Lloyd Fobi gives a plain breakdown of how enterprise leaders are getting AI buying wrong, and what to do about it. He starts with how companies measure AI performance (you need a human baseline) and the untapped power of CIOs buying together. He also shares three questions to run before signing any AI contract, a tiered risk model built for healthcare IT leaders, and a firm line on vendors: if they won't share the risk, they don't believe in the product.
