Hosted by former CNN anchor Zain Verjee, "Embedded" features conversations with industry leaders including LinkedIn's Chief Economic Opportunity Officer Aneesh Raman, Mastercard's Senior Counsel for Artificial Intelligence Rashida Richardson, and Indigenous Knowledge Scholar Wakanyi Hoffman. The series explores AI's impact on communication, the global workforce, ethical frameworks, and the integration of African philosophical principles in artificial intelligence.

"AI will transform the world of journalism and communications. Through Embedded, we're making these transformative innovations accessible to everyone, helping professionals understand not just the technology but its impact on how we communicate and connect," says Verjee.

‘Embedded' bridges the gap between complex AI technology and practical applications in communications, offering listeners actionable insights from the frontlines of the AI revolution. Each episode explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping our world and what it means for the future of human interaction.

Thomas Brasington, co-founder of The Rundown Studio, emphasizes the series' unique approach: "AI can code and run chatbots - that's the easy part. In Embedded, we're testing it against the real challenges of global communications: truth, nuance, and cultural context - and it may not be what you expect."

10 new episodes of "Embedded" will be released weekly on all major podcast platforms.
