What is the Pragmatic AI Use Case Triage course about?
Mid-market teams face disproportionate pressure to deliver AI results with fewer resources, unclear frameworks, and competing priorities. Without a pragmatic triage process, energy is wasted on flashy but low-impact pilots that don’t scale or sustain.
