The Most Valuable AI Investment You Can Make Is Probably Not New

Enterprise AI strategy is dominated by the search for new capabilities: copilots, agents, generative interfaces, and novel applications that did not previously exist. This is the wrong place to look first. The highest-return AI investments available to most large enterprises are not new decisions.

The organisations generating the highest AI ROI are not the ones with the best data platforms. They are the ones that have identified the high-volume operational decisions already running inside their core systems and systematically improved them.
