The AI investment crisis is real, with reports showing only 41% of generative AI prototypes ever reach production, and 74% of companies have yet to demonstrate tangible value from their AI initiatives. The challenge isn’t a lack of capability, it’s the foundation. Enterprise data remains fragmented across hundreds of systems, with no shared context for people or AI to interpret what it represents in the real world. So what’s actually preventing organizations from turning AI into measurable business impact?
Leading organizations are beginning to rethink how data connects to the business. They are moving beyond isolated systems toward a more unified, contextual understanding of operations. By aligning data to real-world concepts and workflows, they’re enabling AI to operate within the business rather than alongside it. This shift allows teams to move from static analysis to dynamic decision-making, where insights don’t just inform action, they drive it. As a result, AI becomes embedded into day-to-day operations, unlocking faster, more confident decisions and measurable outcomes.
Join peers and industry leaders from Rackspace for a candid discussion on how organizations are overcoming the foundational challenges holding AI back. Together, we’ll explore what it takes to move from fragmented data and stalled pilots to scalable, production-ready AI that delivers real business impact.
