Breakfast Session: Applying AI as the new tool in our digital toolbox to realize value

Artificial Intelligence is redefining what machines can do for humans, pushing past the limitations of traditional digital tools. But as organizations look to adopt AI, they face not only the same hurdles encountered with past digital and data initiatives—siloed thinking, misaligned goals, and underdeveloped data foundations—but also a greater urgency to overcome them.

Yet even these architectures do not operate in isolation. They still aim to realize business value by providing functionality and delivering on quality attributes (e.g., scalability, performance).
