AI brief

Tech entrepreneur Azeem Azhar asked 160 IT vice presidents in Las Vegas whether they had measurable AI results, and two-thirds raised their hands; when asked who had results good enough to interrupt the CEO's summer vacation, only eight did.

Why it matters: It suggests many organizations report measurable AI results, but far fewer consider those results urgent enough to escalate to top leadership.
