Why Most Companies Still Aren’t Winning with AI

In this episode of Future Chain, Michael Jung and Jess Williams unpack McKinsey’s latest research: The State of AI in 2025. While nearly every company today is using AI - and many are piloting agents - few have scaled it in ways that drive real enterprise value. The hosts explore what separates AI high performers from the rest. These leading firms aren’t just chasing cost savings. They’re redesigning workflows, investing in innovation, and embracing AI as a growth lever. But it comes with trade-offs. High performers report more workforce disruption and risk exposure - yet they’re also better at managing both. If AI is truly everywhere, why are most companies still stuck at the starting line?

AI Agents Are Becoming Infrastructure - Is Supply Chain Ready?

In this Future Chain episode, Michael Jung and Jess Williams dive into Anthropic’s new report, State of AI Agents, with a sharp focus on what it means for supply chain, procurement, and logistics leaders. The research shows a clear shift: AI agents are moving from lab experiments to core enterprise systems, driving multi-step automation in areas like data analysis, internal ops, and software development. Top-performing companies are already seeing financial gains and reducing manual effort, but success hinges on more than just deployment—it requires reinventing outdated workflows from the ground up. The hosts unpack lessons from sectors like healthcare and finance and explore what it will take for supply chain functions to fully capitalize on this agent-led future. Can logistics, procurement, and planning teams adapt fast enough? This is a public episode.

Beyond Copilots: Why Agentic AI Could Finally Deliver on the GenAI Promise

In this episode, Michael Jung and Jess Williams unpack McKinsey’s latest report, “Seizing the Agentic AI Advantage,” which explores the growing gap between generative AI adoption and measurable business impact. The conversation dives into the “GenAI paradox,” where companies embrace AI tools, but struggle to turn them into real ROI. The hosts explore how agentic AI, intelligent agents that proactively drive tasks, decisions, and collaboration, might be the key to breaking through. But unlocking that value means more than tech upgrades. It requires rethinking workflows, leadership, and governance from the ground up. Is your organization ready for the shift from copilots to autonomous agents? This is a public episode.

The Rise of AI Agents

In this episode, we explore McKinsey’s latest report on the rise of AI agents and their growing influence in enterprise operations. The discussion dives into how AI agents - autonomous software powered by generative AI—are evolving to handle complex tasks, automate workflows, and reimagine productivity. From personal assistants to full AI-native businesses, the episode unpacks how these agents function and the real-world impact they’re already making, including case studies like Lenovo. The conversation also covers the challenges of adoption—trust, change management, and data security - and what companies must do now to prepare their tech infrastructure for an agent-powered future.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
