" We did a survey with The Economist globally which obviously included Europe and APAC as well. And we asked the question, 'Does my organization's current architecture supports the unique demands of AI workloads.' Basically 85% said, 'No. We don't have the architecture to support it.' Some partially does, but it needs lots of modifications. So we can still feel a lot of people are still in the early stages and that data point ties back to: 85% of GenAI [proof of concepts] has not gone into production. I think that another interesting point is, 'Does your architecture connect AI application? -your relevant business data.' which is probably nearly even more important for me. Again, it was still about 80%- 'We don't have that.' Because that business data is all over the place. Without the clean data, you cannot get good AI." - Patrick Kelly Fresh out of the studio, Patrick Kelly, Senior Director for Digital Natives, Startups & Enterprise and Commercial Sales in Southeast Asia at Databricks, joins us to discuss how data intelligence is powering enterprise AI applications in ASEAN.

Emphasizing the critical role of data quality in AI success, he showcased compelling customer case studies from across ASEAN and revealed striking generative AI trends in Asia - notably that 85% of organizations lack proper architecture to support AI workloads, reinforcing that clean data remains foundational for effective AI implementation. Patrick concluded by sharing his vision of what success looks like for Databricks in Southeast Asia.

Jeannette tackles common myths surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on the business landscape. She emphasises that while AI will change the nature of work, it will not replace all jobs; instead, it will create new roles and enhance human capabilities. Jeannette also debunks ten prevalent misconceptions about AI, such as its infallibility and the belief that it is only for large companies. KEY TAKEAWAYS While AI will change the nature of work, it will not eliminate all jobs. Instead, it will create new roles and foster a hybrid work environment where humans and AI collaborate. AI's Accuracy Depends on Data: AI is only as accurate as the data it processes. It is essential for humans to oversee and input data to ensure AI's effectiveness. Although AI can analyse data and generate ideas, it does not possess emotions or the ability to think creatively like humans. AI is not just for large corporations; small and medium-sized businesses can also benefit significantly from AI tools to streamline processes and enhance efficiency. BEST MOMENTS "AI is going to replace all jobs... the truth is that with the use of technology, actually, the world of work will change." "AI is only as accurate as the data that has been put into it. It is not going to be 100% accurate." "AI can analyse data fantastically well, but it lacks emotion. So it will never be able to have human-like intelligence exactly." "AI is perfect for small and medium-sized businesses, as well as large organisations." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.
