I recently had the privilage of speaking at the 𝐁𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐈 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒, where I shared my thoughts on the power of Artificial Intelligence and the importance of taking a business-first approach to its adoption and implementation. AI is more than just a technological trend—it truly is a game-changer. However, its true potential is unlocked when we anchor its use in business value, ensuring that it drives meaningful outcomes rather than just being a shiny new tool. During my session, I took time to highlight the pivotal role Oracle plays in the evolution of AI. As a leader in enterprise technology and data, Oracle is at the forefront of ensuring that A.I is not only innovative but also practical, scalable, and focused on delivering measurable value. From integrating A.I into enterprise systems to building tools that simplify decision-making, Oracle is enabling businesses to extract real insights, automate processes, and create a sustainable competitive edge—all while keeping value creation at the core of our A.I strategy. It was an inspiring event filled with thought-provoking discussions, and I’m excited to see how we all continue to shape the future of AI-driven business transformation. The best part was meeting a large number of students who had questions that reassured me that the next wave of experts are not far behind! Once again, thank you to Bluechip Technologies, Kazeem Tewogbade and Olumide Soyombo for giving us the opportunity to participate in such an amazing event! 💡 How is your organization ensuring that A.I delivers value and aligns with business goals? I’d love to hear your thoughts! #BluechipAISummit2024 #ArtificialIntelligence #Oracle #Innovation #BusinessTransformation #DataAndAI
