In a rapidly evolving IT landscape, automation and AI aren’t just buzzwords—they’re strategic imperatives. In this Hitchhiker’s Guide to IT soundbite, Christopher Carter, Chairman and CEO of Approyo, urges CIOs to pay close attention to how AI-driven automation is reshaping enterprise operations. Reflecting on insights from SAP Sapphire, where over 400 AI agents were showcased, Carter emphasizes that AI is no longer experimental—it’s operational.
He encourages leaders to take proactive steps: integrate AI into infrastructure strategies now or risk falling behind. Competitors are already leveraging automation to gain a competitive edge, and the time to act is now. “Don’t stop the process,” Carter says. “Get it going and make sure it’s happening.”
This call to action is a reminder that the future of IT isn’t just about keeping pace—it’s about staying ahead.
