CXOTalk features unfiltered conversations with C-suite executives from major companies about AI, digital transformation, and business strategy. Hosted by Michael Krigsman. Episode 901 | Recorded November 21, 2025

🚨 STOP treating AI like just another automation tool; you're missing the real transformation.

Most executives are approaching AI completely wrong. They're focused on automating tasks when they should be reimagining their entire business model. In this landmark 900th episode of CXOTalk, Sangeet Paul Choudary, advisor to 40+ Fortune 500 CEOs, reveals why AI is actually COORDINATION INFRASTRUCTURE, not just a productivity tool.

You'll discover:

✅ Why the "automation mindset" guarantees you'll fall behind competitors

✅ The shipping container parable that explains AI's true strategic impact

✅ How to think about AI strategy (hint: it's NOT about "what to do with AI")

✅ The dangerous myth of "AI augmentation" and what actually happens to jobs

✅ Real examples: How TikTok's logic revolutionized manufacturing (Shein)

✅ Above vs. below the algorithm: Where YOU fit in the new economy

✅ The word processor paradox—why complementarity doesn't save jobs

✅ Strategic foresight: The #1 capability leaders must develop NOW

This isn't theoretical. Sangeet breaks down exactly how businesses must reimagine their competitive advantage, how professionals should navigate career decisions, and why yesterday's AI vendors are selling you 1990s solutions.
