95% of corporate #AI projects fail. As I recently discussed with Handelsblatt, the reason isn’t the technology itself, it’s leadership. Too often, companies focus on the latest technology but overlook the requirements that truly drive impact. Success with AI depends on avoiding three pitfalls: 1️⃣ Chaotic data: Without a clean and accessible foundation, even the best AI models fail. That’s why we’ve built secure cloud-based knowledge systems to power our teams’ work. 2️⃣ Too few AI drivers: AI transformation must start at the top and be enabled by experts. At #BCG in Central Europe, 200+ “AI Black Belts” help teams put AI to work in real contexts. 3️⃣ Ignoring fears: 40% of employees remain skeptical about AI at work. Leaders who acknowledge and address concerns build lasting trust. AI will reshape work. But it is not a question of technology. It's an essential part of the CEO agenda. Following this, success will come to those who embed it into the strategy and culture of the company. 🔗️ Read the full Handelsblatt article here (in German): https://lnkd.in/eW6KXdgj  #ArtificialIntelligence #GenAI #Leadership

Energized to present at SBOS Frankfurt 2025 on “Scaling AI in Banking: From Pilots to Impact.” A packed house, sharp questions, and a rich discussion reminded me just how pivotal this moment is for banking and financial services. We are at an inflection point: ·      AI and Generative AI are moving from pilots to enterprise-scale adoption. ·      Quantum Computing is on the horizon. ·      Technology-led reinvention is reshaping how banks deliver value, grow revenues, cut costs, manage risk, and reimagine operations. As productivity increases in every stage of the software development life cycle redefined by GenAI, the business model of the future comes into focus — one centered on customers, platforms, and ecosystems, with streamlined and optimized middle- and back-office operations. For banking leaders, three questions feel urgent: 1.    Are your strategies bold enough? 2.    Are you executing fast enough? 3.    Do you have the talent and partnerships to seize what’s next? The next 3–5 years promise extraordinary opportunities: better outcomes for clients, transformative growth for institutions, and exciting career paths for bankers. The future doesn’t just look bright — it’s arriving fast. 🌟 IBM Institute for Business Value Gemma Godfrey Paolo Sironi Robert Mercorella #GenerativeAI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIROI #FutureOfWork #BankingInnovation #DigitalTransformation #Leadership #FutureReady

🚗💥 𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲. On July 25, 2025, a new regulation quietly dropped into the Bundesgesetzblatt: The “𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐤-𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐧𝐮𝐧𝐠”. Sounds boring? It’s not. This is 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 that companies like Ottopia and Vay have been waiting for. Remote-controlled cars - steered by human operators from control centers - are now officially allowed on German roads. No more special permits. No more legal gray zones. It’s go-time. But there’s a catch (a smart one): 🔒 Max speed capped at 80 km/h. 👨‍✈️ Remote drivers must be 21+, with 3+ years of driving experience and certified training. 📡 Vehicles need real-time data links and special approvals. It’s a 𝟓-𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞, but make no mistake: This is a massive leap forward. Germany is the first EU country to give remote driving a proper legal framework. ⚡ 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐎𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐕𝐚𝐲? Both have been running trials in Hamburg and Berlin, but now they can scale up. Picture this: 👉 You order a car-sharing EV. 👉 A remote driver steers it through city traffic to your location. 👉 You hop in and drive off yourself. 👉 When you’re done, another remote driver parks it or sends it to the next customer. No in-car driver required. No parking chaos. No more 30% of city traffic spent hunting for parking. Vay already launched such services in Belgium; now Germany is next in line. 🚀 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞? • For cities: Fewer cars parked on streets, cleaner air, less congestion. • For users: Convenience without waiting for autonomous vehicles to catch up. • For the economy: New jobs in tele-driving, tech infrastructure, and fleet services. 🛑 This is 𝙣𝙤𝙩 autonomous driving. It’s human-driven, just remotely. And that changes the entire debate about safety, liability, and readiness. This regulation doesn’t just open doors for Ottopia and Vay. It signals a new era for mobility in Europe. Expect to see more tele-driven ride-shares, deliveries, and rentals in your city soon. The future isn’t self-driving yet. It’s remote-driving: it’s already here. #RemoteDriving #Teleoperation #MobilityRevolution #Germany #Vay #Ottopia #SmartMobility #UrbanTransport #FutureOfDriving #EUtech #Transportation 𝘗𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 (𝘤) 𝘖𝘵𝘵𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘢

For Dr. Ulrich Störk, Member of PwC Deutschland’s EMEA Executive Team leading Technology Alliances, the challenges behind AI adoption are real. Companies often expect immediate cost savings from generative AI, but without clean data, workforce readiness and leadership alignment, those gains remain elusive. AI success depends more on solid foundations than on flashy models. With technology evolving rapidly, planning must extend beyond today’s use cases to capture tomorrow’s opportunities.
