Helping leaders make better decisions with optimization, GenAI and quantum

Better Decisions in a Complex World: How Leaders Can Use GenAI, Quantum, and Optimization To Tackle Scenarios That Keep Them Up At Night  Business leaders are facing increasing uncertainty and must adapt plans quickly as as supply chains, tariffs, and forecasts shift faster than quarterly planning cycles can keep up. In this episode of CGI's From AI to ROI [https://www.cgi.com/en/from-AI-to-ROI-podcast-series] podcast series, host Helen Fang is joined by Dr. Parimal Kulkarni, [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/parimal-kulkarni] Director of AI, Data Science and Machine Learning, Dr. Mariolys Rivas [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/mariolys-rivas], Senior Data Scientist and Curtis Nybo [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/curtis-nybo], Director of AI and Quantum Computing to explore how optimization, GenAI and quantum work together to help leaders make better decisions and what actions they can take today.  The conversation begins by explaining optimization and the types of challenges it addresses, before exploring how generative AI is making optimization insights more accessible to executives and where quantum computing becomes the engine for solving the most complex, constraint-heavy problems.

Unlocking AI value: success beyond efficiency gains and tool adoption

Most organizations are measuring AI value the wrong way. While efficiency gains and productivity improvements matter, the leaders who are winning with AI have moved far beyond that conversation and backed it up with action.  In this episode of CGI’s From AI to ROI Podcast [https://www.cgi.com/en/from-AI-to-ROI-podcast-series], CGI's Christina Fung [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/christina-fung], Helena Jochberger [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/helena-jochberger], and Andrew Donaher [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/andrew-donaher] cut through the noise to share what's actually driving competitive advantage in the age of AI, drawing on frontline experience across manufacturing, government, healthcare and financial services. Learn why so many organizations remain stuck in proof-of-concept purgatory, why efficiency gains alone are not enough to measure AI success, and what leaders must do differently to close the value realization gap.

A conversation with Michelin: Scaling AI in software delivery

Building a plane while flying it one thing. But what happens when the blueprint redraws itself every month? That is the reality of software delivery in the age of AI.  In this episode of CGI's From AI to ROI [https://www.cgi.com/en/from-AI-to-ROI-podcast-series] podcast series (season 2, episode 4), host Fred Miskawi [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/frederic-miskawi], Vice-President and Global Applied AI Lead in CGI's CTO organization, is joined by Julien Millau, Distinguished IT Engineer and Architect at Michelin, and Kevin Beaugrand [https://www.cgi.com/en/experts/kevin-beaugrand], Director, Consulting Expert at CGI.  They explore what AI in the software development life cycle (SDLC) looks like in practice, not in theory, at Michelin, one of the world’s leading manufacturers. The conversation moves beyond tooling to examine the organizational, cultural and measurement approaches that determine whether AI ambition translates into real business outcomes.

Behind the Innovation (ft. Google): Turning AI ambition into reality in software delivery

In this episode of CGI's From AI to ROI podcast series, host Diane Gutiw AI Research Center Lead at CGI, is joined by Nicholas Morel from Google and Raghav Kumar from CGI to explore what's behind innovation in enterprise software delivery and why it matters for leaders. Drawing on real client experiences from industry and large-scale enterprise programs, they examine why most projects struggle to reach production, how the right governance culture accelerates rather than slows innovation and what the shift toward agentic AI means for the future of teams and organizations. This conversation dives into the lessons, mistakes and breakthroughs from both clients and CGI’s own AI journey.  Reach out to us with any feedback!

Beyond the Hype: Reimagining software delivery for real business value (part 2 of 2)

In the second part of this episode of CGI's From AI to ROI [https://www.cgi.com/en/from-AI-to-ROI-podcast-series] podcast series, host Dave Henderson, Chief Technology Officer at CGI, continues his conversation with John Davis and Victor Foulk — moving from strategic frameworks to concrete examples, emerging technology and a closer look at what the future of software delivery may hold. From a government agency that built a common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) platform in five days, to agentic AI swarms tackling decades of legacy tech debt, to the convergence of AI and quantum computing on the horizon, this episode brings the big ideas of Part 1 into practical focus. Together, they debate whether we are headed for a post-agile world, what meaningful human oversight of AI teams looks like in practice, and what action listeners should consider taking now.
