Challenge in justifying the ROI..

CIO5 years ago

We've consistently increased spending in this area.  But one thing we started working on last year was engaging the broader IT organization in AI.  So we had Amazon come in and host classes on AI/ML that engaged both IT staff, and our business (citizen developer) teams.  We ran a contest using Amazon's Deep Racer -- just to get people to become familiar with the tools. 

My ultimate goal is that AI/ML won't be something only one team does, but it will be a tool applied (where necessary) across all teams.  We'll still have experts, but hopefully in a COE model, not as the only people using the tools/technology.

Have you used or evaluated any AI-driven SOC platforms? Do you think there are sufficient advantages to using an AI SOC analyst at this stage, or are you in ‘wait-and-see’ mode until solutions like this mature?

AI and Research in Marketing and Communications: How Are You Ensuring Quality and Truth Over Speed? As AI becomes embedded in our day-to-day marketing operations, from customer insight to content strategy, it’s clear we’re gaining speed and scale. But are we sacrificing veracity and quality of output in the process? One of the biggest challenges I'm seeing is the rise of hallucinated content in AI-generated research.   - How do we ensure AI systems are surfacing trustworthy, contextually accurate, and well-sourced information? - Are we building enough verification layers into our AI-driven content and research workflows? - And how are you educating teams (and execs) to challenge AI outputs, rather than accept them at face value? - What frameworks, tools, or governance models have you adopted to maintain integrity and depth in AI-led research and insight creation? - Have you had success (or struggles) balancing speed vs. substance in AI-powered strategies? Your thoughts, examples, and recommendations would be incredibly valuable in helping others try to navigate this shift responsibly.

Are we in a GenAI bubble, and do you expect it to pop soon?
