We’re not long back from attending the AI Summit in London - the headline event for London Tech Week. And so this week’s episode is all about sharing the sometimes surprising key insights we took away. 

The Summit brought together an incredible cross-section of nationalities, perspectives, and industries, giving us what felt like a real-time pulse check of where AI stands right now. We were there on your behalf, identifying amazing leaders and securing some fantastic upcoming guests for the show.

In this episode, we share our biggest takeaways from the event - and we suspect at least one of them will challenge what you might expect about AI's current impact in the business world.

What you'll hear:

• The surprising reality about AI's bottom-line impact in most organisations 
• Why even the biggest companies are missing a crucial strategic opportunity with their AI approach
• The coming wave of autonomous AI Agents and what this means for how we'll all be working soon, 
• Some rare ‘behind the curtain’ examples of how some of the most forward thinking businesses are applying AI, and . . . 
• The fascinating cultural divide we observed between how Europeans and Americans are talking about AI's impact on jobs.

We also explore why so many AI pilots are failing to scale, the risks of unauthorised AI tool usage in workplaces, and what successful AI deployment actually looks like when companies think beyond just automating existing processes.

If you've been wondering whether your organisation is behind the curve with AI, or if you're curious about what's really happening beyond the hype, this episode offers some much-needed perspective from the front lines of the AI world around the globe.
