"Full stack" AV is the hottest buzzword in town, but are vendors building the future or just stacking up marketing fluff? NΞXXT promises to be your AI transformation superhero, but will they save the day or just add to the villain roster?

The video version of this podcast can be found here.

Tim Albright and his panel of industry experts bring the heat this week on AVWeek! They break down whether full stack AV is true innovation or just integration theater and put the promises of AI under the microscope. The discussion also dives into how AI is helping create smarter, more immersive AV experiences and how, at its core, AV is all about enhancing communication. Plus, they explore what the industry truly needs from AI-focused organizations versus what we’re actually getting.
