Artificial intelligence is everywhere in global mobility conversations, from conference keynotes to vendor pitches. But how much of it is genuine progress and how much is noise? The reality is that most organisations are still figuring out where AI actually fits, and some are making costly assumptions along the way.
In this episode, Chris and Scott are joined by Neel Khimji from Equus Software to separate the substance from the soundbites. From hallucinations and guardrails to the risk of losing your company’s identity in a ChatGPT rewrite. This is an honest, grounded look at what AI can and cannot do for global mobility teams right now.
