AI Advances From Experimentation Into Enterprise Infrastructure - WSJ

Most AI projects don't fail because you picked the wrong tool.
They stall because nobody changed how work actually gets done around it.

You bought the software. You paid the subscription. Your team smiled and nodded — then went back to doing things the old way. That's not a you problem. That's an adoption problem, and it's the most common story I hear.

A new Deloitte/WSJ report confirms what I see constantly: companies that move AI from "experiment" to real business value aren't using fancier tools. They're connecting AI to one specific workflow where people feel the pain every single day.

That's the whole shift. Not bigger budgets. Not better technology. One process, one problem, one measurable result.

Here's what actually works right now: pick the single most repetitive task your team complains about this week — quoting, scheduling, reporting, follow-up emails — and find one AI tool that handles just that. Nothing else. Prove it saves two hours. Then build from there.

That first win changes everything. The skeptics on your team become believers. And you stop guessing.

What's the one task in your business eating time that nobody should still be doing manually?
