CEOs can accelerate AI transformation by learning from Asia-Pacific businesses that are using AI to reshape how they operate.
Key takeaways
- CEOs should lead AI initiatives rather than delegate ownership entirely to IT.
- Focus on transforming the organisation’s most important functions and set ambitious KPIs.
- Build business context into AI through proprietary data and processes to create a lasting advantage.
- Use multiple models, including those that are good enough for the task, instead of waiting for a perfect model.
- Avoid endless pilots and waiting for perfectly clean data: pursue initiatives at scale using available data.
What this means for CEOs
CEOs should lead actively, concentrate on core business functions, combine models and avoid the familiar traps that delay scaling.
