How I Invest with David Weisburd · E406: Why AI Won't Transform Most Enterprises for 10 Years · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

Yet we still have on-prem systems running all throughout the enterprise.

Like one of the largest trucking companies we know still runs on a legacy IBM AS400 mainframe system for most of their operations.

So we're talking about a change that hasn't happened from going from on-prem to the cloud.

And yet we here we are talking about how AI is going to go overnight.

That's not going to happen.

Look, all of these companies have different circumstances where they might have legacy tech stacks.

They might be all over the place, but I think the number one determinant is when leadership is really bought in top down on like, we're going to personally go and drive this change.

Like the CEO, CTO are all the COO and like various business unit leaders are committed to driving this change and they're involved in the details.

And the second thing is that they've really kind of gotten the right sort of leaders to kind of propel the change and giving them a mandate that like we have a VP whose sole job is to kind of go and navigate this.

And we have an operations leader as their counterpart to go and do this.

And they've equipped those leaders with the right institutional power to go and drive this change.

Those are the companies that we find are doing the best.

What's not working is when you just go have the CEO is like, I'm going to hire a head of AI.

The head of AI is going to be on an island.

They're just going to go and figure it out.

That doesn't work.

There has to be like a really strong top down change management strategy.

Yes, exactly.

And not just that, you as the C-suite of the company are pretty committed to being in the details of this change.

versus just delegating it to someone else and being like, you take care of it.
