Amy Webb, founder and CEO of Future Today Strategy Group, told Fortune's AIQ Summit that Fortune 500 companies are "pretty late to the party," with "enormous amounts of capital" flowing into pilots "with no strategy ahead of them," driven by "fear and FOMO." She compared dependence on AI to New York cab drivers who rely on navigation, calling it "learned helplessness."
She urged flexibility rather than becoming "AI native," a broader view of ROI than the bottom line, and boards that understand the data AI produces. These are her views as reported by Fortune, which we summarize without adopting them.
