Modernising apps triples the odds of AI returns, Cloudflare says
For many organisations, the AI debate has moved on from whether to adopt the technology to a harder question: why do the results feel uneven? New tools are in place, pilots are running, and budgets are rising, yet clear AI returns remain elusive. According to Cloudflare’s 2026 App Innovation Report, the difference often has less […]

Controlling AI agent sprawl: The CIO’s guide to governance
Corporate networks are filling up with AI agents, creating a governance blind spot for leaders managing multi-cloud infrastructures. As distinct business units race to adopt generative technologies, CIOs especially find their ecosystems populated by fragmented and unmonitored assets. This mirrors the shadow IT challenges of the cloud era, but involves autonomous actors capable of executing […]

Balancing AI cost efficiency with data sovereignty
AI cost efficiency and data sovereignty are at odds, forcing a rethink of enterprise risk frameworks for global organisations. For over a year, the generative AI narrative focused on a race for capability, often measuring success by parameter counts and flawed benchmark scores. Boardroom conversations, however, are undergoing a necessary correction. While the allure of […]

The quiet work behind Citi’s 4,000-person internal AI rollout
For many large companies, artificial intelligence still lives in side projects. Small teams test tools, run pilots, and present results that struggle to spread beyond a few departments. Citi has taken a different path, where instead of keeping AI limited to specialists, the bank has spent the past two years pushing the technology into daily […]

Scaling AI value beyond pilot phase purgatory
Scaling AI value from isolated pilots to enterprise-wide adoption remains a primary hurdle for many organisations. While experimentation with generative models has become ubiquitous, industrialising these tools (i.e. wrapping them in necessary governance, security, and integration layers) often stalls. Addressing the gap between investment and operational return, IBM has introduced a new service model designed […]
