AI & BUSINESS – PJAIT AI SUMMIT 2026!

The PJAIT 2026 AI Summit is just a week away!

How AI Is Changing Our Reality—and What Lies Ahead At the PJAIT 2026 AI Summit, there will be no shortage of questions with no easy answers. On September 16, we’ll hear from experts and examine artificial intelligence from a variety of perspectives. One of these will be the AI & BUSINESS panel.

AI & BUSINESS

AI is no longer just a technological curiosity; it is becoming an integral part of business strategy. Companies are investing in generative AI, agents, and automation, but the question is increasingly not whether to use AI, but when, where, and how it can deliver real business value.

During the panel discussion, we'll talk about how AI is transforming business models, products, decision-making, and the way work is organized. We'll examine the tension between technological potential and business realities: ROI, costs, scalability, competencies, and accountability.

Topics of discussion included:

• where AI is already delivering measurable business value,
• AI as a Competitive Advantage—Technology, Data, or How It’s Used?
• how to measure the ROI of an AI investment,
• the future of processes and business models,
• AI Governance and Regulation—A Barrier or a Foundation for Responsible Growth?
• Which AI applications will survive the current hype, and which ones will disappear?
• Will AI become a source of lasting competitive advantage, or will it simply be a standard tool for every business in a few years?
