From Curiosity to Core Strategy: Looking Back on Two Years of AI in Business

We're celebrating 100 episodes of AI Knowhow and asking: what have the last two years of AI actually taught us? Courtney, David, and Mohan rewind the tape to trace how far AI and executive thinking have come since episode 1 of the show all the way back in September 2023. What began as a curiosity is now a boardroom priority. But while the tech has sprinted ahead, the biggest barriers aren't technical: they're cultural, organizational, and deeply human. The team shares what's surprised them (Wendy's drive-thru, anyone?), what still hasn't landed (where's the breakout AI-native device?), and what leaders need to carry into the next two years.  And Pete Buer joins to reflect on some of his favorite conversations and the people shaping the future with care, not just code. It's a candid, insightful, and sometimes humorous look back, and a launchpad for what's next. 00:00 Introduction and Milestone Celebration 01:33 Reflecting on Two Years of AI 02:12 Lessons Learned and Future Outlook 06:26 AI in Everyday Life 08:46 Unmet Expectations and Surprises 16:13 Reflections on 100 Episodes 21:09 Looking Ahead to the Next 100 Episodes Make sure to check out www.knownwell.com.
