95% of AI initiatives are failing—and it’s not because of the tech.
In this episode of the Dataliction Podcast, John and Travis break down why so many companies are struggling to adopt AI effectively. From back office automation to shadow adoption risks, they highlight what’s working, what’s not, and where the real ROI is hiding. They explore why most budgets are pointed at sales and marketing, even though the real wins are happening behind the scenes—and why leadership, not tools, will make or break your AI strategy. At its best, AI should amplify who you already are, not turn you into something you’re not.
