Dr. Chris Mattmann, President of Mattmann.AI, appeared on KTLA 5’s Off the Clock at 2pm PT on Tuesday April 28, 2026 to discuss the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and its growing impact across society.
Joining hosts Megan Telles and Chris Schauble, Dr. Mattmann explored how AI is transitioning from experimental technology into a foundational driver of innovation, economic competitiveness, and workforce transformation.
AI Is Moving from Concept to Deployment
Artificial intelligence is no longer confined to research labs or pilot programs. It is now being deployed at scale across industries including healthcare, government, media, and enterprise systems. Organizations are racing to adopt AI capabilities, but many are still defining best practices for implementation, governance, and long-term value creation.
Workforce Disruption and the Need for Strategic Investment
A central theme of the conversation was the impact of AI on the workforce. Automation and augmentation are reshaping roles across sectors, creating both uncertainty and opportunity.
Dr. Mattmann emphasized the importance of investing in reskilling and upskilling, while also broadening access to AI innovation.
Balancing Innovation and Policy
The discussion also addressed the growing need for thoughtful AI policy. As adoption accelerates, governance frameworks must evolve to ensure transparency, accountability, and safety without slowing innovation.
