Every AI strategy I see boils down to a clear choice:

- Treat AI as a tool added to existing processes
- Treat AI as a general-purpose technology you rebuild your ways of working around

Most organizations I talk to are picking option 1 but expecting the results of option 2.

We're back 👊 

Gearing up for the 4th edition of AUTONOMOUS next week - with our most exciting lineup to date. See you there? 

🎙️ 50+ bold AI thinkers and builders from Synthesia, Meta, Google, Amazon, Bolt, Walmart, Mastercard, l'Oréal, and many more.

93% of companies underestimate how quickly rivals are adopting AI and robotics 🤯

Researchers surveyed 3,000 firms and found that most business leaders substantially underestimate how quickly their competitors are adopting advanced tech.

Here is the interesting part: When these leaders were shown the actual adoption rates of their peers, they immediately changed their plans.

But not how you’d expect.

✅ Robotics investment intention spiked. Leaders realized they were behind on automation and immediately planned to catch up. 
❌ But AI adoption stayed flat. Even with new data, the intent to adopt AI didn’t budge.

Why? Robotics is seen as a simpler Capex play. You buy the bot, you get the efficiency - sort of. AI is more of a culture and workflow overhaul. You can't just "buy" your way out of an organizational deficit. 

Are you confident you know where your competitors really stand on tech? How do you keep track? Drop your thoughts below. 👇
