SAP just confirmed what I've been telling business owners for years — and it's not what the tech vendors want you to hear.
AI fails when IT owns it. Full stop.
If you bought a tool that nobody on your team actually uses, that's not a you problem. That's an ownership problem. The tool got handed to the wrong people for the wrong reasons.
SAP's customer conference this week made a quiet but important point: the companies getting real results from AI aren't the ones with the biggest tech budgets. They're the ones where a business leader — not a developer — defined the problem first.
That's the shift. Not better software. Better questions before you buy any software.
Here's what that looks like practically: before your next AI conversation, write down one specific task that costs your team 5+ hours per week. Just one. That single problem statement is worth more than any demo you'll sit through.
You don't need to understand the technology. You need to own the outcome. That's it.
Which means your next step isn't evaluating tools. It's identifying your one most expensive, repeatable headache.
What's one process in your business that you'd automate tomorrow if you knew it would actually work?
