On today’s episode, Greg is joined by Jennifer Ives — a seasoned leader working at the intersection of business and technology, an in-demand AI advisor to C-suite executives, and all-around big thinker.  

Together, Jennifer and Greg set out to bust some AI myths. Is your organization really falling behind? Is everyone else already using AI? And isn’t “everything” AI these days, anyway? Does AI literacy matter for line-of-business leaders? Are ethics important? And a whole lot more.

Tune in as they discuss the current state of AI adoption in organizations. They highlight that only a small percentage of organizations are leveraging true artificial intelligence. They emphasize the importance of AI literacy at the executive level and the need for organizations to start small, test and learn, and build out their AI strategies. They also discuss the challenges organizations face, such as data cleanliness and the development of ethical AI frameworks. They conclude that, no, you’re (probably) not behind — but warn that the early movers now are developing a big advantage. So, if you haven’t started yet, the time is now.
