SHOW NOTES:
WHERE WILL IT BUDGETS MOST LIKELY BE IMPACTED BY AI IN 2025-2026?
- Is your focus on human-augmented capabilities or human-replacement capabilities?
- If you’re buying AI as part of SaaS services, will the pricing be seat-based (human-augmented) or usage-based (human-replacement), or some combination of both?
- Are you directly paying for AI-capabilities, or is AI being positioned as “free”, but the other services are becoming more expensive?
- Are you expanding your predictive AI projects (and data-science teams), or primarily focused on GenAI related projects?
- Are you buying AI resources from the cloud providers, or from AI-specific hosting providers, or buying GPUs for private-cloud usage?
- Are you planning to use standard AI tools, or do you plan to training/align your own models with your data?
- Do you have a cost-control capability for your AI projects yet?
- What are your success-criteria for POCs, Experiments, Trials?
- Are you upskilling existing staff, or hiring AI-specific staff? Or using external consulting?
