The “ROI of AI” has been marketed as a panacea, a near-magical solution to all business problems.

Following that promise, many companies have invested heavily in AI over the past year and are now asking themselves, “What is the return on my AI investment?”

This week on Chain of Thought, Galileo’s CEO, Vikram Chatterji joins Conor Bronsdon to discuss AI's value proposition, from the initial hype to the current search for tangible returns, offering insights into how businesses can identify the right AI use cases to maximize their investment.

Next, we’re joined by a panel of AI experts to discuss the ROI of Enterprise AI, featuring Alex Klug, Head of Product, Data Science & AI at HP; Sriram Palapudi, Sr. Dir, ML Platform Engineering at ServiceNow; and Jay Subrahmonia, Global MD for AI Research & Products at Accenture.

Together, they explore effective implementation strategies, how to measure the returns of AI adoption in the enterprise, and why AI's ROI isn't always just about the bottom line.
