Putting AI to Work

Erik Huckle·VP of Product·3 min

Erik Huckle, VP of Product at C1.ai, explains how enterprises can move AI from experimentation to real, everyday work.

Main Takeaways

  • Enterprise AI has moved through three eras: chatbots that could answer questions, copilots with a few pre-built workflows, and now customizable agents that let builders across every team create their own apps.
  • Companies that respond by blocking AI usage end up with shadow AI, because employees will find workarounds on personal machines to get their work done.
  • Forward-looking companies are giving teams a governed place to build, deploy, and share apps, and C1 supplies the sign-in and authorization those builders don’t yet have.
