Thinking AI: beyond tools to true transformation
An op-ed in The Statesman by Rahul Gupta and Dr. Jeewan Prakash Gupta, arguing that adoption and transformation are not the same thing.

Rahul Gupta and Dr. Jeewan Prakash Gupta published an op-ed in The Statesman making an argument we keep coming back to: buying AI and being changed by it are different events, and most organisations only manage the first.
