Been thinking about where AI takes us, especially after high profile essays & frontier lab resignations. Who controls the levers is what resolves the current Crisis, not the labs / the models. Been chewing on @barnes_law's AI bubble take too. Where I land: ericoverfield.com/watch-what…

And many orgs are chasing hype over value. Start small, POC an idea. Solve real problems. Scale what works

Orgs always underestimate #ChangeManagement. #AIFirst follows 80/20 rule, 80% people, 20% tech. Invest in culture, training, and trust

I'm seeing orgs treat #AI as a tech project, not a business transformation. We fix this by aligning AI goals with strategic outcomes

My favorite metric = time to insight. My #AI solutions must accelerate decisions, not complicate them

Best bets, track #Adoption, not only output. If your AI isn’t being used, it’s not successful—no matter how smart it is. i.e., if a tree falls in a forest...

#Success = #AI delivering measurable business value. Could include revenue growth, cost savings, customer satisfaction. Success isn't just model accuracy

To start, teach prompt engineering. #Empower employees to ask better questions of AI. Share successes

Use real-world examples, hands-on tools, and cross-functional training to build confidence

#AI #Literacy begins with understanding what AI can do, what it can’t, and how to work with it. It’s for everyone, not just data scientists

#Governance doesn't have to be a blocker. It can be a booster. Since ethical #AI builds trust with users, regulators, and your own teams, governance of data builds that foundation

Trust is earned, not assumed. Really? Yes! Transparent AI solutions, clear accountability, and ethical guardrails are non-negotiable

Summary: #Rethink your infra with #AI in mind: prioritize #Interoperability, #Automation, and #Governance from the ground up

So, #AI needs modern plumbing. Which we've needed for years. Think #DataLakes, real-time #Pipelines, and #ScalableCompute. Upgrade those legacy systems you duct-taped together

#AI at scale demands clean, connected, and cloud-ready data. I say this often, if your data is #Siloed or #Stale, your AI will be too!

Thus, orgs need to consider moving to "prove it first" to "try it fast." #Scary. #AI can thrive in environments that reward learning over perfection

Leaders need to shift their thinking. Foster #Experimentation. Embrace #Uncertainty. #Empower teams to innovate with #AI. No one knows where this is going just yet
