CIOs and HR managers are changing their equations on hiring and training, with a bigger focus on reskilling current employees to make good on the promise of AI technologies. That shift is in no small part due to an AI talent market increasingly stacked against them.

While data platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and programming platforms have evolved to leverage big data and streaming data, the front-end user experience has not kept up.

Your boss points out what’s going wrong more often than what’s going right. They nitpick your work, highlighting every possibility for improvement. Meetings sometimes feel like inquisitions. While a generally difficult boss might be challenging due to their mood swings, lack of clarity, or unpredictability, a highly critical boss consistently focuses on “the gap,” not the gain.

Everyone wants in on the AI boom. For now, however, you can probably count on one hand the number of vendors cashing in. The most obvious one is Nvidia , of course. Nvidia has earned nation-state levels of cash for its GPUs ($26 billion in the first quarter of 2024 alone). Beyond Nvidia are the big three cloud vendors and OpenAI. Beyond that cast of five, however, it’s pretty hard to find many—yet.

Organizations erroneously believe that 100% of the value of strategic planning for the future lies in determining “what comes next” or putting a stake in the ground regarding “where we want to be.” Most of the real value associated with strategic planning for the future emerges from a nondelusional articulation of the current situation. Just like with Uber or Google Maps, if you want to get where you are going, you have to be very specific about where you are starting from.
