We're doing things a bit differently this episode - leaving the AI avatars at home, and instead bringing you live audio from a portion of the event "AI Enablement" gathering leaders from all across the Twin Cities to discuss the state of AI - the market, where we're headed, how to prioritize use cases, and more. I share an in-depth case study of an embedded AI solution I led for a Fortune 300 company that resulted in an 85% drop in customer acquisition costs, and discuss some of the obstacles preventing large companies from scaling AI and how to overcome them.
