Episode 2: "Adoption at Machine Speed"

from Quanta Bits · host Reza

Everyone says "AI adoption" but nobody means the same thing. This week: why the definitions problem is killing more AI projects than the technology, what BCG's survey of thousands of CEOs reveals about the "pragmatist" majority, and why MIT says 95% of AI projects never make it past pilot. Plus: the fastest-growing open-source project on GitHub is an AI agent that got banned by its own infrastructure provider, and a 1968 novel that reads like an AI governance case study in 2026.
