A common mistake companies make is to assume that their AI strategy should be considered primarily from a technology perspective. As a result, their AI efforts have an IT- or data-analyst-centric focus. This is the wrong approach. The companies that derive the most value are those that view AI as a core pillar of their overall business strategy. Integrating AI into the business strategy ensures that AI initiatives get the proper focus across the organization, in particular with the CEO and other senior company executives, without whose sponsorship and support it's nearly impossible for any transformative technology to succeed.
