  ChatGPT and Gemini Won't Save Your Business. Starting Over Might.

  May 4, 202616 minS0

  <p>Most boards are asking the wrong question. They are asking how to retrain their existing teams. How to upskill their workforce. How to add ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to what they already do. And Deloitte's 2026 research of three thousand two hundred and thirty five senior leaders confirms it — education, not redesign, was the number one way companies adjusted their talent strategies because of AI. And yet only thirty four percent of businesses are truly reimagining how they operate.</p><p>That gap — between the businesses adding AI to existing structures and the businesses rebuilding around AI from the ground up —...

  Two Hundred and Fifty Billion Dollars. And Ninety Percent Say It Did Nothing.

  Apr 25, 20268 minS0

  <p>A study published this year by the National Bureau of Economic Research surveyed six thousand CEOs, CFOs, and senior executives across four countries. Nearly ninety percent said AI has had no measurable impact on productivity or employment in their business. None. Zero. After two hundred and fifty billion dollars of corporate investment in a single year.</p><p>This episode is not about whether AI works. It does. This episode is about why most boards are drawing exactly the wrong conclusion from that number — and what it is going to cost them when the productivity surge arrives and they ar...

About the culture that determines whether your people are building AI...
