An investor asked me last week: what questions should they ask about their companies’ digital projects?
I thought wow, what a great question. I told them I actually would have a great answer to that because as a weird habit I write down every question executives ever ask me
So I went back to dozens of old notebooks to find the answer. Do digital leaders ask better questions?
Here’s what I learned

AI Journey: Increase Impact Part 2 19:38

לפני 1 year19:38

19:38

In our latest episode of Digital Value Creation, my brother and I continued our discussion on the personal AI journey from entertainment through education to efficiency and effectiveness. We started with a manifesto: don't roll your own large language model (LLM)! With over 500,000 open-source LLMs available, we believe most businesses don't have problems complex enough to require developing a brand new model from scratch. Instead, companies should invest their time and resources into fine-tuning existing models and optimizing prompts, search, and other parts of the AI pipeline. We emphasized that the real edge for businesses is figuring out how to integrate AI outputs into their unique workflows and processes through the use of agents. Rather than just talking to us, AI needs to actively help accomplish tasks and solve real business problems in an economical way. This requires carefully considering the cost-benefit tradeoffs in terms of compute resources, context window sizes, precision, and more. Usability and seamless integration are key - adding friction defeats the purpose of AI automation. We discussed the fast-moving legal landscape around AI and how some companies are proactively addressing it, such as Adobe training on licensed images. The battle between AI companies and content owners is quickly evolving into a licensing model. Finally, I shared results from a poll showing nearly 30% of respondents are already using AI for business effectiveness, with coding as the top use case. While there are open questions around IP protection, AI is proving valuable for internal code refactoring, testing, and documentation. Exciting new innovations like AI software agents show the potential for AI to resolve real-world coding issues at increasing rates. The AI journey is evolving rapidly, and we'll continue to discuss the latest developments. Please subscribe, like, and reach out with your own thoughts and experiences!…

AI vs Talent - Insights from Wharton 18:39

18:39

This episode focuses on the insights gained from the inaugural Wharton Gen AI for Business Transformation course. We discuss a study conducted by Boston Consulting Group, which found that consultants with access to GPT-4 outperformed those without AI by 40% in terms of quality and efficiency. The study also revealed that AI serves as a performance leveler, enabling even the worst performers to match the performance of top consultants without AI. This finding has implications for talent sourcing and global competition. The episode also touches on the stages of AI adoption, referred to as the "4Es": entertainment, education, efficiency, and effectiveness. We emphasize the importance of moving beyond personal efficiency gains and focusing on driving business outcomes. The biggest challenge in scaling AI adoption is explainability, as the inherent creativity and randomness of AI models can lead to trust issues. We suggest adopting a portfolio approach, engaging teams in experimentation and education, and identifying one or two projects where AI can disrupt or replace major elements of the end-to-end process. The conversation concludes with a preview of future topics, such as AI agents and the move from content to action.…

This was the largest post-pandemic business conference focused on digital transformation. This was also one of the first times so many businesses came together to share how they dealt with the crisis, what they learned from it, and what technologies helped them succeed. More importantly, what they will do differently going forward. While the primary topic was healthcare, there were great insights that any industry can use. Here are a few that stood out for me.…
