What can we call the ai-enhanced executive leaders? cAIo? The Chief AI Officer doesn’t really roll off the tongue. And any leader can bolt on their sidekick or create a GPT for their brand. But super-smart chatbots are not going to revolutionize your user journey as a consumer or corporate executive. It can help. ChatGPT woke up the unenlightened as well as the frightened. The vacuum is causing a crisis in many boardrooms and marketing departments.

“What about *ai*?”

“We’ve got an eBook coming, and a technical white paper, and a blog from our CTO, and absolutely no idea which direction is up.”

Unless you’re steering clear of all media and news, you’re feeling the onslaught of *ai* thoughts. Much like the *cloud* or *digital transformation* thoughts of the recent past, our *ai* “lights-on moment (thank you Openai) is now a year old. And while the microprocessor companies are losing the arms race to a former display chip manufacturer, most companies are still reeling from the previous two conundrums and unable to ad a third. Or really, address the crisis in business: cash flow.

It’s hard to follow the money of *ai* unless you have a guide. A north star to give you direction, orient your navigation tools, and set flight for artificially sweetened growth and profit. We are at a “collect more underpants” moment.

Sorry for the explicatives. But, we are seriously unclear on Phase 2 of our *ai* journey to fame and more importantly fortune. That’s where a professional services org comes in. What if you could harness some people to illuminate Phase 2 for your enterprise? Experts who have experience building LLMs, GPTs, and deep learning processes for a number of companies like yours. Like, ten years of experience building *ai* phase 2 engines for profit. You can go on collecting underpants (ai ebooks, technical blueprints, apps, subscriptions) hoping to discover your “phase 2” moment.

This consortium can help you get there faster and with less hand-wringing. A quicker “first value” achievement for your shareholders and stakeholders. What’s in your plan? If you’re wondering the same question, I’d be happy to hook you up with some actual *ai* architects and builders.
