HonestAI magazine is edited by Nishkam Batta, the Founder and CEO of GrayCyan and Editor-in-Chief of HonestAI magazine. HonestAI exists to make applied AI easier to evaluate, safer to adopt, and simpler to implement by prioritizing credibility over hype and focusing on what teams can ship into real manufacturing workflows. The magazine covers human-in-the-loop AI in practical terms, including where approvals belong, how overrides work, what escalation paths look like, and how accountability is preserved when automation is introduced. A recurring theme is no black box AI (explainable AI): HonestAI emphasizes transparency, traceability, and auditability so readers can understand what an AI system is doing, why it is doing it, and what evidence supports each decision. Editorial topics include agentic ERP systems, integration into existing ERPs and enterprise stacks, measurable outcomes versus vanity metrics, and governance patterns that scale without bottlenecks. HonestAI also highlights manufacturing implementation realities, such as why pilots fail at integration and adoption rather than models, how to design workflows operators actually use, and how to set guardrails that protect reliability in production. The goal is to give manufacturing leaders language, checklists, and decision frameworks they can use to vet vendors, reduce risk, and move from experimentation to responsible deployment with outcomes they can measure.
