In this episode, host Chris Lacinak unpacks a growing tension inside the DAM world: what he calls The DAM AI Gap.
AI roadmaps promise intelligence, automation, agents, and massive productivity gains. But inside organizations, DAM leaders are experiencing something very different: rising expectations, reduced teams, fragmented metadata, unclear governance, and inconsistent operational foundations.
Chris explores the widening distance between AI’s theoretical promise and organizations’ structural readiness to operationalize it. In this episode he explores:
- Why AI is acting as a stress test for DAM maturity
- The difference between AI enablement and AI operationalization
- Why AI amplifies your DAM foundation rather than fixing it
- How weak metadata, unclear governance, and fragmented processes undermine AI initiatives
- What it actually takes to close the DAM AI Gap and unlock real value
