Not only because in absence of clear indications, vendors misinterpret market demand, but also because #CIO success depends on vendors’ capability to deliver exactly what’s needed. At customer conditions, not vendor conditions.

I observed the online presence of overly busy CIOs for some time now. In most cases, their enormous potential to influence vendors remain completely untapped.

A #CIO can and should speak louder and more often about what is needed and not delivered in IT.

Given the mistakes of the past, I think it’s time to be a bit more demanding.

I’m also extremely concerned about the definition given to the label “AI Ops”. Very little #AI in that definition and this will end up like “private cloud computing”: a set of way-too-generous criteria that will allow too many companies to claim something they don’t actually do.

I read press articles claiming that #AI is changing every industry and segment. Not true. From where I stand, there’s very little (if anything) that AI is doing to change Enterprise IT. Ironically, enterprise software is the least touched by AI. (No, fancy analytics is not ML/DP)

OMG, yes. This is a very rare, legit example of #FrictionlessIT. The solution to a miserable UX is thinking harder, not saying “it is what it is”. I hope you guys succeed. > @TypingDNA launches Chrome extension that verifies your identity based on typing https://t.co/KmpZxXdUP0
