iS2 Digital CEO Kevin Goldberg Featured on Gender Tech Podcast to Address AI Adoption for Business Leaders
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Kevin Goldberg Delivers Practical AI Guidance to Global Audience of Entrepreneurs and Executives
BEND, Ore. — June 15, 2026 — iS2 Digital, a business technology agency with more than twenty-five years of experience helping organizations implement practical technology solutions, announced that CEO Kevin Goldberg was featured as a guest on the Gender Tech Podcast, hosted by Ruth Atim. The episode, focused on demystifying artificial intelligence for small and medium-sized business leaders, is now available on YouTube.
The Gender Tech Podcast reaches a global audience of entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals exploring the intersection of technology and gender equity. Atim selected Goldberg to address a persistent challenge facing business leaders: separating AI's genuine business value from the noise surrounding it. The conversation covered how leaders can identify problems worth solving with AI, the questions to ask before investing in any AI tool, and how to introduce AI to teams in ways that build confidence rather than create concern.
"AI is genuinely useful for small and medium-sized businesses, but the path does not necessarily match the headlines," said Kevin Goldberg, CEO of iS2 Digital. "My goal in conversations like this one is to give business owners a practical framework they can actually use: start small, build trust in the systems, and expand from there."
During the episode, Goldberg addressed several misconceptions that business leaders commonly hold about AI, including the belief that large language models function as advanced search engines. He drew a clear distinction between the core AI platforms, such as Google Gemini, OpenAI's ChatGPT, and Anthropic's Claude, and the expanding landscape of tools that use those platforms to address specific business functions. He also discussed the concept of "human in the loop" as a practical governance principle: AI can handle repetitive, low-stakes tasks effectively, but decisions involving finance, legal, compliance, and client relationships require human judgment. Goldberg cautioned business owners against the tendency to "set it and forget it" once an AI implementation is running, recommending regular reviews to catch drift and maintain output quality.
The appearance reflects iS2 Digital's ongoing commitment to helping business leaders understand and apply technology with clarity and confidence. Goldberg's approach of explaining AI without jargon and grounding recommendations in the realities of small and medium-sized business operations positions iS2 Digital as a trusted resource for organizations navigating an increasingly complex technology landscape.
