In this presentation and discussion, he will describe the attributes of companies that are highly committed to AI, discuss all-in approaches to analytical, generative, and agentic AI. and present several leading examples of such firms. He will also describe the attributes of AI leadership--both for CEOs and CDAOs--and provide examples of successful ones.
