In this episode of AI for the C-Suite, host Chad Harvey sits down with Egor Olteanu, COO & Co-Founder of Volt AI, a mission-driven company reinventing physical security with artificial intelligence. Igor shares his remarkable journey from emigrating to the U.S., to serving in the Army, to helping launch Google X’s Project Loon, to founding Volt AI after the 2018 YouTube headquarters shooting.   Together, they explore:   The limits of traditional security systems and why camera monitoring fails. How Volt connects thousands of cameras into one AI-driven “brain”. Why simplicity, intuitiveness, and real-time detection matter. The human failure modes that cause security breakdowns. How AI can reduce violence in schools, improve safety, and support overworked security teams. The philosophy behind building a mission-driven tech company. How to recruit smarter people, combat burnout, and stay sane as a founder.   Igor also offers candid insight on risk, purpose, investors, and why “the best security is the security you don’t see.” A must-listen conversation for anyone leading organizations through the exponential age.
