Ex-AWS legend explains what enterprises need to make AI actually work
The Register 6 months ago 49
Matt Domo, co-founder of AWS's database division and founder of AI consultancy FifthVantage, argues that enterprise AI projects fail because organizations don't adapt their business processes and decision-making to new capabilities. He cites research showing that AI budgets will rise 86 percent this year and emphasizes that companies need to focus on extracting business value through better signals and predictive decision-making rather than automation alone. The key to success involves starting with small pilots that demonstrate tangible ROI, building organizational confidence, and enabling faster decision-making cycles rather than replacing workers.
