Information

Every week brings another breakthrough model, agent framework, or enterprise AI product. At the same time, organizations are investing in RAG, governance, enterprise memory, knowledge graphs, provenance, and LLM-native knowledge formats. These can feel like separate trends competing for attention—but what if they're all attempts to solve different parts of the same problem?
This talk offers a systems perspective on enterprise AI, arguing that the greatest opportunities lie beyond the model itself. Rather than comparing technologies, it introduces a practical way to think about the conditions that allow enterprise intelligence to emerge. Whether you're building AI products, advising enterprises, or deciding where to invest, you'll leave with a new way of thinking about why these technologies matter, how they fit together, and where the next generation of enterprise AI is likely to be created.
