At first, this may not seem the case, as implementation of AI-light projects -- such as RPA, native EHR predictive modeling, or chatbot-powered symptom checkers -- give the impression that today's governance will do the trick. But true AI requires a different approach, one that provides the freedom to innovate without producing another silo that will ultimately hold the organization back. In this timely webinar, we'll speak to leaders who are looking to futureproof their AI journey by constructing the optimal long-term strategy today.
