For us followers of the AI sector, we are witnessing massive tech progress with advancements in tool usage, reasoning, memory and agentic smarts etc., we are ever closer to the giant leap forward to autonomous agents. Agents that will complete complex tasks without human assistance. With smarter Agents that are available at greatly reduced prices, providing major cost savings. The result is massive future demand and a gigantic opportunity.

However, as often the case at the edge of technology, progress has sprinted ahead of adoption. Practically all companies state strong intentions to implement AI but in reality, most are not doing it. Why is that?

Some of the blockers are reasoning, transparency and verifiable work. Right now, AI generates actions or chains of thought, but we don’t know why or how it did it, resulting in companies' reluctancy in blindly trusting an AI’s thought process. And they are right to mind that gap, imho.

I believe that businesses need to decide what, why and where AI is most needed in their operations. Then they should engage a professional advisor to help them through integration and execution, ensuring no disruption during adoption.
