Decision Intelligence is an interdisciplinary field concerned with all aspects of decision-making.  It combines Data Science (statistics, machine learning, AI, analytics) with the Behavioral Sciences (psychology, neuroscience, economics, and the managerial sciences).

I serve as a thought leader in this new discipline, guiding Google and the world in making safe, effective use of AI and data.

Chief Decision Scientist

My mission is to democratize artificial intelligence and guide business leaders in harnessing the transformative power of machine learning.

86% of enterprises plan to invest more in agentic AI.
6% trust agents to run core processes.

Let's talk about that gap!

Harvard Business Review just released some findings about tech decision-makers (n=603):
🤖 86% expect agentic AI investment to grow in 2 years
🤖 6% fully trust agents with end-to-end processes
🤖 ~25% say they're "ready" on infrastructure, data, security, and governance

That lack of trust is a good thing, in my opinion. Trusting complex probabilitistic systems without re-archtiecting complex processes is a recipe for kablooies. If anything it should give you hope. The trouble is that the redesign is difficult except in narrow use cases.

The model isn't the bottleneck anymore.
The plumbing and the people are.

Fragmented apps and data → agents can't get reliable context 
Legacy processes → never designed for autonomous execution 
Security and compliance → no playbook for "agents at the core" 
Employees → unclear if agents are tools or replacements

The report points to enterprise orchestration as the missing layer—connecting systems, standardizing actions, enforcing governance so agents behave predictably instead of becoming shadow IT.

Old question: "Which LLM should we use?"
New questions:
Which processes are we willing to redesign around agents?
How do we orchestrate data, tools, and guardrails so we can trust them with real work?

In 3 years, the gap won't be "who has agents."
It'll be who rebuilt their processes so agents can actually run them.

Where is your team right now?
A) Still experimenting at the edges (help desks, copilots) 
B) Re-architecting workflows so agents own real outcomes 
C) Somewhere in between, trying to figure out where to start
D) Waiting and watching others stub their toes

P.S. On a completely different note,  my Decision-Making with ChatGPT course is running on demand right now with a live Q&A with me next week. Come ask me anything! decisiongptcourse.com

Agentic HBR

Been wondering when my next cohort will be? Surprise! The time is NOW. If you missed the previous run or have been waiting to join, enrollment is now live:

 👉 https://lnkd.in/eG7EBtTv

The last cohorts made something clear: leaders aren’t looking for more information. They’re looking for clearer judgment. ChatGPT helps - but only when you use it in the right parts of the thinking process.

In this cohort, we’ll continue the work of turning AI into a genuine thinking partner instead of a shortcut. You’ll learn how to:

• Use ChatGPT to reduce effort without losing rigor
• Avoid the trap that turns “AI-assisted” into lazy thinking
 • Spot cognitive biases before they distort outcomes
 • Separate luck from decision quality
 • Build a decision scribe so you finally learn from your choices
 • Operate with confident judgment instead of drowning in advice

You’ll get 30+ on-demand videos (available as soon as you enroll), a 2-hour live Q&A with me (at 1 PM ET Dec 18), prerecorded Q&A from earlier cohorts, templates, frameworks, and a global community.

If you're working on sharpening your thinking in an AI world, Cohort 3 is now open.

If this resonates, a repost or subscribing to decision.substack.com helps the course reach the leaders who need it.
