À propos de cet audio

 Bob Pulver reconnects with former IBM colleague Oded Dubovsky, founder of STRAIX (Strategy for AI Execution), an advisory practice helping organizations adopt AI thoughtfully and effectively. Oded shares a career journey spanning over two decades at IBM Research's Haifa Lab — where he led pioneering cognitive computing and computer vision projects — through applied AI work at Intel, and into independent consulting. The conversation explores why 95% of organizations struggle to move beyond AI aspiration to real execution, and what it takes to build a solid foundation before layering in AI. Bob and Oded also reflect on the enduring value of human ingenuity, originality, and orchestration in an increasingly AI-assisted world. Keywords Oded Dubovsky, STRAIX, AI strategy, AI execution, AI adoption, cognitive computing, computer vision, IBM Research, Haifa Lab, Watson, automation, generative AI, vibe coding, AI-assisted coding, responsible AI, human centricity, AI readiness, orchestration, innovation, shadow AI Takeaways Only about 5% of companies successfully adopt AI — most struggle with where to start, what tools to use, and how to build the right foundation before scaling AI is the "penthouse" built on top of decades of IT, software engineering, and automation experience — that foundational knowledge remains critical The human role is shifting from execution to orchestration and architecture — developers and knowledge workers are becoming "team leads" directing AI agents Responsible AI development means thinking through security, data, scalability, and governance from the start — not as an afterthought Slowing down to think carefully before prompting or building — echoing Einstein's 55/5 rule — leads to better, more scalable outcomes Early cognitive computing projects at IBM (food recognition, augmented reality for remote guidance) were ahead of their time, foreshadowing capabilities now taken for granted Human originality and the ability to generate truly novel ideas remain a distinctly human trait that AI has not replicated Quotes "AI is kind of the top level, like the penthouse on top of all of that." "95% are just saying we need AI — they kind of don't know how to absorb that, how to start using it." "Once I crossed the line, I couldn't go back." "Think about it — you just got a promotion. You're a team lead now. You don't micromanage. You give them the bigger picture." "If I had an hour to solve a problem, I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about the solution." — Einstein, as quoted by Oded "Slow down to speed up."
