ManageEngine in Vegas, Part 2: Where AI Anxiety Meets Real-World Wisdom

We’re back in Las Vegas for Part 2 of our live series from the ManageEngine User Conference, this time shifting from the conference floor to the hallways, lobby couches, and those slightly delirious late-night conversations fueled entirely by hotel coffee. Part 1 focused on how ManageEngine builds trust from the inside. Part 2 flips the perspective outward, bringing in three very different voices: an AI governance advisor, an innovation leader, and a veteran tech journalist, all wrestling with how AI, security, and trust are colliding across the industry. It’s a grounded, candid look at what people are really thinking about AI right now, far beyond the keynote slides and vendor hype. (And yes, all three guests happen to be named Alex. I promise we didn’t plan that.)
