AI dominates headlines and vendor pitches — but the reality inside companies is far more nuanced. In this fireside chat, Jocelyn Sexton — VP of Marketing at Growth Acceleration Partners (GAP) — sits down with Charlie Scott — AI Consultant at Outer Limits AI — to unpack what’s actually happening with AI adoption in real business environments. The conversation cuts through the noise to explore practical implementation, common pitfalls and where technology leaders should focus if they want measurable results.
Scott explains that while AI tools can produce polished outputs quickly, they often miss critical context — making human oversight essential. Instead of chasing fully autonomous AI systems, companies should focus on practical use cases such as workflow automation, knowledge management, and decision support. The discussion offers a grounded perspective for CTOs and engineering leaders who want to move beyond hype and build AI solutions that are actually useful, responsible and aligned with business outcomes.
