Jan 28 : Great discussion last evening about the state of AI adoption, with Philippe Gryc (HEI, MIT, HBS), Principal Technology Strategist at Lantern – key takeaways ⬇️ 🔵 Philippe vividly reinforced the following point, which has been widely reported lately: While everyone has been experimenting with AI over the past couple of years, 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 / 𝗥𝗢𝗜. 🟠 The 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗥𝗢𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸-𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝘀. 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿-𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀... unfortunately, it's usually the more visible customer-facing stuff that gets the funding 💰. 🔵 Another reinforcement of a widely-reported trend: 𝗔𝗜-𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝘆 𝗖𝗘𝗢-𝗹𝗲𝗱 i.e. it's not a CIO initiative anymore (or someone else's). And that's a good thing. 🟠 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗜 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘀, as each silo is experimenting with AI... within its confines. Yet, for true AI transformation, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿. Thank you Philippe for a great Presentation ( available below ) . Exceptional turnout with 97 registrations ! Great jobs from our University Managers ( especially HEC Paris and Arts et Metiers ) as well as Estelle Chen , President of French Tech Toronto for introducing Philippe and taking great pics ( see below )
