The Promise and Pitfalls of AI
We are consistently seeing reports of AI projects failing to get off the ground or not connecting. These failures don't happen because the technology is flawed. They happen because businesses jump into AI with no roadmap, are operating without serious governance, and underestimate the security and compliance risks that AI use can bring.
These oversights lead to fragmented tools, stalled initiatives, wasted resources, and increased liability. IBS helps organizations avoid these pitfalls by creating a structure where AI thrives securely.
