Key Takeaways
AI is a tool to augment humans, not replace them. The human-in-the-loop remains critical for success.
Design up front is crucial: thoughtful planning and iteration prevent costly mistakes later.
User feedback drives adoption: involving stakeholders early and often builds trust and prioritizes deal-breaker requirements.
Managing organizational expectations is as important as the technology itself – showing incremental progress matters.
Leaders can succeed in unfamiliar domains by leaning on curiosity, collaboration, and translation from technical experts.
