200000 reasons to thoughtfully integrate AI: Q&A with Wells Fargo's AI chief

Wells Fargo just gave 200,000 advisors access to AI tools. Most of them won't use them effectively. Sound familiar?

You're not alone in this. The "$200/month tool sitting untouched" problem happens at billion-dollar companies too. It's not a you problem. It's a deployment problem.

Here's what Wells Fargo's AI chief got right that most vendors won't tell you: the tool is never the hard part. The integration into existing daily workflows is. Their approach wasn't "replace what works." It was "find the one repetitive task that slows people down, and remove that friction first."

That's the only question worth asking right now. Not "which AI platform should I buy?" Ask instead: "What does my team do every day that takes too long and follows a predictable pattern?"

That one answer points you to your first real AI win. No coding. No system overhaul. No six-month learning curve.

Start there. Solve one thing. Measure the time saved in 30 days. Then decide what's next.

The businesses quietly winning with AI aren't doing more. They're doing less, but smarter.

What's the one repetitive task in your business that you keep saying "there has to be a better way" to do?
