Learn from MISTAKES with AI | Tech Transformation | Innovation | Cloud | DevSecOps

Are you struggling to demonstrate the business value of technology?

With over 25 years of experience driving innovation and architecting complex systems, I've seen fantastic technology fail because it did not adequately address the user needs of the people it was built to serve.

I specialize in creating clarity amidst complexity - bridging the gap between technology capabilities and business priorities. My superpower is quickly grasping the heart of ambiguous problems and rallying teams to deliver solutions that create measurable value.

If you are a technology or business leader tired of:

❌ Chasing the latest hype while struggling to justify budgets

❌ Translating technobabble for skeptical executives

❌ Watching projects derailed by misaligned priorities

I can help you cut through the noise to build innovation strategies and technology roadmaps that move the needle for your organization and fully leverage AI and automation.

My approach combines systems thinking, design practices, and technical fluency to:

🎯 Uncover the root causes of business problems

🎯 Rapidly validate solution ideas

🎯 Deliver technology that users love

🎯 Continually optimize to drive outcomes

I've applied this formula to industry leaders like PepsiCo and helped clients build and integrate critical IoT, cloud, data, DevOps, and AI capabilities. 

Let's connect for a discovery call to explore if my expertise can help unlock value in your technology investments.

83% of AI projects today focus purely on software, leaving a massive gap in the physical world that's about to change dramatically.

What if I told you we've been looking at AI through too narrow a lens?

This year at CES, NVIDIA's Jensen Huang highlighted something I've been thinking about for months:

2026 will be the year physical AI breaks through. 

But here's where most people are making MISTAKES in understanding this shift:

They're thinking robots. 
They're thinking manufacturing.

This isn't wrong, but that's missing the bigger picture.

Physical AI isn't just about machines that move.

It's really about AI that interacts with our physical world in ways we haven't imagined yet:

1. Smart materials that adapt to environmental conditions
2. Infrastructure that self-repairs
3. Buildings that optimize their own energy use in real-time

Transportation, Logistics, Energy, Construction, Service, and many undiscovered opportunities we all get to find!

Think of it like teaching a child. First, they learn to observe (current AI). Then they learn to speak (language models). But the real magic happens when they learn to interact with their environment (world models). 

[ Yes, I think Yann Lecun is right about the future of world models before we can acheive AGI. (but I also don't think that will be the last step)]

That's where we are with AI right now. We are on the cusp of a third breakthrough, we just don't know how quickly the breakthrough will come.

The most fascinating part? The MISTAKES we've made in software AI will actually accelerate the development of physical AI. We've learned a great deal about what works and what doesn't, and those lessons are invaluable.

I'm working on the latest newsletter addition, where I'll go into detail on the ways I will be exploring physical AI in 2026 with AI MISTAKES.

You can build your own AI Agents, and you probably should be experimenting on your own.

But also, maybe there are some that already perform well and directly address your needs.

This is a thought provoking exchange.

We don't talk about today's 'digital labor', but that is a real thing.

Today, you don't need a lift operator to ride in an elevator. The machine handles that labor, but no one talks about those changes because almost no one can remember the time when an elevator required an operator to function. 

I keep going back to the idea that we are repeating the shift that happened at the beginning of the PC era when people began having access to computers.

Today, much of the digital revolution is founded upon the ways that we 'played' with PCs. 

I remember when I was a kid, getting the PC game to work was how I learned to (at first break, and then fix) configure, upgrade and manage computers.

I'm not certain about the age of abundance (we still have to build datacenters), but I do think that if we use the power of our imagination in the right way, we can bring positive change through the use of these great new tools.

What’s the real blocker to AI success? 

It’s no longer about access, now that everyone has the tools. Today’s barrier is imagination. In the age of resource abundance, we need to think bigger.  

So what’s holding teams back from turning AI ambition into action? 

Nick Tzitzon joined global leaders on this AI Skills Panel to unpack how Australia can move from scarcity to abundance and why skills, culture, and mindset will make this shift possible.  

#PutAIToWorkForPeople

Magic happens when brilliant people work together to make an even bigger impact.

I cannot pretend to speak words more succinctly than a highly successful CEO, but I CAN share those words.

Jeffrey shared some treasure today, and he even added a bit of elegant reframing.

I believe this restatement by Jeffrey is what we are all charged with, even if your role does not include responsibility for leading or managing teams.

"Your job is to provide the clarity, culture, and energy that allows a team to move."

This is probably the most valuable blog post I will read all week. 

Thanks for sharing this, Jeffrey Snover.
