AI Tools and Agents Everywhere, Yet A Fleeting ROI on AI Investments

This week I tackle the situation where AI tools are exploding everywhere while ROI and economic productivity is hard to find. I also discuss the “commoditization” of AI “features” and the shift in value to “AI applications,” which is good for all corporate buyers and users. You’ll understand how important it is to build a long term strategy, despite all the experiments going on (contact us to see our HR Blueprint). I also discuss the Galileo Everywhere strategy and how we’ve been expanding Galileo to support employees and leaders, not just HR.
