AI is the sexy buzzword of the day, but just dropping AI into the discussion isn’t going to get you the results you need. We all find ourselves in conversations that include AI more and more lately. But what do we actually mean when we add “AI”? As leaders, it’s important to understand the practical implementation of this valuable tool.
Vendors understand this too – without a compelling story around how their offerings utilize AI, they risk losing the attention of prospects. To move beyond the vague shiny object stage and into practical implementation, we need to understand our use case for AI.
Let’s focus on how AI will make operations more cost-effective, reduce or avoid outages, and increase the speed and quality of work. Whether you are inside the company trying to get budget approval or a vendor outside trying to make the sale, if you can’t build the business case around the classic concepts of ‘faster, better, cheaper’, you’re just another shiny object distraction.
What’s one task you’d love to hand over to AI?
