Main Kemudian Main Kemudian Senarai Suka DisukaiIn our latest episode of Digital Value Creation, my brother and I continued our discussion on the personal AI journey from entertainment through education to efficiency and effectiveness. We started with a manifesto: don't roll your own large language model (LLM)! With over 500,000 open-source LLMs available, we believe most businesses don't have problems complex enough to require developing a brand new model from scratch. Instead, companies should invest their time and resources into fine-tuning existing models and optimizing prompts, search, and other parts of the AI pipeline. We emphasized that the real edge for businesses is figuring out how to integrate AI outputs into their unique workflows and processes through the use of agents. Rather than just talking to us, AI needs to actively help accomplish tasks and solve real business problems in an economical way. This requires carefully considering the cost-benefit tradeoffs in terms of compute resources, context window sizes, precision, and more. Usability and seamless integration are key - adding friction defeats the purpose of AI automation. We discussed the fast-moving legal landscape around AI and how some companies are proactively addressing it, such as Adobe training on licensed images. The battle between AI companies and content owners is quickly evolving into a licensing model. Finally, I shared results from a poll showing nearly 30% of respondents are already using AI for business effectiveness, with coding as the top use case. While there are open questions around IP protection, AI is proving valuable for internal code refactoring, testing, and documentation. Exciting new innovations like AI software agents show the potential for AI to resolve real-world coding issues at increasing rates. The AI journey is evolving rapidly, and we'll continue to discuss the latest developments. Please subscribe, like, and reach out with your own thoughts and experiences!…

Main Kemudian Main Kemudian Senarai Suka DisukaiThis episode focuses on the insights gained from the inaugural Wharton Gen AI for Business Transformation course. We discuss a study conducted by Boston Consulting Group, which found that consultants with access to GPT-4 outperformed those without AI by 40% in terms of quality and efficiency. The study also revealed that AI serves as a performance leveler, enabling even the worst performers to match the performance of top consultants without AI. This finding has implications for talent sourcing and global competition. The episode also touches on the stages of AI adoption, referred to as the "4Es": entertainment, education, efficiency, and effectiveness. We emphasize the importance of moving beyond personal efficiency gains and focusing on driving business outcomes. The biggest challenge in scaling AI adoption is explainability, as the inherent creativity and randomness of AI models can lead to trust issues. We suggest adopting a portfolio approach, engaging teams in experimentation and education, and identifying one or two projects where AI can disrupt or replace major elements of the end-to-end process. The conversation concludes with a preview of future topics, such as AI agents and the move from content to action.…

These are my first impressions from Davos 2024 around AI 1 - AI and GenAI is everywhere from LLMs to oil/gas to supply chains 2 - countries and companies taking risks will outperform those that are cautious 3 - Companies struggle to go beyond experimentation due to lack of prebuilt use cases and industry solutions by providers 4 - Trust is main concern. Who do you trust to hold your data? LLM providers? Hyperscalers? 5 - GenAI gets beyond content generation to autonomous process creation and management 6 - Who will benefit from GenAI the most? Companies? Chip makers? Hyperscalers? Is there real value creation or just a rent to the hyperscalers?…
I can't believe it's already been almost a year since game-changing AI like DALL-E and ChatGPT burst onto the tech scene. Even though many AI tools have been around much longer, GPT is what captured the magination of of all us. The energy and hype reminds me so much of the early blockchain and crypto days 10 years ago. The buzz, the startups, the dreams of getting rich quick. But looking back, blockchain didn't really change businesses as profoundly as we thought it would. So will generative AI follow the same path, or can we learn from history this time?…

I got into technology value creation exactly 19 years ago. I still remember how it happened. I read an article in the Harvard Business Review that made me question everything I was doing as a software executive. It was an article by Nick Carr, titled “IT doesn’t matter”. The article claimed that technology added no value. Or specifically, technology didn’t create any strategic advantage. Why? Because technology was everywhere, cheap and available to anyone who wanted it. I disagreed with the article and wanted to do something about it. So I spent almost 20 years trying to prove the author wrong. In some ways he was right and in many ways he was wrong. No matter what, a single article changed everything I ended up doing for a living and made me obsessed about the value technology can create. Here's what happened.…

In the last few weeks, I was back on the planes meeting with clients and investors in London, New York, and San Francisco. We often talked about how the role of digital is changing for businesses and investors. How the early digital experimentations have all grown up, real value is created now and many companies are becoming digitally reborn. But not all. Some struggled to take advantage of the digital revolution during the pandemic and may not be quite ready for the digital-first competition ahead. There were common themes I heard across geographies and industries. For example: In past disruptions and uncertainty, leaders could just ”throw people” at those problems. Not anymore. With talent shortage, the great resignation, and great migration - digital tools became to go-to remedy for all problems in business. How is the digital remedy working out?…

First movers would take on higher risk experiments expecting higher returns, but also tolerating higher rates of failure. Fast followers, on the other hand, would wait for the kinks to be worked out or the market to be validated before investing. So which strategy is better?…

Digital Value Creation
I was thinking about the most relevant trends for 2022. Almost everything we know about digital has changed and morphed in the last two years. So I looked at what my peers were predicting about the future. I counted over 500 different trends and predictions and it was hard to find a common theme that resonated with me. In the end, I narrowed them down to 5 major trends that I knew my customers were often talking about. So here is my 2022 prediction list. 1) Hybrid Workforce (People + AI) 2) Decentralized Finance becomes mainstream 3) Business Metaverse emerges 4) Digital Offshoring (Digishoring) 5) Convergence of Employee and Customer Experience +1) First Fully Autonomous Businesses…

Digital Value Creation
Welcome to 2022. What a year we have had! While it represented a crisis on many fronts, it also created once in a generation across digital from automation to digital supply chains to new digital customer experiences to blockchain and crypto literally everywhere. I had so many learnings from this unusual year - I chronicled them in 30 episodes in my channel and in several articles in Forbes. Here are my highlights from a year that will go down as the most transformational in a generation.…
The majority of the companies nowadays are in some stage of digital transformation. Some are very tactical, improving their website and app maybe or automating basic customer interactions. Others are fundamentally changing how the business operates. Business model innovation and digital transformation are two buzzwords and they are increasingly interlinked. How should you and I think about business model changes as we become more digital?…

Digital Value Creation
In the last couple of weeks, I had numerous conversations about what I call the hierarchy of value. A good friend of mine, I call him Jeff, a private equity investor coined this term to me a few years ago. He used this model to decide which improvement projects to invest in and which to pass on in his companies. He wanted simple rules to help his management teams that go beyond hard value and soft value. He even used it in his personal life to decide what to buy and what not to buy. I keep coming back to the simplicity of the model whenever we discuss the value of digital transformation. So what is this hierarchy of value and why does it matter for digital projects?…
The massive global talent shortage is driving businesses to automate in even more areas of their operations. Surveys show that more than 60% of the companies already started their automation journey. There are always some tradeoffs, of course, when doing any enterprise-wide initiative. It would be cool if you could deploy new automated processes overnight. If you could just start your fully autonomous processes. But that is not possible. At least not quickly. So companies are making various tradeoffs on their way to their automated future. Here are the 5 biggest tradeoffs I have seen in intelligent automation projects. 1) Top-down vs Bottom Up 2) Hard vs Soft Benefits 3) Speed vs Perfection 4) Pilot vs Scale 5) Short Term vs Long Term…
Those of you following this channel, you know this. I’m obsessed with finding out what makes some companies succeed with digital transformation while others struggle. Companies of the same size, same industry, same access to talent, but very different results. \ One key factor is how the digital project gets initiated. Does the transformation start with the CEO or a line manager? Does it really need to happen for the business to reach its goals? Or is it someone’s science project? In my experience, transformation projects seem to take 3 possible paths and the results can be predicted almost on day 1. Here’s why.…
Why do some companies seem to completely digital transformations effortlessly while others struggle? I believe organizations can achieve the same flow state as people when faced with challenges. If the majority of the people working are in flow sate then their organizations are too. And that is what happens when new innovation projects including digital transformations just seem to click.…
I’m clearly not in the studio this week. In fact, I am in Las Vegas at HIMSS, the largest healthcare tech conference. We had around 20,000 executives here live and thousands more online. This was the largest post-pandemic business conference focused on digital transformation. This was also one of the first times so many businesses came together to share how they dealt with the crisis, what they learned from it, and what technologies helped them succeed. More importantly, what they will do differently going forward. While the primary topic was healthcare, there were great insights that any industry can use. Here are a few that stood out for me.…
