This audio production is intended to bring new technologies that impact our lives, like digital assets, central bank digital currencies and artificial intelligence in an easy to understand way to a larger audience.
In this episode, we discuss Gartner's forecasts for 2026 and the Path Forward for CIOs with AI and similar topics.
The mandate for 2026 is to be "future-aware but context-focused." Leaders are advised to:
• Formulate a Vision: Define the AI ambition before selecting use cases.
• Foster Participation: "Fingerprints on the solution" drive adoption and mitigate fear.
• Accept Imperfection: Compare AI performance to the "low bar" of human error rather than absolute perfection.
• Maintain Tenacity: Recognize that "saving time is not saving money" and focus on the bottom-line financial impact of AI investments.
