Welcome back to Foundations, with your host, Larisa Hovannisian.This is the first episode of season two, and I want to start by telling you what's changing.Season one was about builders and their stories — where they came from, what they decided to make, and what it cost them. Those conversations still hold up. But something kept happening while we were recording them: the ground moved faster than the stories could settle.So this season we're changing the format. Every week, I sit down with one of these builders and we talk about what actually just happened at the intersection of AI and the human — the releases, the deals, the breakthroughs, the things that got announced on a Tuesday and quietly reorganized something by Friday. Not AI as technology. AI as the thing already reshaping how we learn, work, age, and become ourselves.The question underneath all of it, and the one I'll keep coming back to all season: what does it mean to be human in the age of AI?My guest today is Armen Rostamian. Armen is the CTO of Eleveight AI, and over nearly two decades he's built technologies and products spanning satellite imagery, defense drones, and brain-computer interfaces. He's advised Armenia's Ministry of High-Tech Industry and participated in writing the country's national space strategy. He describes himself as someone who does "left-brain things in right-brained ways," and the principle he keeps coming back to is simple: leave every person, place, product, and team better than you found it.
