For years, the promise of technology has sounded almost magical: smarter factories, faster decisions, automated services, personalized medicine, self-driving systems, and artificial intelligence that can process more information than any human ever could.

Misaligned systems can immediately cause problems between processes, departments and new acquisitions. When one side uses Microsoft and another uses Google, files…

New research from Microsoft reveals a clear pattern: AI readiness is the foundation of Frontier Transformation—the next phase of enterprise change, where organizations align AI and human ingenuity to…
