This is AI

Join our West Monroe experts as they show you real use cases for applying AI to your business. Topics will include: Navigating use case landmines, effective ways to implement Gen AI in your business, a deep dive on tools we've built, the impact of generative AI on software development, insights on other large language models, and our perspective on a tool-based approach versus bespoke-built solutions, and why they're both important for organizations to consider in their day-to-day business. Listen on your favorite podcast app or watch us on YouTube where we share our screen to show you how to apply these ideas to your business. Our AI experts include Eric Johnson, director, Product Experience & Engineering Lab; Erik Brown, senior partner, Product Experience & Engineering Lab; and Ryan Elmore, Innovation Fellow and Head Data Scientist at West Monroe.
