    Turn AI Risk Into a Resilience Advantage

    AI adoption is accelerating fast, but so is enterprise risk. In this episode of Gartner ThinkCast, Distinguished VP Analyst Paul Furtado explores the growing reality facing leaders: nearly every organization is investing in AI, yet most expect it to increase their risk profile.

    AI After the Hype: Why Scaling Value Means Quitting More

    AI hype hasn't disappeared, but patience has.  In this episode of ThinkCast, recorded from the Gartner CIO Leadership Forum Opening Keynote, Gartner VP Analyst Tori Paulman breaks down why many AI initiatives stall after early wins — and what separates CIOs who move through the hype from those who fail to generate lasting value.

    The "AI-Free" Trust Disruption: Backlash or the Future of Responsible AI?

    AI is now everywhere, but trust is breaking down just as fast. As synthetic content floods our feeds and workflows, leaders face a new question: when does AI help, and when does it quietly undermine credibility? In this episode of ThinkCast, Gartner Senior Director Analyst Deepak Seth returns to explore a growing counter‑movement: the rise of "AI‑free" trust. From content labels that signal human creation to new expectations around AI governance, Deepak breaks down why trust — not capability — is becoming the defining challenge of the next AI era.   You'll learn: Why "AI‑free" could become the new organic label for content and brands How trust, provenance and context shape responsible AI use What recent high‑profile failures reveal about over‑automation risks How CIOs can build guardrails without stalling innovation Dig deeper: Watch the 7 Disruptions You Might Not See Coming Become a client to learn more about AI governance, trust and risk See why Gartner is the world authority on AI Try out AskGartner for more AI-powered insights

    The AI Upskill Most Teams Are Overlooking

    Most AI initiatives don't fail because the technology is wrong; they fail because the humans around it stop thinking as carefully as they used to. In this episode of ThinkCast, recorded from a live session at Gartner CIO Leadership Forum, Gartner Distinguished VP Analyst Mandi Bishop breaks down why so‑called "soft skills" have quietly become the hardest — and most essential — capability to scale in the age of AI. From practical workforce exercises to Mandi's own racing experience, hear how over‑reliance, complacency and automation bias creep in — and how CIOs can rebuild critical thinking, judgment and contextual awareness to turn AI tools into true performance accelerators. You'll learn: Why automation bias is one of the biggest hidden risks in AI adoption How soft skills like skepticism and judgment directly impact AI outcomes Why hands‑on techniques, like hallucination hunts, can build real AI literacy How better prompting reinforces human thinking instead of replacing it What CIOs can do now to operationalize soft skills across the enterprise Dig deeper: Attend a Gartner CIO Conference near you See why Gartner is the world authority on AI Try out AskGartner for more AI-powered insights

    Human Moments That Matter in an AI‑Driven Customer Experience

    AI can answer faster, personalize at scale, and automate entire customer journeys, but it can't make someone feel seen. In this episode of ThinkCast, recorded from a live session at Gartner CIO Leadership Forum, Gartner Distinguished VP Analyst Don Scheibenreif explores why customer experience breaks down when efficiency overtakes empathy — and what CIOs can do to keep humanity at the center of AI‑driven design. Through real‑world stories from travel, retail, financial services and the public sector, Don shows how "moments of humanity" shape trust, loyalty and long‑term growth.   You'll learn: What happens when organizations over‑automate customer relationships How to recognize and design for moments that truly matter Where empathy fits into AI‑driven efficiency efforts Why CX challenges often stem from design decisions, not technology limits How CIOs can ensure AI enhances experiences without dehumanizing them   Dig deeper: Attend a Gartner CIO Conference near you See why Gartner is the world authority on AI Try out AskGartner for more AI-powered insights
