In an increasingly AI-driven world, quality is no longer just a technical metric—it’s a strategic imperative. In this episode of George Anadiotis’ podcast series, our CEO Yiannis Kanellopoulos dives into how leading organizations are reshaping their approach to software and AI systems by treating trustworthiness, governance, and performance as first-class priorities.
“There’s a growing realization: if you don’t proactively evaluate your systems for quality and reliability, someone else eventually will—whether it’s regulators, customers, or your own users.” – Yiannis Kanellopoulos
What the Episode Covers:
Why the definition of “quality” is evolving—and why it matters more than ever
How the EU AI Act and similar regulations are pushing AI system evaluation to the forefront
Why testing AI systems goes far beyond performance metrics like accuracy
The importance of transparency, explainability, and ongoing monitoring
Lessons learned from working with highly regulated sectors like banking, insurance, and HR tech
How iQ4AI helps organizations stay aligned with international standards like ISO 29119-11
Yiannis also shares insights from code4thought’s unique dual expertise in software engineering and AI auditing, and how organizations can move from reactive to proactive quality management—before risks materialize.
