital transformation is no longer about separate initiatives for AI, cybersecurity, and resilience. This video explains why leaders must treat edge computing, AI adoption, continuity planning, and cyber resilience as one enterprise strategy. Learn how centralized systems are becoming too slow and brittle for mission-critical work, why AI pilots fail without real workflows and governance, and how shared accountability, decision rights, and operating models determine whether modernization scales or gets stuck in pilot purgatory. Discover the architectural mindset public sector leaders need to build secure, resilient, and fit-to-task digital services.

Digital Transformation for the week of September 28, 2026 including news from Edge Computing, Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, and Embracing Digital Transformation.Edge computing is moving intelligence out of the cloud and closer to where action happens, from neuron-like polymer devices and Intel-powered edge hardware to orbital satellites and military systems built for resilience. It’s a powerful signal that faster, local processing—and the kind of collaboration we’ve seen firsthand through university visits in Ohio and Tennessee—can unlock smarter operations, stronger partnerships, and real-world impact across every sector.

September 25, 2026 | Governance-as-Strategy for Digital Transformation

Discover why governance is now a core operating model for government digital transformation. In this executive architectural brief, Dr. Darren Pulsipher explains how AI governance, cybersecurity governance, cloud governance, and edge computing decisions shape trust, resilience, accountability, and scale. Learn why government transformation fails when decision rights, control ownership, and oversight arrive too late, creating governance lag and pilot purgatory. This video shows how to embed governance into strategy, architecture, and daily operations so digital initiatives can move from experimentation to reliable production with measurable evidence, clear accountability, and stronger public trust.
