CData names Amit Naik as VP of AI Architecture - The American Bazaar

Big enterprises just hired a VP of AI Architecture to solve one problem: their people don't actually know which AI does what.

Sound familiar?

If you bought an AI tool your team never opened, you're not alone — and you're not tech-stupid. You were sold a solution before anyone diagnosed your problem. That's not a you failure. That's an industry failure.

Here's what's interesting about this hire. Even PayPal and Oracle face the same core challenge: connecting the right AI to the right business function. Not AI in general. Specific AI for specific work.

That's the insight most consultants skip. They sell you "AI transformation." What you actually need is one repeatable task that eats your team's time every week — and a single tool that handles just that task.

Nothing else changes. No new systems. No retraining your whole staff.

Start there. Pick the one workflow that costs you the most hours. That's your pilot. That's where your first measurable win lives — and it rarely costs more than a free trial to test.

What's the one repetitive task in your business you'd most want off your plate this month?
