Operationalizing, Shadow AI, Moving Beyond Demos
Over the past year, I’ve attended countless sessions about AI—especially those that hover around cybersecurity. I sat through one this week, and thought I would distill the key non-vendor-speak points for those of you who are interested.
While most enterprise leaders are fixated on AI’s return on investment and technical scalability, they’re missing a critical—perhaps defining—third pillar: behavior. Over the past year, through hundreds of conversations at CxO Security Forum events, interviews with enterprise tech executives, and observations from industry briefings, one theme has become clear: AI is not just transforming workflows. It is reshaping how humans think, act, and feel at work.
If you’re responsible for AI strategy, you’re not just deploying solutions—you’re designing relationships between people and machines. And yet, very few organizations are tracking or managing behavioral outcomes. It’s time we fix that.
Smarter Strategies for CIOs, CISOs, and Procurement to Know Before the Next Renewal
I have long been saying that the way in which enterprise solutions (in general, but cybersecurity in specific) are sold/marketed and evaluated/purchased has been materially broken for a long time. A big part of that is building mutual respect between buyers and sellers.
One of the more meaningful sessions I attended this week at the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum in Brooklyn focused not on the flashiest AI capabilities, but on the real-world transformation happening in America’s safety net hospitals and health centers.
While Solution Providers have outstanding offerings showcased at the conference, many of them are costly. Large hospital systems and other healthcare providers can afford the most elegant and innovative solutions for sure, but this article is about a talk from the other end of the spectrum – where budgets are much tighter.
Reflections from the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum today in Brooklyn
TODAY at the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum , I had the opportunity to sit in on one of the more thought-provoking discussions of the event: The Future of Healthcare with Agentic AI. The conversation, led by executives from NYU Langone, Hyland, Soothien HealthTech, and MATTER, tackled a key emerging question: how do we move from simple bots and rules-based automation into the domain of autonomous agents in healthcare?
