AI Forum: Lessons From Real-World Implementations

Description

AI is no longer a future-state conversation — it's already reshaping how organizations operate, compete, and make decisions. But while interest in AI has surged, successful implementation remains far from guaranteed.

What separates a promising pilot from a scalable, value-creating enterprise capability? And why do some AI initiatives stall while others transform the business?

Join the Tech Titans AI Forum for a candid, practical discussion about what it truly takes to make AI work.

Mike Frizzell of Albers Aerospace will open the session with two firsthand examples from the defense aerospace sector, offering a look at AI implementation where the stakes, complexity, and consequences are especially high.

From there, we will examine additional real-world AI initiatives and unpack the technical, operational, and strategic choices behind their outcomes. Together, we will explore the questions leaders need to ask before investing further:

• Is the organization solving the right problem?
• Is the data, infrastructure, and governance ready?
• Do leaders have the operating model and talent required to move from experimentation to impact?
• How can teams measure value—and recognize early warning signs before an initiative loses momentum?

This is not a conversation about AI hype. It is a conversation about the leadership, discipline, and decisions required to turn AI ambition into lasting business value.
