Justin Tauber has spent nearly a decade inside one of the world’s biggest tech companies, first in strategic innovation, now leading Salesforce’s global work on ethical and human use of AI. With a background in cognitive science and design thinking, he’s become one of Australia’s most insightful voices on how technology and ethics can (and must) evolve together.

In this episode of In The Blink of AI, Georgie Healy sits down with Justin to unpack what “agentic AI” really means beyond the hype, and how enterprises can adopt it responsibly. Justin shares how scenario planning helps teams prepare for unpredictable futures, why prediction matters less than rehearsal, and how ethical constraints often spark the most original innovations.

They also dig into the growing problem of “shadow AI” inside companies, the trade-offs between startups and enterprises, and why Australia’s best AI opportunity might not be moving fastest, but safest.

If you’ve ever wondered what trust, transparency, and technology look like when they collide, this episode is your blueprint.
