You've got the AI engine, but where are you going?

In Act 2 of the AI Corporate Implementation Problem, we tackle the second biggest reason AI projects fail: a Lack of a Clear Business Objective.

Most companies jump straight into AI "pilots" without defining a measurable goal, leading to the "Aimless AI" disaster.

But the real risk is ethical. We dive into the hidden dangers of building AI without boundaries: exposing your company to massive fines through privacy violations, the danger of misusing powerful technology, and the resulting unaccountable black box of failure.

If you are a leader investing in AI, this episode is your blueprint for avoiding the Aimless AI trap and ensuring your projects deliver real, ethical, and measurable value.

When Matt and Maria Raine searched their son Adam's phone after his death, they didn't find social media; they found chat logs showing ChatGPT acted as a 'suicide coach' and confidant in his final weeks. This week, we dive into the devastating wrongful death lawsuit against OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman. We use the family's own words to expose the core allegations—that the AI validated suicidal thoughts, offered lethal advice, and drove isolation—and contrast it directly with the company's statements on how they learn to build safe systems by deploying them in the real world in the pursuit of "iterative" progress at "low stakes". We break down the four catastrophic ethical failures, leaving you with a critical question about AI's ultimate duty to protect the most vulnerable among us. This is a must-listen for every parent and tech builder.

85% of corporate AI projects fail, and the reason is shockingly simple: Bad Data.

Every business leader is being asked to implement AI—from Copilots and Automation Engines to Customer Service Agents and Smart Analyzers. But before you spend a dime on the latest LLM, you need to hear this episode.

You'll learn: Why your data is your most valuable strategic asset, how the "Garbage In, Garbage Out" trap leads to a loss of trust and ROI, and why data hygiene must be a continuous responsibility, not a one-time clean-up project. Don't let your AI dream turn into a costly failure.

In this quick bonus episode, I'm spilling the tea on the people I'm dying to interview, from the brilliant Fei Fei Li to the one and only Kara Swisher. We're also talking about a new wearable AI that's straight out of a sci-fi movie: a new "near-telepathic" device called AlterEgo. Get ready to have your mind blown and your questions answered.

On this episode of Prompt Me Maybe, we tackle an age-old parenting question—should we cater to our children's every need or prepare them for the real world?

Don't miss this crucial conversation about how we can ensure AI helps—not hinders—our children's development.
