AI was supposed to make work faster and smarter — but for many organizations, it’s doing the opposite.
In this episode, Jacob breaks down three powerful signals shaping the AI reality check every leader needs to understand:
• AI Workslop – the flood of low-quality, machine-generated output wasting time and eroding trust. • The AI Plateau – why 95% of companies report no measurable ROI from their AI tools. • The EY Report – new data revealing nearly $4.4 billion in financial losses from poor AI governance.
Through a futurist lens, Jacob reveals why the next competitive advantage won’t go to the fastest adopters — but to the most discerning ones. He shares how future-ready leaders can design systems of clarity, ethics, and accountability to make AI truly work for people, not against them.
