The Virtual CIO

You may not need another AI application. You may need someone to help you decide what belongs where.

The first question is not, “Which AI product should we buy?” It is, “What are you trying to accomplish?”

• · Business outcome — what are we trying to achieve?
• · People — who owns the outcome?
• · Systems — where does the authoritative record live?
• · Domain — what does the organization actually do?
• · Risk — what could go wrong?
• · Governance — who may act?
• · Roadmap — what should happen first?
• · Technology — only then: which technology should be used?
