Enterprises cannot terminate employees solely to replace them with artificial intelligence, a court in China has ruled, complicating how enterprises seek to justify automation-driven layoffs. The case involved an employee whose role was partly automated, leading to a significant pay cut and their eventual dismissal after they refused reassignment, the court document said. “The termination…
En el fútbol de élite, la diferencia ya no se mide solo en el césped. La experiencia del aficionado, la eficiencia operativa o la capacidad de anticipar decisiones se juegan también en el terreno digital. En ese contexto, el Atlético de Madrid lleva años avanzando en una transformación tecnológica que sitúa al club entre los…
AI represents a fundamental shift in how organizations work and innovate. It demands an equally fundamental shift in how CIOs approach governance. Forward-looking leaders are moving beyond traditional gatekeeping by creating “paved roads”: secure, pre-approved pathways that embed security controls, automated data protections, and real-time monitoring directly into AI workflows so teams can innovate rapidly…
Generative AI has crossed an important threshold. The vast majority (96%) of enterprise IT leaders report that they view GenAI as a strategic priority, on par with mission-critical systems such as ERP and CRM. The technology is no longer confined to isolated pilots; organizations are already embedding GenAI into core enterprise workflows, software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms,…
The next wave of AI in software development goes beyond better code generation: agents are starting to take accountability throughout planning, design, build, test, release and operations. In the teams I work with, this is already changing team dynamics, leadership priorities and what CIOs must do to maintain quality, security and control. The biggest…
My last few years working as a chief digital officer have been, in large part, a sustained exercise in separating what enterprise AI can actually do from what we as a world insist it is about to do. That distinction is not academic. It is the difference between a transformation program that delivers and one…
The IT department at Unum Group had a product management structure and worked in an agile delivery model. This operating model gave IT teams and the company wins by rapidly delivering what they call “investment capabilities” that were aligned to the business. But Shelia Anderson, who became executive vice president and chief information and digital…
Boris Cherny, creator of Anthropic’s Claude Code, says he hasn’t written a line of code by hand in months. He shipped 22 pull requests one day, 27 the next, all AI-generated. Company-wide, Anthropic reports that 70 to 90% of its code is now written by AI. CEO Dario Amodei has predicted that AI could handle…
CIOs of B2B SaaS companies are just as responsible to represent technology as they are to run it. In an environment where the buyer is often another CIO, however, the role becomes something fundamentally different. It’s no longer confined to internal execution. It extends into the market, customer conversations, and the moments that ultimately shape…
Every CIO I talk to — and I talk to a lot of them — agrees that skills-first hiring makes sense. And with AI now embedded in nearly every stage of the hiring process, from resume screening to candidate matching, many assume the technology will finally make it happen at scale. It won’t. AI can…
