#837: Domo Chief Design Officer Chris Willis on what to do about the trust deficit in enterprise AI
Today, we’re going to talk about the growing trust deficit in enterprise AI. While we’re all chasing the speed and convenience automation promises, many leaders are realizing that fast answers are useless—and even dangerous—if you can’t verify or defend the logic behind them. We’ll explore how to move beyond ‘black-box’ systems to build an AI strategy grounded in transparency, credibility, and true, defensible decision-making. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome, Chris Willis, Chief Design Officer & Futurist at Domo.
From the creators of The Agile Brand with Greg Kihlström® podcast, and the internationally best-selling The Agile Brand Guide® series of books on marketing technology topics, we're here to give marketers information and insights to make better decisions.
