2 reasons why decision makers of large organisations think they are not ready for AI. 🙄

I can’t even count how many conversations I had with decision makers at larger companies, who do have resources and space to innovate, but chose not to.

They will resist change as long as they can, for two main reasons:

• People are scared 😱 of things they don’t understand.
• The corporate incentive systems don’t reward people for innovation. 🤫

Just like Tom Goodwin said:

“Companies use old software because people in IT would rather maintain something they understand. Almost no companies reward their IT department researching the best and newest software like R&D. They treat IT as a cost center and hope to never think about it.”

And sometimes, you need to lead conversations with FOMO in mind. The technological progress with AI development is speeding exponentially, and if you don’t jump on that train, you’ll be left behind.

I’ve compiled a list of reasons why you should consider shifting your priorities, giving experimenting with AI a little bit more thought.

Lack of data visibility presents a number of challenges for organisations.

You can continue ignoring the fact that the longer you wait, the worst it’s going to be to catch-up… or you can start asking those questions internally:

• How do you retain tribal knowledge while facing labour shortage?
• How do you shorten times to productivity?
• How do you become more competitive?

Still think, you’re not ready for AI? Then, have you considered what happens next?

• Competitive Advantage: Your competitors may already be using AI to streamline operations, improve customer service, and personalise their products and services.
• Scalability: Still compiling those weekly reports in Excel? 😖
  Good luck. With AI, you can scale your business more easily. You can quickly analyse data and make decisions that help you expand your business or serve more customers.
• Increased Efficiency: With AI, you can improve operational efficiency — producing more with less. You can streamline your internal processes, identify bottlenecks, and make faster decisions. The longer you wait, the more you fall behind. 🫣
• Improved Customer Experience: With AI, you can gain a better understanding of your customers, their preferences, and their behaviours. This can help you provide a better customer experience… or you can keep wandering in the dark. 😶‍🌫️
• Cost Savings: Optimising internal operations with AI now can help you save costs in the long run. By automating manual processes and improving efficiency, you can reduce the need for manual labour, ultimately saving on labour costs.
• Future-Proofing: AI is the future, whether you want it or not. If you don’t adopt it now, you will get left behind. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to catch up.

Intelligent systems can improve your organisational efficiency without turning your infrastructure upside down.

You don’t even need to have all information in one place (stop believing in data lake fairies 🧚🏻) or a unified format. Systems as Untrite Atlas™ don’t even need to copy any data and they can follow all your permisioning rules.

Good news is — adopting AI can happen gradually.
Start small. Define a narrow, self-contained use case and run a proof of concept on your data.

Once people will see its value, you’ll gain internal advocates among your Legacy Guardians. 😉

So….what are you waiting for?
